I want a whole novel with exactly this vibe, including the nail-biting battery indicator. #MSWL

I’d LOVE to see MG and YA contemporary graphic novel scripts (magical realism is good too). Author only, author/illustrator, or team—I’ll look at all. #MSWL #WritingCommunity #diversity #inclusive Query me via Query Manager.

Over at #MSWL, I've got a little list of what I'm looking for up, as well as some musings about the importance of LGBTQIA2S+ books!

Prepping my #MSWL fall edition and realizing I'm feeling High Concept Contemporary or Contemporary Adjacent lately...

I'm usually an all sci-fi/fantasy, all the time kinda editor.

BUT...

Right now I would *kill* for an OUTER BANKS-esque YA⁠—a soapy contemporary adventure/survival story, particularly one with a strong focus on class divide...

Agents, hit me up! #mswl

I am open to queries again! Check out my updated #MSWL. Seeking:
⭐️NF: memoir, narrative, pop science, self-help, cookbook
⭐️ F: literary, upmarket, horror, thriller, low-fantasy, high-fantasy adventure
⭐️ YA: low fantasy, rom-com, detectives, creepy

A magical #MSWL tweet from @BookEndsJessica!

"I want something whimsical and myth-based, but grounded in the real world. Especially fabulism or magical realism. I recently took on a book that's like an adult CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS, and I LOVE it! I want more."

Notice the trend 😂😢🤣🥹😭😆 -- please read that as ALL emotions. Speaking of THE END: /FIN but please view the submissions tab on our website. And if you decide to submit, I look forward to reviewing your work! 🥳

In YA & MG (incl GNs):
* Diverse contemporary stories that are authentic instead of trendy
* Novels that are by & about people whose tales are yet untold
* Soulful, insightful, & well-crafted projects
* Stories that leave me cackling 😆 or sobbing 😭 long after I've read THE END

In PBs:
* Thought-provoking or entertaining stories, but not ones whose aim is to teach a lesson
* Unique characters w/ a very specific & kid-centric point of view
* Marginalized voices that allow the reader to feel seen & heard
* Narratives that make me giggle 🤣 or tear up 🥹

Illustrators:
* Skillful portfolio w/ interconnected illustrations that accurately represent the world we live in
* Stand-out characters & scenes that compel a reader to turn the page
* Artists w/ an easily-recognizable signature look
* Images that make me laugh 😂 or cry 😢

🎉 Thrilled to tweet that I am once again open to queries.

I represent passionate authors & illustrators who wholeheartedly believe in the power of storytelling for young readers (including YA!).

My #MSWL for 2022 includes (simplified ... because ... Twitter 😅):

I’d love to see more speculative adult fiction in my inbox. Magical realism, grounded fantasy, cozy fantasy, rom coms. Think “a little bit of magic and a whole lot of heart” and that’s my cup of tea.✨ #MSWL

Sunday #MSWL: I'm DYING to represent an abolitionist procedural or mystery. Justice in resistance to the police/prison state, and/or the pursuit of justice in a place without police/prisons.

Adult fiction or NNF, speculative elements welcome. DMs open!

If anyone has a hot take on this concept, I’m here for it. #MSWL

Um yes. Me too. #mswl

“I’d love to see a voicey spin doctor narrative in adult fiction. Think the energy of the Good Wife's Eli Gold.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

I'm open to submissions as of today: querymanager.com/query/1550

I'm looking for adult novels (historical, mystery/thriller, fantasy, bookclub fiction) and narrative NF. Please check my wishlist for more details. #mswl manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/alic…
