Seeing several writers talking about their fear that their queer girl books won’t sell and how that’s stopping them. Please write these stories, find agents, etc. who will champion them. I certainly want to see them and I know SO MANY other editors who do as well. Please 💕🙏🏾Queer girl books are always on my #mswl! Send 'em over here.

YA/MG/WF that has something true to say about friendship -- either friend break-ups OR true ride-or-die friends a la Emery Lord's bks. #mswlLGBTQ YA/MG/adult fiction with a strong hook & a compelling, page-turning plot (like my client @Kelly_J_Ford's COTTONMOUTHS!) #mswl

I want historical WF w/ big story--maybe loosely based on an underdiscussed real person from history? Show me the past in a new light. #mswlAnd last (perpetual #mswl), send me LGBTQ bks w plots NOT centered on homophobia/coming out. Queer folks as protags of all kinds of stories!

SF/F where LGBTQ+ is and has always been seen as a natural part of the world. Worlds that don't reflect our current bias. #MSWLAnd also this, but for YA. (Reminder that I don't rep adult SFF.) #mswl twitter.com/notjustanybogg…

#mswl Page-turning literary fiction w/ LBTQ MCs, abt more than coming out/being closeted. Think Sarah Waters' novels or Ariel Scrag's ADAM.
