I'd love to see a story told in the same vein as THE LIGHT WE LOST. Either in POV, the arc of a relationship, NYC being a character... #MSWL

Dana Murphy @manadurphy

A scary, funny YA novel about a banshee. Think Crazy Head meets Teen Wolf (if Lydia was the protagonist). #mswl

Still looking for this little babe. #MSWL

· 12 Sep 2017

Also been watching a lot of GBBO and would love, eg, Martha's story: teen girl juggles competition & school, v. cozy feel. #mswl

Cozy mystery

· 12 Sep 2017

First: still looking for the f/f contemp YA of my dreams; funny, warm, layered, & more "coming of age" than "romance." #mswl

Kelly (Closed to Queries) @bookishchick

I want a YA contemporary about a best friend breakup. Funny and poignant and of course bittersweet and sad. #mswl

Replying to @bookishchick

I want witchy books in YA! Practical Magic, The Craft, The Graces. Something atmospheric and empowering. #mswl

YA
Magic

ellen @ellencormier

Literary historical fiction (YA or MG) about the misogynist persecution of midwives, esp re: accusations of witchcraft. #MSWL

I'd love to see this in Adult, too. #MSWL

Adult

· 12 Sep 2017

Still looking for that perfect serial killer novel. Think: Son of Sam, Zodiac, Bundy, BTK... #MSWL

· 12 Sep 2017

I'm a sucker for gorgeous prose that sucks me in and makes me forget what time it is/where I am/that the stove is on. #MSWL

· 12 Sep 2017

A M A Z O N S (and/or ancient women warriors in general) #mswl

Women

· 12 Sep 2017

Basically I'm still looking for all my old #MSWL requests: Victorian era; evil children; remote places; noir; unreliable narrators, etc.

· 12 Sep 2017

#MSWL always looking for great voice & a story that'll hook me - genres repped listed on the website. If you think you're a fit, query me.

· 12 Sep 2017

Books where YA characters are forced to make tough, almost impossible decisions. #mswl

YA

· 12 Sep 2017

I'd adore a millennial-driven romcom a la MY NOT SO PERFECT LIFE. Those office/IT/job travel situations are full of excellent stories. #mswl

Romantic Comedy

Natascha Morris on Vacation @SoCalledYALife

Can't acquire right now but I would be interested in a contemporary middle grade that features "Southern" abuse. #mswl

I am fascinated by the emotional manipulation Southern women use on their daughters, and the damage it does on the relationship. #MSWL

· 12 Sep 2017

I want historical fiction that highlights women who changed the world in big & small ways, whose contributions have been forgotten. #MSWL

· 12 Sep 2017

Romeo and Juliet inspired LGBT contemporary #YA romance. #MSWL

· 12 Sep 2017

I'd love to see something like this article. It's dark, it's messed up, but I'd be riveted. #MSWL mobile.nytimes.com/2012/05/13/mag…

Saba Sulaiman @agentsaba

Stories that inspire spirited discussion and deep self-reflection; stories that make me feel powerful, unexpected emotions. #MSWL

Replying to @agentsaba

Stories with very flawed but somehow personable characters making poor decisions. Stories with bold plotting and big character arcs. #MSWL

· 12 Sep 2017

I'd be interested in repping more stories informed by trans-generational trauma and the intersection of power and dignity #MSWL

· 12 Sep 2017

I love luscious, lyrical writing in YA--think Stiefvater, Black, and more. #MSWL
