Yes, please. Always on the hunt for this. Especially early college. I had one of the worst friendship breakups my freshman year with someone who had been my BFF throughout HS. It’s been 18 years (lolololol) and I still think of it. #MSWL

I would love to find a teen girl super spy/action adventure. Something that can be pitched as Kim Possible meets Kingsman. Or in the vein of Kiki Strike (which I haven’t read, admittedly). #MSWL

"I'd love a spooky Middle Grade series." @msmariavicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation/

Completely obsessed with WOMEN'S WORK by @Megankstack --- well written, timely, engrossing. Hoping that an equally brilliant nonfiction proposal from this #WritingCommunity will make its way to my inbox. #MSWL #amreading

Oooh yes #mswl

I say I want a dark YA mystery, but I’ve never been able to pinpoint exactly what I want. Well, now I know. Read Two Can Keep A Secret by @writerkmc. Because that was awesome. And totally the kind of book I’m looking for. #MSWL

Well looks like I don’t have to watch #TheMagicians now. Someone send me a comparable book that’s queer and doesn’t bury the gays #MSWL

Still getting the occasional DM asking if I'm open to queries... and I am! :-D

Here's what I'm looking for:

Most genres of YA.
Genre blending literary fiction.
Accessible sci-fi and fantasy.
Memoir and essay collections.
Cookbooks.
You?

Query me! ericsmithrocks.com/mswl #MSWL

Sneak peak of my Research of Writing in YA/MG Fiction webinar. (When I say I’m looking for manuscripts that’ll teach me stuff, I’m on this level #MSWL)

Happening on Thursday night! Join me: dakotas.scbwi.org/events/using-r…

This is more of Manuscript Do Not Wishlist, but I'd really like to stop seeing such dark MG and YA in my inbox. Could use some light hearted and happy ending books coming my way. #MSWL

"Domestic Suspense like ALL IS NOT FORGOTTEN and THE PERFECT NANNY." @carlywatters #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

They’re popping up in my query inbox so time for this gentle, gentle reminder: no vampires plz. #MSWL #antiMSWL

I have recently fallen into the black hole of Wedding Shaming, and holy hell I want this book so bad. #MSWL

#mswl this kind of shenanigans in a book

#mswl for spring 2019! 🌸

*Contemp Fantasy in MG, YA, Adult

*Character driven SF in MG & Adult

*Female MC thrillers & suspense

*Jewish and LatinX folklore

*YA Contemp with a BIG hook

#MSWL A #YA Comedy where a Being 👽 from another planet tries to assimilate as a human teenager.

Think Third Rock from the Sun meets Strange Planet by @nathanwpyle meets Simon and the Homo Sapien Agenda by @beckyalbertalli

These are the books I love across MG (especially!) and also YA. #MSWL

"Diverse, geeky YA love stories. In love with a rival at a video game tournament?" @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

#mswl (nonfic or romance) after I open to queries again on June 1!

As a huge astronomy buff myself, and in lieu of the first image of a black hole being released, I would love to get some more #YA and #MG submissions with characters who have a passion for fields in STEM. THE LAST TIME WE SAY GOODBYE is a perfect example of this #MSWL #amagenting
