Something similar to the NATIONAL TREASURE, THE MUMMY, or INDIANA JONES movies #MSWL could be a twist in any age group

#MSWL update--please bring me your lighthouse books. Spooky or romantic, murdery or historical. I'm open to it all.

The town I spent every summer in had a gas station that had a lot of groceries and a lunch counter. That was our grocery store and the only restaurant in town.

I want a book set in that kind of town written by someone who lived there. #mswl

Hello #WritingCommunity! New year, New #MSWL Send me your: high concept thrillers🕵️, page turning women's fiction 👭, general fiction with a palpable romance 🫶, and life changing non fiction ⚡️

I'm a total softie who releases all the spiders in my house, but this is truly a touching story. Is this a picture book yet? #mswl

"My taste in nonfiction is eclectic: no title is too serious or too accessible. And I'm open to all categories *except* for sports, music, and true crime."

I'm slowly catching up on my requested reading and planning to reopen to submission Feb 1st!

I'll put together a little twitter #mswl for what I'm on the hunt for. I know the timing's right because I'm really excited to see new queries! 🥹🥹

I would love to see a horror submission that takes inspiration from the Great God Pan - give me unearthly awakenings, sinister horned gods and eerie woodlands #MSWL

Did I watch this more than once? Maybe. 😅 Give me books with all your lumberjanes. #mswl

Quick note: I’m pulling back on PBs quite a bit. Last year they easily took over my query inbox (nearly ⅔ of my submissions were PBs!), and I’m hoping to balance out my list this year. I’m still open to PBs but will mostly be looking for author/illustrator projects.

Things I DON’T love/DO NOT want to see: plots that center around communication issues, white saviorism, really intense world building, super scary horror, rhyming for the sake of rhyming, blatant abusive relationships

Things I DO love/DO want to see: fun settings that push the story along (museums, resorts, amusement parks, public transit, etc.), wholesome cinnamon rolls, anti-capitalist themes, non-western mythology, school trips, smashing the patriarchy, found family, cozy fantasies

#MSWL

Things I DO love/DO want to see: unconventional magic systems, astronomy, page-turning thrillers, queer love, passionate characters w/ uncommon hobbies, enemies-to-lovers, friendship breakups, teen sleuths, stories not set in the US, body positivity, zombies

#MSWL

The main things I’m on the lookout for are:
📗 High concept fiction w/ a quirky cast of characters (MG & YA/all genres)
📘Bold & magical graphic novels (MG & YA/all genres)
📙Fresh & fascinating narrative nonfiction (MG & YA)

#MSWL

Hi friends! I'm open to queries & can't wait to see the amazing projects that land in my inbox this year. 🥰
