Happy #MSWL day! I’m currently closed to queries BUT when I reopen on March 1st I would love to see-

•More YA stories
-I’m hungry for murderous cheerleaders- think I Know What You Did Last Summer x Bring It On

-I’m also in my lover girl era so give me those Jenny Han vibes

In my pursuit of a graphic novel for a reluctant middle grade reader I realized that there is a shortage of MG horror graphic novels that are RECENT, so with that in mind when I reopen to queries I want that - preferably with an illustrator already attached. Okay, bye! #MSWL

I am once again here to say if anyone is writing about the alleged cannibals in the Smoky Mountains National Park- I would like to see it, and so would an editor I spoke to…just in case you were wondering about my #MSWL when I reopen.👀

I was talking to an editor earlier today where I let it be known that I would love a poly rom com where they form an LLC to get tax benefits…so if you’ve written anything like that? Please send it to my inbox when I reopen. Thank yooooou. #mswl

I close to queries Friday but with that being said…if ANY OF YOU have a Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse story a la Sleepy Hollow? I am humbly begging you to send it to my inbox. Thank you. #MSWL

Across the board I want to see BIPOC literature, Fantasy, Graphic Novels, LGBTQ stories, Middle Grade, New Adult, and Adult. If one of my previous tweets feels like a fit please send your query to QueryManager.com/sheylaknigge
I can’t wait to read your stories!

Greek mythology/Retellings! Especially if they’re female protagonist centered and written for MG- kids are asking for that, I want to bring it to them!

I am CRAVING historical fiction- Da’Vinci’s Demons, Arthurian Legend, Stalking Jack the Ripper. Those vibes get me right in the soul. Send it my way!

I would LOVE to see graphic novels in my inbox! I am really looking for Over the Garden Wall, Hilda, Star Vs The Forces of Evil. If you think Netflix or Disney would eat it up? Send it my way!

I am LOVING spooky- tis the season. I would love a murderous bunch of teenagers, or a whodunit in the vein of 13 Reasons Why or Ashnikko’s Cheerleader. Give me intrigue, give me drama, give me murder. Make me ask questions!

Gimme all your witches! It is fall, it is spooky, but your book doesn’t have to be. Send me the witches who are agents of chaos and THRIVING as such. Send me the witches that want to burn the world down. If you’ve got witches, I wanna see them!

Good morning #amquerying writers! The time has come that I am FINALLY open to queries! If you haven’t had a chance to check out my #MSWL this thread is here to give you a little insight as to what I’m looking for!

Anybody working on anything Sleepy Hollow adjacent they might wanna send my way when I open on October second?👀 #MSWL

I’m opening to queries soon and I’m really craving a graphic novel in the vein of Over the Garden Wall or Hilda #MSWL

If anyone has some Medici/Da Vinci-esque stories they’re working on…I would love to see it.👀 #mswl
