In historical fiction, I’d prefer stories not set in Western Europe or the USA. Hidden histories and female-led retellings are also up my alley.

Some tweet-sized updates: For book club fiction, I love voice-driven writing, a social commentary that resonates with the current culture, or a critique on the ideals of femininity.

Happy updated #MSWL day! As always, you can find my interests here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/kend…

I love a Murder Book that somehow also feels like a warm hug #MSWL

I love beautiful historical fiction that reminds us that trans people have always been here #mswl

I love litfic that tricks Very Serious Contemporary Readers into reading about magic #mswl

I love YA that in its surface is about monsters or magic but is actually about family or community or growing up #mswl

#PBPitch & #MSWL on the same day makes me wish I could nestle here on Twitter and do nothing else!

I’m updating my MSWL page for when I reopen, but my biggest change is that I’m dropping adult fiction.

Brief list (will expound later)
💫Adult NF - CBA & ABA
💫PB, MG, YA - ABA

Next one for #queryingauthor !
#mswl

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. 👀
