Happy #MSWL Day! I’d love to see…

Generally fic that gets a little weird and makes me feel things (see Lisa Taddeo’s ANIMAL, Jessamine Chan’s THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD MOTHERS)

A YA crossover witchy or obsessive girlhood friendship

An unusual & chaotic contemp workplace romance

Are you winky-nodding to the audience with a story that feels like the most fun D&D session you've ever played? Cool. Or does your SF break hearts with how unflinchingly it depicts the human condition? I'll take a look. #MSWL

I am a HUGE sucker for books that cross genres or that pull in familiar tropes from other genres. Want to put a heist inside a romance? Here for it. #MSWL

In all things, I am looking for compassionate writing, community-focused politics, strong BIPOC and LGBTQ+ representation, and to have lots of feelings and/or fun while reading

I'm closed to queries for the next couple months for dedicated reading time, but in honor of #MSWL Day I redid my MSWL! I am looking for all types of romance, SFF (plus horror), mysteries, thrillers, YA, and some small subsets of literary and commercial fiction!

In honor of #MSWL day, I'm giving this thread a boost! I open to queries the first week of each month so if you're ready to query and my wish list resonates with you, I look forward to reading in March!

Oh wait-- one more bizarrely specific #MSWL from me:

I'd love to read a historical or Regency farce set on social media. The scandal! The games of gossip telephone! The social climbing! I'm talking Georgette Heyer with groupchats and softblocks.

Happy #MSWL Day!

Oh hey it's #MSWL day! Here's a link to my new shiny page. TLDR: I want adult fiction that stretches my imagination, and connects me back to big chewy ideas in the real world. Fresh speculative fiction, philosophical SFFH, ambitious satires.

Happy #MSWL day!

I really want more historical cozy mystery in my life since I have been reading it with a vengeance.

I’m technically on vacation but saw it was #MSWL day and wanted to pop in and say that all my recent MSWL posts are still valid.
Also, I would really love more adult projects and GN projects in my inbox. 👀

I still have a handful of older queries and submissions to read, but I'm officially open to queries again! Looking for crossover speculative fiction, thrillers and horror with speculative elements, and 2SLGBTQIA+ picture books from authors or author/illustrators! #MSWL

Health/Wellness #mswl

I do a lot in this space but a large platform is key PLUS a fresh twist and something that can't be found on a blog. Also: I'm anti-diet.

I'm super proud + excited for books out from my authors this year, and to keep growing with daring + diverse new voices! Check out my

Fiction #mswl

For commercial fiction I liked BEACH READ, ONE TO WATCH. I want the genre to feel subverted in someway. A new hook.

I'm OK with lightly speculative fiction too like THIS TIME TOMORROW or THE TWELVE LIVES OF SAMUEL HAWLEY

It’s #mswl day so re-linking mine - send me all of the things! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/jen-…

Fiction #mswl

I liked THE MOST FUN WE EVER HAD, FLEISHMAN, COMMONWEALTH, CHARLOTTE WALSH LIKES TO WIN, NOTES ON AN EXECUTION, THE GLASS HOTEL, MARRYING THE KETCHUPS, and THIS TIME TOMORROW 2/2

Fiction #mswl

I mostly read to be entertained. I like to read about topics of class, social issues, motherhood/domestic issues, family, ambition, love, family, tragedy, and desire.

I liked LESSONS IN CHEMISTRY, SEVEN DAYS IN JUNE, I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS FOR YOU, THE GUNCLE 1/2

Ahhhh! Just realized it’s #MSWL day! I really love messy characters, twists and turns I never saw coming, diverse characters written by BIPOC & Latinx creators that are both impactful & joyful, and horror in all age categories🤩 manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/amy-…
