“Queer rom coms that represent not just the L and the G in LGBTQQIP2SAA.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Hi #amquerying #amwriting folks!

Just a friendly reminder that I am desperately seeking some more contemporary stories in the adult, YA & MG space.

My detailed #MSWL can be found here: bit.ly/3iZE47U 🖤

I'd especially love a #YA #thriller or #MG #mystery set in #ElYunque rainforest in #PuertoRico #mswl

Excited to find more #MG and #YA stories that represent authentic #Latinx #customs, #traditions, #celebrations, #folklore #mswl

I'd love to see more #MG and #YA stories based on #PuertoRican #folklore #mswl

I'm thrilled to participate in #LatinxPitch on 9/15! I'm especially looking for #GN and #YA novels! I'll add more #mswl themes to this thread! #amquerying #kidlit #BIPOC #Latinx

“Nonfiction works that explore the intersection of misogyny and capitalism.” @ceciliaclyra #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

#mswl Fiction, nonfiction--surprise me!

Would like to see some suspenseful thrillers in my inbox — bonus points if it has a feminist angle #MSWL

I loved this article and, especially as a mom to a 2-year-old boy, would love to see more MG books along these lines #MSWL: nytimes.com/2021/08/06/opi…

So gorgeous!! And also yes, I WOULD like a story about a BIPOC cowgirl thank u for asking #MSWL

Time for an updated #MSWL post! 🌟

First and foremost, I'm looking for BIPOC voices, queer voices, disabled voices, and generally, voices from historically excluded backgrounds.

MG/YA #MSWL cont:
Nos:
🚫 Big cities that are not diverse
🚫 Burying the gays
🚫 Spec based on colonialism or imperialism
🚫 not super partial to contemporary sports settings but twists can help (thrillers, etc.)

MG/YA #MSWL cont:
☑️ Queer ballet (if you caught #QueertheBallet's ANIMALS & ANGELS last month, I WANT THEIR STORY!!)
☑️ Found families
☑️ Stories where race, gender, sexuality aren't the center. They can just be bad-ass characters!

MG/YA #MSWL
Wants:
☑️ Horror (darker the better but keep it in the age category)
☑️ Rom-coms with a hook
☑️ Spec (especially afro-futurism & magical realism variety)
☑️ Mysteries (gimme the new Westing Game!!!)
☑️ Historicals with a twist (spec, queer, mystery, etc.)
