Competitions! I looooove books with competitions, especially when they're speculative: The Hunger Games, A Gathering of Shadows, Caraval, The Selection. I'm a big fan. #mswl

I see so many things comped to Naomi Novik that those comps have kind of lost meaning for me, but nevertheless I love romantic and literary fantasy that draws from folklore, especially if it's interrogating heavier topics, as SPINNING SILVER interrogates antisemitism. #mswl

I represent fiction cover artists, as well as middle grade and picture books artists. Love this dreamy new portfolio piece by Amanda Quartey 🔥 thebrightagency.com/us/publishing/… 🎨 #mswishlist #mswl #fiction

Horror! Things that keep me awake at night! If it can comp to MEXICAN GOTHIC or Hill House/Bly Manor (or Pan's Labyrinth, my perennial fave), I want to see it! #mswl

Historical with fabulist elements. Think Alice Hoffman — literary prose, a sharply defined setting, just a hint of magic. #MSWL

Picture books! I've had a blast working on picture book texts recently and I'd love to see more of them.

I like fresh concepts with strong illustration potential and language that pops. #MSWL

I am obsessed with houses born bad. I'd love to see more ghost stories (MG and adult) with a house as a major character! #mswl

“Pop psychology & fun self help projects, especially from a qualified position (i.e. therapist, psychologist, life coach, etc). I love books that can provide tangible ways to improve yourself, while also being considered a fun read.” @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

On my eternal #mswl is a romcom (YA or Adult) where one of the MCs is a Type I diabetic.

This request brought to you by the fact that my new insurance requires prior authorization on the insulin that I’ve been using for over 20 years. So now I get to pay more to stay alive.

Send me all your Goose Girls #MSWL

Very excited to read THE UPSTAIRS House by Julia Fine! And #MSWL, which is probably already abundantly clear from my feed--if it's weird & about motherhood, I want it!

#MSWL A queer historical novel about these women!

Just re-watched Akeelah and the Bee and remembered how much I LOVED it as a child. Like, 10 yo me could not stop saying "pulchritude." It has its problems, but its hopeful message and diverse cast are things I NEED RIGHT NOW. If you have MG like this, please give it to me #mswl

I am overjoyed to launch my website! naomidavisbooks.com

I'm not *quite* done adding all my clients (who want to be on there), but I believe in transparent access to information about literary agents, including our deal history and #MSWL.
And of course... Mr. Noodles pics!

One thing that I am constantly on the look-out for in my inbox: stories within the Asian American community that focuses on body-positivity, for both YA and Adult. Please feel free to flood my inbox with them! #MSWL

Win an ARC! A wonderful debut that is my #MSWL. :)
