what if I said this was a #mswl

Here's everything you need to know about our Valentine's Pitch Event! #onwriting #amwriting #amquerying #romance #romancewriters #mswl #litagent #AuthorsOfTwitter darleyandersonblog.com/2023/01/18/lov… via @DA_Agency

So a WF that has this type of single status energy and best friend support is definitely on my #MSWL now, because these dating apps drag me for filth on a very regular basis, and my girls are always there to laugh at the foolery.

I would love to find a compelling story with a transfemme/trans woman protagonist.
Any genre. MG, YA, Adult
(although #YA is forever my great love)

If you are a trans woman writer and think I could be a good fit, please #query me. #MSWL

Looking for a Día de los Muertos adult project ... fantasy maybe? Anyone have one? #MSWL

I expect to be open to queries through the spring. Please bear with me as I learn the kinks of QM. As always, I do not accept pitches via social media and, going forward, I will not accept email queries except as noted on kt’s website.

Looking forward to reading your work! (7/7)

- Feel good stories that center female friendship + group dynamics a la Babysitters Club or teen-versions of League of Their Own + Call the Midwife
- Witches
(6/7 #MSWL)

- YA historical/ +fantasy/ +romance that doesn’t take itself too seriously a la My Lady Jane, Gentleman’s Guide, Bridgerton, The Great
- Native and rural voices, especially from the Pacific Northwest or Inland Northwest
(5/7 #MSWL)

Here’s some specific #MSWL items:
- Contemporary MG in the vein of Kelly Yang, Corey Ann Haydu, Tae Keller
- Tweens + teens making messy decisions like in Babysitters Club + Never Have I Ever
- Contemporary MG + YA graphic novels (my list is already full of speculative)
(4/7)

The categories I’m looking for, in order of priority, are:
- YA and MG graphic novels from author-illustrators (one person)
- MG and YA prose novels
- Nonfiction for kids and teens
- Chapter books and picture books from author-illustrators (one person)
(3/7 #MSWL)

My general #MSWL remains the same and you can find that (and kt literary’s querying guidelines) here: ktliterary.com/submissions And with more detail here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/laur…. (2/7)

My more professional actual agents page is here if anyone is interested. New year, same old me because I like what I like #mswl: andrewnurnberg.com/team-member/si…

For the afternoon crowd, I refreshed my #mswl and threaded a couple of highlights below. Not huge changes, but I did add a genre and tweaked what I was looking for in another.

Across categories: A perennial ask, but #Latinx stories from #Latinx creators! Especially from authors of Puerto Rican, Dominican, or Cuban descent. #mswl

Adult Romance: High concept stories that are just shy of bonkers are always my jam. If you have to caveat an idea with “wait, but hear me out” it’s likely that I will be interested in seeing more. #mswl

YA/MG: Kids with chronic conditions, especially invisible ones, grappling with new diagnoses or figuring out how to navigate old ones in the face of growing up and gaining more responsibility for self-care is a space that has room for growth in this category. #mswl
