“Fun, joyful YA about teens from marginalized groups out there having hijinks, falling in love, getting spells wrong, etc.” @kurestinarmada #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

I am still, and always, looking for smart, fun YA. I like it all: Rom coms, friendship stories, siblings stories. Well written and smart, make me laugh and cry. #MSWL.

I am not on this list but I love graphic novels and have been closing good deals for them and I want more and more and please oh please my heart my soul send them my way. #MSWL

Can't begin to describe how fundamentally I disagree with this. My door is ALWAYS open to these stories. I want all kinds of experiences to be validated through literature, not just the ones we've historically made room for or found more palatable. #MSWL on.wsj.com/2MY0HdU

And an epic romance in fantasy. #MSWL

I also really want an atmospheric magical realism book in MG or YA. #MSWL

A reminder that I really want a MG about being a child of an immigrant. Something from Crazy Rich Asians that hit home to me was this line (summarized for space):

"You may look Chinese and speak Chinese, but not here (head) or here (heart)." #MSWL

I need more foody books in my life. #mswl

#MSWL

Yes. I would. #askagent #MSWL

Bumping this from last year 'cause I still want it. #mswl

I'd rather you all know what to do before you send a query than get passed over because it doesn't make sense for the genre or age group. #MSWL #amwriting #amquerying #litagent #mg

I am looking for upmarket or literary speculative fiction like STATION ELEVEN, but I'm not right for straight fantasy or SFF. #MSWL So yes, I might be right for this, but I would only know if I read the query.

As a native Pittsburgher and a volunteer in the conservation lab at the @MorganLibrary, this is a SUPER #MSWL for me, in fiction or nonfiction!

Hey #amquerying #authors, we're all caught up on #queries as of 8/29. Send us your complex protagonists, your I-wish-I'd-thought-of-that concepts, your I'd-know-that-voice-anywhere writing. #mswl #amagenting Guidelines here: susannalea.com/submissions/

As you know I've been on the hunt for more #ownvoices and #diversebooks in nonfiction & fiction in mystery, suspense, thriller, upmarket & literary, & women's fiction. #MSWL

I'll be quite honest, I'm tired of the white, male, straight cop. It isn't that I won't read or consider, I'm just bored and I don't want to be bored. Give me the lesbian mother fighting for her child or the POC cop. Give me more women and give me something I haven't seen #MSWL

I'd also like to see fun, sweary, powerful, in your face self-help nonfiction--like YOU ARE A BADASS or THE SUBTLE ART OF NOT GIVING A F**CK, but I'd like them to be written by women. #MSWL

Give me GONE GIRL (for lack of a better comp) with POC, give me OTHER PEOPLE'S HOUSES with POC, give me the LGBTQ version of BIG LITTLE LIES, give me NEXT YEAR IN HAVANA, give me CRAZY RICH ASIANS #MSWL

I would love to see more POC & LGBTQ characters starring in all of these areas. I want them living their best (or not best) lives, but I'm not as interested in coming out stories as such. #MSWL
