Specifically, I'm looking for . . . #MSWL 6/?• Original, unforgettable characters with the potential to become universally beloved household names
• Expansive, unique & cinematic worlds—whether fantastical or a part of the real world that’s been underrepresented or that feels fresh through the creator’s eyes

Agents! It's been a loooong time since I've done an #MSWL on here, but what I'm acquiring has changed a lot since my last one, so I think it's about time to put a new one out there! Here we go . . . 1/?First off, I'm @DisneyBooks's resident graphic novel expert! We're looking to grow that list fast, so for the time being I am ONLY open to graphic novel submissions.
(Sorry, prose & picture book writers—but I'll see you with my IP pitches!) #MSWL 2/?

In all the endless breathless fictionalized takes on Jack the Ripper, have we ever done the one where the reason he disappeared was because a team of vengeful Victorian sex workers systematically hunted him down, took him out and dumped his body in the Thames?Editor

If I was an agent I think something that would be on the #mswl would be a Pirates of the Caribbean style YA except it's pirates from colonized lands going after the British Empire (@ericsmithrocks plz find this book and rep it thank you) pic.twitter.com/ge9r0SeIUAYASSSSS if any of y'all agents get this you better sell it to me when I'm at a house. #mswl

The stories of immigrants written by their children! My parents have an amazing love story that ties into how they came to the US, would love to write it one day for them + hear what other stories writers have had passed down onto them 💖 twitter.com/missdahlelama/…M. S. W. L! #mswl
