It turns out #MSWL ACTUALLY means Manuscript Wish List. Will tweet new wishes later but I also have a bunch here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/laur…

Happy #MSWL-day. I want smart, funny commercial fiction for and about professional women.

MG/YA Contemp that pushes boundaries. Make me uncomfortable. Make me afraid. Make me cry. I want to hurt and hope in equal measure #MSWL

Female driven YA Sci-Fi with well developed characters and original worldbuilding. *Not* dystopian in disguise, please. #MSWL

Voicey YA/MG w diverse male MC, such as FIVE, SIX, SEVEN, NATE!; ALL AMERICAN BOYS; THE ABSOLUTELY TRUE DIARY OF A PART-TIME INDIAN #MSWL

Yes. Would love something like this! #MSWL twitter.com/aejerman/statu…

YA with the kind of lush worldbuilding found in THE RAVEN BOYS or SCORPIO RACES. Contemporary Fantasy or Magical Realism! #MSWL

I love twisty psychological thrillers like BEHIND CLOSED DOORS & THE COUPLE NEXT DOOR. #MSWL

Life is messy! People are complex! So I think books should be too. I want to be spurred to reflect on my life choices & my future #MSWL

Past/present narrative structure (i.e. Losing The Light, Last Letter From Your Lover, American Wife, Beautiful Ruins) #mswl

Sweeping multi POV plots that show all sides of a big story (i.e. Elin Hilderbrand, Jodi Picoult, Emma Straub, Liane Moriarty) #mswl

Plot driven study of marriage (i.e. Fates and Furies, The Vacationers, Mating For Life, Everything I Never Told You, After I Do) #mswl

Not afraid of unlikable or "damaged" female characters. To me they’re more real (Girls on Fire, Luckiest Girl Alive, Dark Places etc.) #mswl

Domestic suspense/psychological thrillers more than woman’s journey (i.e. The Good Girl, Pretty Baby, The Widow, Husband's Secret) #mswl

Coming-of-age novels rooted in big plots & high stakes (i.e. Age of Miracles, Yonahlosee Riding Camp For Girls, The Fever, After Her) #mswl

Historical novel where the rich plot & important setting work together (i.e. Nightingale, Arcadia, Girl You Left Behind, Astonish Me) #MSWL

Fraught, complex, non-nuclear family drama. Also 6+ members. (The Nest, This Is Where I Leave You, Seating Arrangements, The Arrivals) #mswl

High stakes stories about moral dilemmas within dark family secrets (i.e. The Light Between Oceans, Nightingale, The Nest, Honor) #mswl

"A legitimately scary YA manuscript." @msmariavicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation/

LOVE novels about complicated female friendships of all ages (i.e. Girls on Fire, The After Party, Friendship, Losing The Light) #mswl
