First one is obvious (I hope): send me lefty stuff, please. Leftist critiques of culture, history, contemporary politics, policy, people, big ideas, grassroots movements, and the like. I would really love to see sharp, refreshing, truly progressive thinking and writing #MSWL

Give me badass females and POC in your historical! Big plus if it's LGBTQ+ #MSWL just don't give me Shakespeare, Henry VIII, or Greek gods - a little worn out on WWII, as well, unless it has a totally new POV

I want Urban Fantasy, Fantasy, Historical - all inspired or utilizing non American/European mythology. Give me monsters and legends and traditions from worlds we don't often see in the mainstream. #MSWL

Oh! Here's my Pinterest #MSWL. All the visual feels: pinterest.com/kaitlynjohnson…

I'm also looking for more nonfiction--particularly smart, accessible books about feminism, science, history, or travel; and prescriptive or art/gift books with a geeky subject. Author platform preferred! #mswl

I would love to see dystopia or fantasy/sci fi with abandoned theme parks. Think Doctor Who "Nightmare in Silver" episode or Chernobyl playground feels. Points for setting as haven to homeless kids #MSWL

I also want to add that I'm open to all kinds of historical fic--thrillers, fantasy, mysteries, women's fic, YA, etc, etc. I JUST LOVE BEING IN A DIFFERENT TIME PERIOD. #mswl

I would love to see more crime fiction from writers of color and LGBT writers in the world and in my inbox. If the main characters are also POC/LGBT, even better. #MSWL

#MSWL #MG please. No high fantasy, horror, sci fi but otherwise I will be open to (end of Sept), especially to #diverse voices, strong hooks, compelling plot, amazing characters. Even better if humor laced throughout drama or drama laced throughout humor.

YA: I want stories with mother/daughter relationships a la Lady Bird. Also just rewatched Clueless and I want more zany rom-coms with a clever, confident protags. Ten million points if MC is Latina. #MSWL

#MSWL romance

For historical fic: fave time periods are 19th century and 20th century (especially 1900s-1960s). Bonus points for female protags defying the then order. Double bonus points if MCs are 1st/2nd gen Americans. #MSWL

It's #MSWL day! I would love to find a great graphic novel that fits my list. I get very few GN queries. Especially if an artist is already attached--please send it my way!

Time to share my #MSWL! For SFF: Black Mirror-esque thrillers that imagine the dark and twisted places tech could take us. My fave eps were "Nosedive" and "Men Against Fire." Also want fantasies built on myths and legends, especially from diverse cultures.

Also here's all my #MSWL from years past. I STILL WANT THEM ALL twitter.com/search?l=&q=%2…

#MSWL Also craving smart escapist reads, fairy-tale retellings, books about motherhood (not prescriptive though) and anything that tackles the most urgent issues in our society and/or pushes the envelop.

5. #MSWL and check out my colleagues @eddieschneider @_LisaRodgers @susannprogress @bradymcagent too -- especially YA (I Am Still Alive) & MG (Dactyl Hill Squad)

We all have our wishes -- but we'd love to make your wish come true.

4. #MSWL not like I'll ever stop looking for great sf and fantasy, but today's the day I want to push for the other stuff.

3. #MSWL mysteries! thrillers! 1st book I sold was a mystery. Before Sookie Stackhouse I was selling mysteries for @realcharlaine & in an alternate universe the early mysteries I sold would have taken off more than the early sf/f I sold & I'd be a hotshot mystery agent
