I got my masters in creative nonfiction, though I entered the program in fiction and spent two years in each genre. My thesis was a collection of research-heavy personal essays titled “Role Play: Essays on Fitting into the World,” which examined the different roles women play /

Things I want to see more of:

--shorter MG and YA
--boy MCs
--humor (not necessarily as a genre, but as a feature!)

It's been a while, but I've updated my #MSWL! Find the link below and in my bio: bit.ly/3vx9lnR #amquerying

BookFriends! It's #MSWL time!

From @EmilyKaitlinnn:

"My kingdom for a middle grade with magical, high-stakes world building in the vein of THE OWL HOUSE and YA assassin or spy stories like THE GALLAGHER GIRLS series"

Just a heads up that I will be closed to queries after Friday, April 22. I have a lot of quality projects that deserve attention.

But keep an eye on my #MSWL. There will be some changes coming, to reflect better my current projects and what I'm really enjoying right now.

hey #writingcommunity! i've decided to close to queries for a little bit starting on May 2. if you want to query me (see my #mswl below and more at bethphelan.com/submissions), then please do so before May 2! not sure how long i'll stay closed but i'm excited to review your work!

Same! #MSWL

“When it comes to cookbooks, I love unique projects from platformed authors that explore topics that are hard to find in the bookstore, or haven't been explored at all.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

Ohhhh #mswl

Fuck burying your gays, somebody write a queer zombie novel where all of the folks who never got to be together in life rise from the grave to un-live happily ever after, while eating the brains of homophobes and transphobes 🤝

When I reopen to queries this summer I’d like to read a family drama about an eldest daughter of an eldest daughter. #MSWL

New #mswl

also #mswl— more queer hijinks, pls

"Cozy mysteries for younger audiences—I would love to see millennial protagonists, stories with drag queens, boozy brunches, bachelorette parties, all the things!" @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Just a little reminder, books like these are a major priority wishlist item for me. #MSWL

And I may have news about a few soon. ❤️

I have an exam on Monday but I am P R O C R A S T I N A T I N G! So time for an #askagent! My #mswl when I reopen to queries in May is focused on Adult romance and commercial fiction. Like DEVIL’S BREATH by Lang Johnson: geni.us/Devils_Breath

Also #MSWL for books that feel or align with the following tv shows/movies:

-Turning Red (Disney+)
-Only Murders in the Building (Hulu)
-The Afterparty (AppleTV)
-Ted Lasso (AppleTV)
-Good Girls (Netflix)
-Severance (AppleTV)

Putting out an #MSWL call for QBIPOC romance in YA and adult. I want all the steam/heat, yearning, humor, and heart.

pls pls pls send me your f/f romance or rom-coms with diverse MCs in a one-night stand, forced proximity, or in any trope really. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 #romancelandia

last day to send fiction queries for a while! I'm looking for more nonfiction at the moment--you can find what I'm looking for in that area via my #MSWL tweets or my bio (stonesong.com/kim-lindman)

“I want to read geeky and accessible adult commercial fiction. Show me all the cool things the comic con kids grew up to do.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/
