A thrilling #MSWL from @BookEndsJessica:

"Domestic suspense featuring anything but a cis-het marriage. Like work, friendship, parent/child. Recently read and loved THE GOLDEN COUPLE, MY SWEET GIRL, THE PUSH."

"Thriller (legal, medical, political, etc.), Mystery (cozy, private eye, police procedural, etc.)" @CurtisPSLA #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

TIL the term "bimbo with a blade" and I--

“With memoir, I love a story that feels like I’m reading a collection of essays. @JamesTateHill's BLIND MAN'S BLUFF and @m_scribe's WHAT WE DIDN'T EXPECT, an anthology of essays are two books I worked on that fit in that space.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

CW: racism

Have I started reading subs yet? NO! Is my brain taking tangents based on internet discourse? YES. So here's a thready thread of some thinky thoughts for anyone looking at my #MSWL (#QueryCommentary for organization purposes) re: portrayals of racism (specifically)🧵

Super specifics things I’m looking for that you should definitely send if you have it
- middle grade National Treasure
- a hobbyist who raises bees
- YA Pose
- Black femmes in STEM
- asexual characters
- Black chess players
- terrifying MG horror

My #MSWL is up!! If you think we’d be a good match please query me! If your book doesn’t exactly fit but it would make me laugh out loud or cry and hug it to my chest or lose sleep from nightmares, I want to see it!

“Psychological thrillers with elements of horror (light on the gore).” @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

🚨Impulsively & very last minute: I am closing to queries on MONDAY! I have SO much great stuff in my inbox, I need to actually sit down & dedicate myself to catching up on it all! This will be a short-term close. I’m hoping to be back in a month-ish. Query me if you’re ready!

“If anyone's working on an adult novel that can comp Scream AND something super millennial like The Herd or A Special Place for Women, I want to see it.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

#mswl x1000

Something I'd really love to see in my queries is a story involving polyamory (I'm not looking for a straightforward romance though!). So I'm just going to throw that out there and hope the world throws me a bone—I've been wanting this for years and haven't found it yet. #MSWL

Going to keep tweeting this until I see it!! I really want more YA and Adult Suspense & RomCom submissions from BIPOC writers! #mswl
