#MSWL

“I’m looking for all kinds of non-fiction, especially cookbooks, memoirs, essay collections, wellness, and pop-culture history books.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

#MSWL all the vibrant, eloquent, ingenious Amanda Gormans out there, finding their success and happiness and recognition, fictional or not—I want to help put them out there in the world. (Also not opposed to them calling Vogue out for their shit—just saying.)

I know I’ve said it a million times, but #MSWL this MMA romance PLEASE.

Made a few tweaks to my #MSWL and added a truly mortifying list of my fave media to give all the writers out there a bit of foreshadowing as to my soul's aesthetic. Query guidelines linked too! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/shar…

This week, #MeetAPL is excited to feature @firerooster!

Illustrators:
I remain open to witty and expressive artists, especially those with aspirations to write.

Grounded horror or speculative fiction that is creepy and unsettling, but rooted in the real world.

Mystery/Crime: Think Tana French, Attica Locke, Steph Cha and SA Cosby

#MSWL 2/4

“Send me all your ghost stories. I'll take adult fiction (scary or fun), a history of haunted places in America, an illustrated book-- you name it, I'm here for it.” @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

This week has felt like a year, so please send me some fun contemporary! Give me all the MG and YA goofiness that makes me giggle and gives me all the feels. I’m ready to open my inbox and smile🥰 #MSWL

#MSWL Middle Grade Mystery w/a girl protag! Think THE INHERITANCE GAMES but for middle grade (not that exact concept; I’m just giving an example of 🔥-high-concept mystery). Fast plotting. Short chapters. Chapter cliff hangers, pls. Commercial but some emotional nuance too pls!

BRIGADOON meets THE GOOD PLACE #MSWL either YA GN or YA prose.

#MSWL alert! I’m always on the hunt for romance and women’s fiction in general but this illustrates what I’m especially hungry for right now. Thanks to @jmcgowanbks for the graphic! Query me at querymanager.com/KimLionetti

Hey Twitter. Some updates to my #MSWL:

My picture book list is quite full, so I am TEMPORARILY closing to PBs. I remain open to illustrators.

I'm very eager to find: ADULT mystery, crime, domestic suspense and horror/speculative fiction.

Apropos of nothing, I love horror set in space! #MSWL

If you have building-utopia-in-apocalypse stories (although I'd prefer climate apocalypse to zombie), #MSWL.

Anyway, I would love to see a horror book set in space.

#amagenting #mswl

Yes, please. Any of it: hidden staircases, witches trapped at midnight, left shoes tucked away for nefarious (or not) purposes. #mswl

What does an agent mean when they use the #mswl hashtag?
