If my username didn't tip you off, it's definitely a bonus if your kidlit project is funny! I love comedies, parodies, satires, and witty adventure stories. I prefer hopeful and fun stories, so if your book makes me cry it probably also needs to make me laugh. #MSWL

#Latinx stories please from #Latinx creators

High-concept setups with emotional depth

Romance with a side of adventure

An epic forbidden romance with big emotions

Historical fantasy with a diverse bent and lots of magic #mswl 2/6

It's #MSWL day! I'm looking for fiction: propulsive and atmospheric crime fiction, immersive historical adventures, myth-based fantasy. I adore: Dark, macabre atmosphere; creatives as MCs; outdoor adventures & more! I open to Qs on the 10th of each month.

#MSWL day

6) This one is super specific - fantasy Dirk Pitt (by Clive Cussler) adventures (ideally feat. a female protagonist)

Science/magic forward, death defying, taking on billionaires, incredible adventure

(Please no military/colonial fantasies/exploitation/Islamaphobia - we know better)

✨I'M OPEN TO GRAPHIC NOVELS✨
Here is a visual #mswl for what I'd love to see in my inbox 👀

In kid lit I'm looking for...voicey identity driven middle grade, romance with cultural significance, adventure fantasy with knights, coming of age in international settings #mswl

In graphic novels I'm looking for...cinematic panel sequences, buddy adventure fantasy, dreamy solar punk sci-fi coming of age through language, speculative cultural narratives, stories where places feels like a character #mswl

Would love to come across a fantasy with a sense of cozy whimsy with some high character stakes/action/adventure as seen in the game SILKSONG in my inbox 🤍 #MSWL

Niche #MSWL desire would be a blend of family-drama and Scooby-Doo antics/adventure with a hunt for cryptids. The search for chupacabra or moth-man while dealing with siblings relationships? Send my way!

Still looking for my Greig Beck/ James Rollins/ Matthew Reilly style Action & Adventure. Please...I'm begging.

Big romantasy along the lines of SJM or Armentrout. I love Fae but I'm being overwhelmed by them and Prince/ Princess/ Assassin storyline. If you pitch me one please make it stand out.

3) Artemis Fowl, but for adults

4) Dungeons & Dragons inspired fantasy that has the adventure and whimsy and puzzles, and most importantly the absolute dumb-fuckery of any good D&D game

5) Stories that read like fanfic (complimentary)

#mswl

1) African and/or Caribbean inspired, anti-colonial fantasy (from someone of that background or ancestry)

2) A REALLY GOOD adventure - think Indiana Jones, Clive Cussler, Pirates of the Caribbean

Bonus points for swashbuckling and impossible escapes, but consistent rules/magic

#mswl

MIDDLE GRADE #MG
Voice-driven middle grade with a captivating setting and quirky, lovable characters. In this space, I am open to horror, fantasy, magical realism, mystery, sci fi, historical, paranormal, adventure, contemporary, and nonfiction.

CHAPTER BOOKS #CB
Character-driven stories with a strong, commercial hook and series potential. I am looking for fantasy, magical realism, mystery, contemporary, nonfiction, light horror, paranormal, and adventure tales here.

While I am not open to queries just yet, I have a #MSWL profile you can check out for a preview on what I'll be looking for in the future! 😉

Jessica is open to queries! 🎉 #mswl jsinsheim.bsky.social

For #MG think of me for spies! heists! and high stakes adventure. I am looking for standout voice, laugh out loud moments, and irresistible characters. I'd love MG fantasy in my inbox, but it needs to feel fresh and new. And I am interested in younger MG with illustrative potential.

Newly opening to: Graphic Novels!

I'm looking for tightly plotted adventures with a strong hook and an elevated art style. I'm interested in similar themes as in prose: children or teenagers tackling unjust systems, an intense first emotional experience connected to a larger social topic.

Would love to get a manuscript in my inbox reminiscent of Frieren, with that perfect mix of love, loss, and a fantasy adventure quest. #mswl
