Everything on my MSWL, the CMA website, and my old tweets still stand. But as a quick update, this year I’m especially looking for… #MSWL

#MSWL something like the Goonies for the YA market. (Yes, I am watching it as we speak).

Last year was GREAT for @SkylarkLit & I am looking forward to this year being even better! I’m excited to discover more fantastic new books & authors & help them find fabulous publishing homes! So, lovely writers - send me your manuscripts & let’s get this party started! 🤗🎉🥂I am especially keen to find YA mysteries & love stories, anything with an unreliable narrator & voicey MG characters who know their own minds! 🤗 I love historical & also contemporary adventures with a twist! Glorious writing is top of my wishlist - ALWAYS! #MSWL

Tomorrow i will do an #MSWL ahead of reopening to queries.
Upfront, i am going to be only looking for YAs for a while since my list needs are specific at the moment.

This has been a heavy week for the passing of influential people, and certainly retrospectives on either Barbara Walters' or Vivienne Westwood's work are at the top of my 2023 #MSWL. Their accomplishments should be honoured, critiqued, and memorialized.

#MSWL for 2023: AKA what I'd like to see in my agent inbox scribblesandwanderlust.com/2022/12/30/msw…
Literary Agent
For the new year, in addition to my forever #MSWL on the ArtHouse page, in 2023, I’m looking for some specifics!!:
- picture book nonfiction
- narrative nonfiction/memoirs (think MAID)
- middle grade National Treasure with non-founding father artifacts
- adult Black romance

Just finished "Some Kind of Hate" by @SarahDarerLitt and...wow...I'm blown away. This needs to be required reading in every high school to start conversations that will hopefully tamp down the hate and divisiveness we are experiencing. #Antisemitism @ccsdschools #MSWL

Still looking for creators writing abolitionist works - been thinking a lot about what I'd like to represent in the adult and children's nonfiction space, and talking about inadequacies of our court and prison systems is very important to me as a human #mswlI know MOST about this from a US perspective, but open to any nationality or court/prison system. Really just want to talk about, think about, and learn about abolition. #mswl

With 2023 on the horizon, I’m planning out threads to write in the coming weeks. So, #WritingCommunity, what questions do you want addressed? What are your biggest concerns and frustrations? What do you most need help with? #amquerying #amwriting #MSWL

Also, if you use science as an explanation for anything in your manuscript, you must be exceptionally diligent, I don’t do pseudoscience.

I’m generally not a good match for predictable romance or the paranormal.
I think stories where the protagonist has to have a loved one maimed for them to reach their climactic epiphany feel cheap.

Make me laugh! I especially love witty banter.
I prefer stories that convey subtle wisdom that teach something or leave my perspective forever altered and also well-rounded, unexpected characters.

I love histories about real, bad@$$, quirky, or hilarious women who defied societal expectations. Come at me with a (well-researched) story about Julie d'Aubigny, Wu Zetian, Cheng I Sao, or Anne Bonny and Mary Read's unusual friendship, anything in that vein.

Now back open to submissions in a limited capacity.
Sabrina loves to learn and is looking for fresh perspectives; come at me, authors from historically marginalized backgrounds (anything from non-fiction to crazy fantasy).
