I’m also wanting more regional gothic overall as well as gothic stories that don’t take place in the US. Some media I’ve loved w/ similar vibes: “Preacher’s Daughter” by Ethel Cain; EVE’S BAYOU; MEXICAN GOTHIC by Silvia Moreno-Garcia; I’LL MAKE A SPECTACLE OF YOU by Beatrice Winifred Iker #MSWL

Another sort of specific ask, and this could be to any genre I'm open to, is a YA based around a swimming or water polo team! I used to coach swim and would love to have something that brings me back poolside! #mswl

In YA specifically, I'm really looking for a good mystery! Give me a modern day and diverse Scooby doo crew. Happens at a summer camp? Yes please. #mswl

On the complete opposite end, I've been craving a cozy sci fi romance! Especially if it has food involved and even more say if it's queer! This could be adult or YA! #mswl

Something specific I've been looking for is an adult or YA sci fi horror. I want to be terrified in space! Make me scared of the black empty void and what may stare back in the far reaches. #mswl

Okay! I am back after a busy morning at day job. First thing for #mswl day is my most up to date wishlist found on the Manuscript Wish List website!

This is the best place to start to see what I'm open to! It is also where I talk about my anti-mswl, genres I don't rep and my fave books/shows.

As always, I'm interested in finding projects from writers and illustrators who are part of traditionally marginalized groups. I especially love to see books that incorporate unique elements from their heritage. For every age group I represent, board book to YA. A forever #MSWL .

I would love to find more cozy fantasy for YA/MG, and just cozy books in general. When the world is a dumpster fire, sometimes we just need a little escape where there are still stakes and things to do, but in a way that doesn't cause massive anxiety. #MSWL

I'm definitely looking for more submissions from people who write and illustrate graphic novels. #MSWL I've found I don't connect as strongly with just graphic novel texts, which is why I usually prefer to see sample pages of graphic novels from author-illustrators, for any children's age group.

Nonfic: I really want to work with someone writing about cultural spiritual practices. Like from a grounded, researched approach that is not aiming to make it necessarily more accessible but aiming to capture the roots and history of the practice. #mswl

I would love to see something more upmarket that plays around with media and time the way Daisy Jones’s and the Six does. #mswl

Also anything that gives me the feeling of Bartimaeus by Jonathan Stroud. A genuinely funny, sarcastic MC, a fleshed-out world (either based in ours or not), and lovable character dynamics. #MSWL

#MSWL I really want something like The Last Hour Between Worlds or Voyage of the Damned. A mystery set in a fantasy world, where powers make it more complicated to figure out the 'whodunnit.' Bonus points for a time loop

Not open right now, but I hope to be by the end of spring. What I really want to see is #ADULT #crossgenre stories. #Scifi romance, horror romance, humorous #litRPG w/a horror element. Weird, quirky, spicy is okay, just no abuse, rape, or animal death.
