Speaking of romance, we need more romance that doesn't glorify persistence. Give me heroes who take no for an answer. Give me active affirmative consent. My favorite tropes are enemies-to-lovers and what I like to think of as "whoops I'm in love with my BFF." #MSWL

I badly want your contemporary adult romance with heroes and/or heroines who are from marginalized communities. I know traditional romance publishing has not always been welcoming, and I respect authors who prefer to self-publish, but if you want to try, I want to try. #MSWL

Do you have a novel or reported nonfiction on the things I can't stop thinking about, like Morgellons, the Tamam Shud case, the Voynich manuscript, Hinterkaifeck, and the Sodder children? Gimme. ESPECIALLY if it's a novel inspired by Jestyn. Please. #MSWL

Very actively looking for fiction by #actuallyautistic authors with autistic protagonists, especially in middle grade, especially contemporary fiction. #MSWL

My #MSWL includes, among other things: MG/YA fiction & adult fic/NF by authors who are: trans and/or non-binary or otherwise not cis, disabled and/or #actuallyautistic, and/or Indigenous. Including any intersections thereof, & whether or not the work focuses on identity.

Yeah, #mswl.

*taps inbox* *shakes inbox* Nope. Still not many cozy mysteries in there. Send 'em over, please! #MSWL Paste query and 1st five pages in the body of email and send to: querylynnette (at) theseymouragency (dot) com. #DyingToRead #LoveCozies

I would love to see more MG submissions in my inbox. Realistic, historical, magical, scientific, adventurous--whatever you've got, I want to see it! #mswl

A #MSWL from me: I would really LOVE to receive some really smart, funny Contemporary YA submissions. Books that make you laugh AND think. Along the lines of, i.e.: "I BELIEVE IN A THING CALLED LOVE," or "WHEN DIMPLE MET RISHI," or "THE LAKE EFFECT."

"Non-fic like Jim Collins GOOD TO GREAT, Susan Cain's QUIET & Charles Duhigg's THE POWER OF HABIT" @CurtisPSLA #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

SOMEONE PLEASE USE THIS TO WRITE ME NOVELS #mswl

I want to read this #MSWL

I'd love a lyrical picture book about Thailand's Floating Lantern Festival. #MSWL

And #MSWL: #ownvoices middle grade stories about non-neurotypical life in middle school, because I can only imagine what navigating those halls is like for my oldest child, and wish his peers had more empathy than judgment when witnessing his distress.

In search of an #OwnVoices author to write a #MiddleGrade #Fantasy about the Heikegani and The Tale of the Heike. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heikegani #MSWL #ManuscriptWishList #MGLit #KidLit #SFF #SCBWI #WeNeedDiverseBooks

#MSWL I really want a PB nonfiction about ground breaking females in ballet, figure skating, or really any sports.

"Plot-driven story of marriage, complicated family drama, or mother/daughter relationships i.e. THIS IS HOW IT ALWAYS IS, EVERYTHING I NEVER TOLD YOU, MATING FOR LIFE, THE NEST, SHE REGRETS NOTHING, THE PEOPLE WE HATE AT THE WEDDING" @carlywatters #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Last year’s #MSWL. It’s still the same (especially this one). Follow the thread.

Picked up @markusmotum's CURIOSITY: THE STORY OF A MARS ROVER at the library yesterday and it's just *gorgeous*. Exactly what I'm looking for re: picture books dealing with space! #mswl #picturebooks
