My adult #MSWL is similar to my kidlit wants! I’m very interested in non-memoir non fiction (though I’m always open to a good memoir), uplifting literary fiction, and fun genre fiction that pushes boundaries and/or offers something innovative. See previous post about what I DON’T want. Open on 6/1.

I represent #kidlit of all kinds, but what I’m most interested in receiving in my inbox when we are #opentoqueries on 6/1 is: uplifting contemporary YA, non-fiction for all age groups written in compelling prose, projects from author/illustrators, and novels-in-verse! #MSWL

"I'm seeking nonfiction books with a deep dive into uncommon or unconventional industries, jobs, or programs."

Just a random #MSWL item - if you have
a romance that can be comped to Taylor Swift’s I Can See You *music video* then I NEED to see it.

"Nonfiction proposals with an intersectional feminist angle immediately catch my attention. A few issues I'd like to see examined: occupational segregation, equal pay, and emotional labor."
CeCe Lyra #MSWL

My #MSWL categories as we open for queries on 6/1: I’m happy to read both fiction and non-fiction for children and adults in all genres except: erotica, true crime, political non-fiction, very grisly horror, and AI generated works. #amagenting

I am #opentoqueries until the end of June!
I am looking for:
-Romance (especially paranormal!)
-Coming-of-Age
-LGBT+
-Commercial fiction

A plus if any of the genres above feature Black protagonists, and I love characters that feel ALIVE.

#MSWL post! When we open to queries in 6/1 you’ll want to follow these guidelines to submit: www.dunhamlit.com/how-to-submit I’ll post more specifics about what I’m looking for right now in the coming days!

"I want an LGBTQIA+ novel in the vein of ONE DAY, A LOVE SONG FOR RICKI WILDE (high concept, unique structure, deep and sweeping love story)."
Carly Watters #MSWL

psst . . . I'M OPENING TO QUERIES ON 5/27✨

#mswl reminder: I am still on the hunt for standout trans/genderqueer voices, particularly in YA but also MG, from speculative to gorgeously written coming-of-age. My partner is trans/nb, I’m genderfluid, and I will never stop championing genderqueer authors

"I want Gothic horror, space horror, folk horror, psychological horror, supernatural horror, slasher horror – scare me!"
Rose Ferrao #MSWL

I'm not open to queries and don't have a date (though I see a glimmer of light in the tunnel) but I want a really good, really florida, cryptid book so bad. I'm talking Ocala national forest, non-tourist everglades, lake okeechobee, etc born & raised writing the weirdest my state has to offer #mswl

High concept picture books #MSWL

"Send me upmarket genre fiction: fantasy, grounded science fiction, magical realism, and horror."
mariavicente.com #MSWL

This might be an exception, but I’d be open to a cozy/or high tension contemporary romance that specifically has themes of nature, eco-centric premise, & lovely prose. Give me women in STEAM; Marine Biologists, conservationists, archeologists, park rangers, etc. #MSWL

"Send me any books fitting of Taylor Swift's Reputation era. I love books about female rage and would love to see the 'unhinged woman' narrative with BIPOC characters."
Nour Sallam #MSWL

Heist or mystery/thriller but make it picture book #MSWL

"Send me immigrant stories that recontextualize intergenerational trauma from a modern perspective."
