Carolina Ortiz

Also, seems like the perfect time to share my #MSWL at carolinaiortiz.com/manuscript-wis… Looking forward to seeing those submissions come in!

And agent colleagues, if it's been a minute since we've connected or have never had the chance before, I'm always up for a call or zoom coffee 😁

THIS!!! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 If a trope and/or trend has "already been done” but it's never been done by BIPOC authors, I want to read it 💜 This is forever on my #MSWL

Hey agent friends! I've been really craving some more middle grade submissions in my inbox. I love stories that focus on friendship, family, and culture--regardless of genre--with an eye towards projects by authors from the margins. Please send me your MGs 🙏🏼 #mswl

One of my summer goals was to make a website, and I finally did it: carolinaiortiz.com! Check out my deal announcements and updated #mswl 🧐 And agents, if it's been a while since we've chatted, I'm always happy to reconnect, as well as meet new agents 👀

What do my eyes behold 😍 Vampires, horror, and a POC cast--this is #mswl all the way

I'm such an easy mark for this trope in a submission. I fall for it every time #mswl

Also to no ones surprise, I'm a big, BIG, B I G Jane Austen fan so if any YA reimagining subs are out there, they're always welcomed in my inbox #mswl

Between my new found love for Oumi Janta and binge-watching Betty, I am so ready for some rollerblading/skateboarding YA magic to happen #mswl

Something I would love to see is plus-sized protags in graphic novels proposals for children. It's rare to this representation in prose novels but even rarer to see it in visual mediums. #mswl

Never Have I Ever truly destroyed me--I haven't cried this hard over a show in a while. But can I just say, seeing a girl of color being able to make a wide array of mistakes and still get a happy-ish ending really does something for me--more stories like this please #mswl

Oh #TheHalfOfIt, you are everything I knew you would be and more. I adore Ellie's journey, her path to finding herself. An ideal coming-of-age story and I want more like it #mswl

Agent friends! Please know that I would love to see more middle grade, young adult, and graphic novel projects from trans women and trans POC #mswl

My kingdom for a YA historical or fantasy submission like this written by a trans POC 🙏🏼 #mswl

Soooo I'm just going to pop in to say that a Sisterhood of Traveling Pants like friendship story with an all queer and/or POC cast of character has been on my #mswl for aaaawhile.

Wasn’t expecting to specifically have a NEED for a YA mariachi romance lead but ya know what here we are #mswl

Watching Shrill just reminds how desperately I need some POC plus sized protags in my YA and MG #mswl

Also, feels like the right time to mention by #MSWL page bit.ly/2GlqYhZ 😉Check out all the many wonderful things I would love to see on submission!

To any agent who may see this, please please please send me more submissions by Latinx creators. I am always looking for Latinx middle grade, YA, and graphic novels. #MSWL here 😉manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/caro…

A reminder to all that I am ALWAYS looking for own voices genderqueer, trans, and non-binary submissions in children’s and across genres #mswl

Y’all, please please please send me some Latinx magic submissions in 2020 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 #mswl
