#MSWL I’m particularly excited to discover stories by and about underrepresented voices in all of the genres I’m looking for, and will be prioritizing those submissions

#MSWL Horror! I'm still loving horror of all flavors, but I’d love to see more high concept horror that turns tropes on their head to stand out amongst the crowd

#MSWL Speculative book club fiction where one thing is changed about the world, and how that influences the characters and society around them. Think THE MEASURE, NEVER LET ME GO, THE MERGE, or SEVERANCE (the tv show)

#MSWL Genre-bending with a stellar one-line hook! I adore reading surprising genre mashups, especially in the fantasy, SF, and horror spaces, or something fun like HOW TO KILL A GUY IN TEN DATES

This is a high priority for me in YA in particular!

Happy #MSWL Day! Pasting the link to my wish list for when I open in spring (dates TBD), along with a thread of a few specific things I'd love to see in both adult and YA!

For middle-grade (novels and GNs), I lean toward mysteries and puzzles. Light spookiness is okay, but nothing too scary creepy for me, please! Think THE GHOST OF SPRUCE POINT by Nancy Tandon (nancytandon.bsky.social, one of my clients) and GHOST SQUAD by Claribel A. Ortega.

#MSWL

I would love a really smart kind of island horror like Hemlock Island by Kelley Armstrong. #MSWL

I will be open to queries in the first week of March and the first week of April. I hope to hear from you!

Happy #MSWL Day!
I love it when a story has me googling at 1am because I cannot believe it is real
I want your strange corners of history, your niche obsessions, & your flawed but lovable characters who feel painfully human. I want to learn something & be completely captivated along the way

Hello and happy #MSWL day!

I looked at this list again to see if there was anything I wanted to add to it or my #MSWL (there was! I added one new item to the "cravings" page and linked to that page and the "likes" page on my general MSWL)...and what I wouldn't do for stories that hit one or more of these things 🙏🙏🙏

As a history and foreign language teacher, I’m drawn to prehistoric, ancient, medieval, and modern history, especially the cultural side. I focus on art, traditions, beliefs, music, and other expressions that show how societies interact, evolve, and contribute to one another. #MSWL

Happy #MSWL , #writingcommunity ! Sharing what I look for, recent reads, and my favorite authors.

Don't see your book in my #MSWL ? No worries! I want to see your work if it has a compelling voice, pacing, and plot.

Since it's #MSWL day and I intend to open to queries soon (as soon as I finish considering the submissions still in my inbox!), I updated my #MSWL profile:

I like 19th and 20th century historical fiction, especially if it's combined with another genre, like mystery, speculative or horror. #MSWL

I enjoy books with a psychological bent, whether it's psychological horror, a nonfiction book about psychology, or just a book with really rich characters. #MSWL

#MSWL I'm over winter and ready for some summer vibes in my reading. Romance? Yes! Horror? Yes! Give me two people falling in love at the beach or bad things happening at summer camp. I'm open!

#MSWL Witches! In all kinds of stories. Cozy, dark, horror, romance, historical, mystery, dual timelines, literally whatever you got, I want to see it.
