AGREE, @marjorieingall! Query me if yr book reflects the rich diversity w/in Judaism, if you're writing about a "Black Orthodox Jewish kid who solves mysteries," or a "Jewish girl on a desert planet who rescues a fugitive droid and saves the galaxy"! #MSWL nyti.ms/3r0URd0

LAST BUT NOT LEAST: A crime novel that’s set in a community or about a group of people who see crime differently than privileged white folks usually do. Would like something by an author who has unique insight, or a perspective......we don’t usually see in publishing. Think: S.A. Cosby, the Netflix series Making a Murderer.

8: I really, really want a western with a horse-girl-esque twist. Westerns are having a moment, I grew up riding and surrounded by equestrian culture, and I would love to see something fresh and progressive......by a rural author with something interesting and new to say. Think: Heresy, by Melissa Lenhardt; Outlawed, by Anna North.

7: A cultural commentary on cancel culture, by an author with an established platform and some expertise in online life, technology, anthropology, research, something. Think: The You’re Wrong About podcast episode on the subject.

6: Wholesome but quirky. This has been in my wheelhouse a LONG time, and I want more of it. You know slice of life anime? You know @_wholesomegames? That. In book form, or graphic novel. Adult only, please. Bonus for cottagecore aesthetics.

5: Something SO WEIRD that I could never predict it. Speculative elements, accessible worldbuilding, whatever. But I want you to send me things in my inbox that make me go, what the ACTUAL fuck is this. I want the writing to be SO GOOD and the themes so universally appealing......that I can’t walk away from it. Think: SATELLITE LOVE, by Genki Ferguson; LAKEWOOD, by Megan Giddings; ESCAPING EXODUS, by Nicky Drayden; Cassandra Khaw.

4: High-concept, feminist suspense and/or thriller, with lots of glamour and intrigue. Think unique settings, lavish parties, beautiful wardrobes, gossip, and murder. Fairly formulaic, but fresh and twisty......No law enforcement themes. Think: THE BALLERINAS, by Rachel Kapelke-Dale; MALIBU RISING, by Taylor Jenkins Reid.
