I am looking for thrillers and crime fiction of all types; book club fiction that moves me and makes me think; great historical fiction (including novels featuring fantasy/mythology). In non-fiction, books which work on an emotional level and let me in on the conversation. #mswl

Hello, 2021, and hello to writers seeking representation this year. Happy New Year! Here's what I'm looking for...a new year, a new #mswl thread...

Hello, everyone: I did a #mswl tweet at the start of this year, and it's all still true. I'm particularly excited to find YA thrillers and mysteries, and middle grade anything: series, contemporary, fantasy, etc.

I feel it warrants mentioning, since my partner and I are doing a West Wing re-watch and accompanying @WestWingWeekly listen, that I am a MASSIVE fan of Aaron Sorkin’s work. Do you write like him? If you do, I want to read it, regardless of what your project is. #MSWL

In an author call today I found myself saying “girls need strong representations of female villains, too.” Smart, cunning, complex girl (or non-binary) villains, anyone? #mswl (when I’m open again next month).

This article hit close, because Titanic is my favorite movie, too, and I rarely say that out loud. But I'll say it now: #amquerying folks, if you've got a book that's also 'a sweeping history lesson and a devastating romance,' please do send my way! #mswl

I'd love to read a historical fic about the Indian soldiers who fought for the Brits in WWII (at a time when the struggle for freedom from UK rule was at its height). When I say I want to see a NEW side of WWII/histfic, this is what I mean (& written by an Indian author!) #MSWL
