I want to see more stories where the characters embody that “I have decided to become worse” quote. real “I’ll give you something to cry about” energy

when I say I'm looking for thoughtful explorations of life through the lens of sobriety, this is what I'm talking about. amazing article @danielleiat ! #MSWL

I’ve opened to picture books. I’ve missed my PB community. (Go easy on me.)

I’ll be prioritizing authors and/or illustrators from marginalized communities, books with side-splitting humor, and fascinating nonfiction (that’s not a bio).

New year, new wishlist!

The wonderful @hayleyemmasteed has updated her #MSWL so #amwriting community, check it out 👀

My latest wishlist for exciting new submissions! Though often the best books are the ones that I never asked for and surprise me... Either way, send me your books! 👇 #MSWL bit.ly/3A9VUw9

I’d like more body horror in my inbox. #mswl

I'm not the right agent for stories that center on pregnancy, pregnancy/infant loss, or anything of the sort. If it's a small part, pls use a content warning.

Would also love a CW for animal death or animal cruelty. Not a no-no, but need a heads up! #MSWL #amquerying

I'm *not* huge on historical (and even '90s is historical now) or high #fantasy, portals, or chosen ones. But if you can really surprise me, I will give it a shot. #MSWL #amquerying

Love, love #YA girl friendships with bite -- and I don't mean vampires (though I could!). Think: Undead Girl Gang or Marlena for young adults. #MSWL #amquerying

ALWAYS want #YA whodunnits/mysteries that are puzzle-y or riddle-strewn and have touches of humor and lively characters in the spirit of Agatha Christie, like #TrulyDevious or the Inheritance Games series. #MSWL #amquerying

I'm looking for #YA survival stories in the vein of #Yellowjackets (the teen timeline), #TheWilds or even something like Wilder Girls. Questions! Mysteries! A hint at mystical or fantastical without going full fantasy. #MSWL #amquerying

I am open to #MG but fair warning, I am quite picky in this category. Voice for MG is very difficult (congrats to those who are great at it! *ahem* @vickithewriter) and it's almost always the reason I pass. #MSWL #amquerying

And to help #amquerying writers, here's some of my #mswl in a thread.

ALWAYS looking to partner with and support writers of color, writers who live with disabilities (me too!), neurodiverse writers, and otherwise underserved and underrepresented authors in #YA and #MG.

Hello #amquerying and #amwriting writers! I am open to queries again starting right now! I only accept #YA and #MG fiction at this time. You can submit to me here with your query letter and first 10 pages: QueryManager.com/caitlinwhite

If you need any help, please DM me!
A thread!

I would love to see more mystery novel submissions in the vein of @OnlyMurdersHulu. I adore the old-fashioned glamour of the apartment block setting (yet modern tone), the witty, off-beat characters & podcast that brings the 3 sleuths together. Also v. keen on @KnivesOut.

“YA non-fiction: Memoir, essay collections, you name it. Queer There & Everywhere is probably my favorite YA non-fic title in recent memory, and a great example of what I’d like to see.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

If you can comp your book to Yellowjackets, please send it to me! #MSWL

An interviewer asked me if a writer were to write something directly for me, what would it be. The first thing that came to mind was a MG or YA queer cozy paranormal mystery. #mswl
