Oh, hey there! Editor @HCI_Books here. #agents and #writers send me your proposals for books that connect food-body-environment. Or maybe just body-environment. Or maybe just body-exercise. Loving these topics right now! #nonfiction #MSWl #publishing #gimme #writingcommmunity

Hey #writers and #agents of #nonfiction #selfhelp #wellness and #memoir I joined #MSWL, got some new glasses, and am ready to read some sweet new proposals-- 🤓manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/darc…

And, if you just have something REALLY good-- send it to me.

Books at the intersection of #health and #SocialJustice

Books that use cooking to tell stories...

Send me #memoirs of all types and stripes! Love me a good memoir....

Send me anything to do with education and health

And kids and nature-- physical and/or mental health

Also: the intersection of agricultural systems and health

Still looking for a book to help #caregivers of all kinds. They need an extra and different kind of support.

Okay-- I'd love a book about food. Really, anything to do with food. How we interact with it, how it contributes to our health/mental health, how to cook it, how it connects to our environmental health. #foodwriters what do you have?

First, though, the practical. Here's how to send us your proposal: hcibooks.com/editorial/

#MSWL As an @HCI_Books #editor and as a woman of a certain age who has recently had many conversations with my friends about perimenopause, I'd love to see something from #agents or #writers about this subject. Submission guidelines here: hcibooks.com/editorial/

I want to hear from a variety of voices and experiences, so let me have 'em!

And, in the oddly specific: I’d really love a book about how amazing dogs are for our mental health and happiness. Could be a memoir? Could be a how to deal with the grief when we lose one of these precious friends. Had to say goodbye to my best girl this summer. Here's my gem:

Books on mothers and daughters and parenting books, in general/

Also, I want books for caregivers of cancer patients (other types of patients, too!). It’s a special role, those caregivers, and they don’t get nearly the support they need/

Anything that is related to #cooking and food stories or #agricultural systems and our #health and #wellness /

As someone who would rather be on a mountain than anywhere else, I’d love to see anything that takes a look at the #environment and #health and #wellness. The more memoir and thoughtful, the better. Also, the more science-y because science is GOOD./
