Stop by, enter to win a #pb #query and #manuscript critique and try to guess the awesome movie I used as an art note example (hint: it has sports and I have pretty much the whole movie memorized) also hear about some #mswl info and see some of my fave #PBs Thanks @BrianGehrlein!

“Time periods I like to read about: 1920s-present day. I don’t read a lot of historical fiction older than that.” @carlywatters #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

as a transracial adoptee myself, I'm always on the lookout for books by and about adoption #MSWL

If you are a scientist or journalist with expertise in genetic genealogy and crime, hmu! I would love to talk with you about books and multimedia rep! #MSWL #SciTwitter

Plus, if you can bear the thought of partnering with an agent who would have to start contacts from nothing, then #MSWL on sporting bonkbusters. Extra credit if they're a) an unusual sport and b) queer!

I'm reopening to queries on Sunday, 8/1! Here's a link to every #MSWL Tweet I've ever made. mswishlist.com/agent/SWekstein They all still stand! For more details check out my profile: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/sama…

good morning #amquerying folks! I've updated my #MSWL for the first time in many months ✨ here it is:
manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/lari…

RN, I'm craving a YA/Adult romance with a male love interest who OOZES charm and charisma. Nothing else, just those vibes of being irresistible af and leaning into it. Please give me your Henry Montagues, Ian Flannerys, Jesper Faheys, and yes, even Jace Waylands. #MSWL

“I read widely in YA, and enjoy just about every genre in it. I love moving contemporary reads, thrilling sci-fi, and lush fantasy.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

And here's how to get in touch with your query. Thank you for submitting, and good luck to all writers querying! #mswl

Finally, the thing I didn't know I wanted. I have found that several times in this past year and it has been absolute delight. My clients' creativity always outpaces my own imagination, and I love to be surprised by a book. If it's middle grade of YA, try me! #MSWL

Of course I rep a lot of amazing YA fantasy authors and always love YA fantasy, and am especially excited to find fantasy that totally upends my expectations, contemporary fantasy, and contained fantasy (a la a fantasy set on a cruise kind of thing). #MSWL

And middle grade contemporary or realistic -- with or without a twist of magic (a la WHEN YOU REACH ME) -- will always have my heart. #MSWL

Related to last post: books like AMARI AND THE NIGHT BROTHERS, NEVERMOOR, SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL, ARU SHAH. #MSWL

I'm eager for fun middle grade series, humorous or not -- but definitely heartfelt. Sweeping worlds, sweeping adventures, kids wrapped up with gods and monsters and magic. Bonus points for fun animal (or magical-creature) sidekick characters! #MSWL

I also would love some amazing paranormal and, yes, character-driven paranormal romance! #MSWL

Related to both of the previous: character-driven, slow burn horror. Less slasher and more the kind where it feels like we're slowly digging beneath the surface of a seemingly normal town or place and finding the sinister monstrosity beneath. #MSWL

I'm eager to find some thrillers a la ACE OF SPADES, ONE OF US IS LYING, GOOD GIRLS GUIDE TO MURDER, etc. I have clients working on amazing supernatural/fantastical thrillers, too, like @katepearsall and @stageandpage but welcome more. I love a witchy murder mystery! #MSWL

Top of my #MSWL: I am, of course, always one season ahead and already ready for Halloween, so send me your books with spooky, autumn coven and monster vibes, MG or YA. #MSWL
