#amquerying writers, I only have 3 queries left! Send more! I'm currently looking for adult mystery, romance (esp historical & diverse historical), women's fiction, and upmarket projects, as well as nonfiction on the topics of food, material culture, & social history. #mswl

Your semi-regular reminder that I am always interested in stories about food, be they fiction or nonfiction. #MSWL

8 Food Books to Read This Summer 2018 | Bon Appetit bonappetit.com/story/8-non-co…

Bumping my #MSWL post from March since it still applies. I'm especially looking for historical romance, cozy and historical mysteries, and nonfiction. #amquerying and #amwriting authors, send me your lovelies!

A quick reminder that I am always open to projects like these! If you have a book about food, fiction or nonfiction, I want to see it. #mswl

Someone PLEASE write about Virginia Irwin and then query me. It's a story that would work in both fiction and nonfiction. #MSWL

#MSWL Madness continues over on the BookEnds blog, and my post is up today! Go take a peek to get an idea of what I'm currently looking for. #amwriting #amquerying

Further to my earlier #mswl posts, the Gravy podcast is one of my very, very favorites. If you're writing a narrative nonfiction book in this vein, I'd love to see it. #amwriting #amquerying

In narrative nonfiction, I'd love to see more food-centered books, especially those exploring forgotten aspects of our food history or that look at the intersections of race, feminism, and food. Think THE COOKING GENE or WHAT SHE ATE.

As a general reminder, I rep adult romance, mystery, women's, and upmarket fiction, and have a deep and abiding love for historical fiction across all genres. I also rep narrative nonfiction, especially on topics like the literary world, food, material culture, & social history.

There were South Asians in London during the Regency period. I'd like to read their stories. Mystery, romance, HistFic, NF. #MSWL

I'm going to keep sending this one out until a manuscript or NF proposal lands in my inbox. #MSWL

If you have a NF project that looks at forgotten history of food in this way, I will always want to see it. #MSWL

Super specific #mswl: Narr NF in the style of Tony Horwitz or Bill Bryson which focuses on The Wilderness Road. Anybody have that??

Always looking for NF like Tony Horwitz or Buck’s THE OREGON TRAIL. Bonus pts if it has a lit angle such as THE WILDER LIFE. #mswl

Always looking for narrative NF exploring material culture. Think Lutz's THE BRONTE CABINET or Johnson's LIVES IN RUINS. #mswl
