Thinking of how much of my grandmother was the matriarch of my family, I’d love to see a sweet/funny middle grade novel (any genre) with a substantial grandparent-grandchild dynamic!

My kingdom for more novels like THE GUNCLE, which belongs in a minigenre of "grief but FUN". Show me the hilarity of loss, the antics needed to snap out of brain fog, the awful ways in which people try to 'get it' #MSWL

#mswl BIPOC mythology! I don't know half as much as I should and I want stories that show me your glorious culture, your timeless stories, and your characters in all their facets. Bonus if it's gay (although strikes me all mythology should be gay!!)

“Psychology is perhaps my favorite field in nonfiction. I’d love to read stories about therapists and their patients in the vein of MAYBE YOU SHOULD TALK TO SOMEONE by Lori Gottlieb and GOOD MORNING, MONSTER by Catherine Gildiner.” @ceciliaclyra #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Happy #UPColorado Thursday! I'm (@AllegraMartsch) looking for digital #anthropology books, especially as they intersect with any of the fields the UPC consortium at large publishes in (democracy? Indigenous studies? Environmental justice?) Point me to scholars!

As much as my #MSWL currently asks for darker themes, I'd also love something cosy. If you have a MS that feels like a warm hug, please send it my way. I love playful writing and quirky characters :)

It's easily over 100° outside my house, in the sun, right now, mid-June. I know eco-thrillers are trendy right now, but walking outside fills me with enough dread to get by on. Where are my utopian climate future books? #MSWL

A #MSWL update; I'm opening the floodgates to paranormal romance. If you have a fresh take on PR (moving away from supernatural detectives and government officials preferably), I want it in my inbox. It could be funny, angsty, or somewhere in between!

In general, while I'm open to YA fantasy submissions, I would prefer fantasy that does NOT center around war, soldiers, or assassins. I love political intrigue, though, as well as emotional journeys. #MSWL

I'd be interested in a YA or MG cli-fi take along the lines of these photos.

In general, I'd like to see a YA near-future speculative take on where our world is headed. Light on the dystopia, heavy on the creative speculation. #MSWL
