Hi! I’m putting it out into the universe that I‘d love to acquire more middle grade novels! I want to find strong personalities and big hearts, stories about finding confidence and discovering friendship, magical stories, contemporary tales, amplifying marginalized voices. #MSWL

Shout out and huge thank you to Ray for their amazing research here!

We need more trans stories!

When I reopen to queries, I'd love to see your trans stories in any age range and genre, please!

you know if this was a rom com, this would have been my meet cute. And...if someone tries to write this as YA where a teen signs into the wrong school's distance learning on the first day and meets a boy, I need to agent it... wth... #mswl

Horror, queer and POC, will be top of my #mswl when I open in a couple weeks!

“YA non-fiction: Memoir, essay collections, you name it. Queer There & Everywhere is probably my favorite YA non-fic title in recent memory, and a great example of what I’d like to see.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

Early morning #MSWL tweets, as the toddler has been up since 6.

YA that celebrates neurodiversity, from writers who are (can’t stress that enough) neurodivergent.

Fiction and memoir from (stressing again) adoptees, on the adoptee experience.

Say hi! ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

I would LOVE to see middle grade contemporary stories about families, friendship, or broken friendships. Bonus points for humor and/or mischievous main characters. #MSWL #LGBTQ+ #BIPOC #amquerying #WritingCommunity

ADDING THIS TO MY #MSWL! Our teens NEED a book like this in their lives!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Black Youth-Owned Vegan Eatery Opens in Florida vegnews.com/2020/8/black-y… via @VegNews

This could also be narrative nonfic if you are the outdoorsy superhuman in question! #MSWL

One of my dream #MSWL items is an adventure novel that reads like a film like FREE SOLO or THE BARKLEY MARATHONS feels. An edge-of-your-seat outdoors story with near-superhuman athleticism. I’ve spent all of quar hiking & watching ALONE so I’ve had too much time to dwell on this.

Y'all, I'm going to really focus on MG when I reopen in a couple weeks. Just a heads up on the #amquerying crowd. #MSWL

Updated my #MSWL page! This fall (HOW IS IT ALREADY FALL!!) I'm especially looking for (agented) sharply funny fiction, heartfelt contemporary YA, and diverse thrillers & suspense.

Netflix is reading my mind! Or maybe my #mswl. 😆

Amazing #WritingCommunity, I'm closing my box on 9/1 to focus on my clients' MS, & to catch up on those that have already submitted. I will be open for conferences, R&R requests, & may peek at #PitMad. But, I'll fully open again in Oct. For my #MSWL, go to manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/jemi…

#mswl: Don't you think the heist story Madison Ferris suggests here sounds fun? Have you written something similar in an SFF setting? Please send it on! nytimes.com/2020/08/25/t-m…

So I've mentioned to a few people how lately instead of looking for escapism I gravitate more than ever toward books about loss & grief & suffering, in my need to feel less alone with the emotions. In thinking what this means for my worklife and my #mswl --
