If you are redeeming a villain? You will have to fight me off. I love jerks. So much. #MSWL

Happy stories, yes please! Send me your answer to Steve Kluger. (or @stevekluger please write more books) #mswl twitter.com/UweStenderPhD/…

In terms of character types, if I had to pic a favourite it would be, by a mile, the grumpy hero, especially one who's paired with a softer/more extroverted counterpart. This is my enemies-to-lovers catnip. #MSWL

It is #mswl day! Here is a quick thread of things I'm looking for. I'm acquiring romance for Carina Press; you can find more about Carina's guidelines here: carinapress.com/blog/submissio…

A give-for-graduation picture book #mswl

PLOT!! This is a general wish. Send me your beautifully written stories with complex characters. But for goodness sake, let there be plot! I want characters to not only have interior obstacles but exterior ones as well, and to have changed in some way by the last page. #MSWL

An #ownvoices thriller, filled with twists and turns and an ending that gives me whiplash. I think we've seen enough unreliable narrators. I want a narrator who knows what's up but is in great jeopardy. #MSWL

Where are you, today's Nora Ephron? I'm wishing for a narrative non-fiction project (memoir/essays) that tackles what women are facing today, written with wit and humor and profound insight. I want to feel like I'm talking to my smartest best friend. #MSWL

Agents, I also have a much longer doc of #mswl + recent favorite reads -- email me!

I'm super in the mood for more cozy mysteries, especially those with paranormal or historical elements, and/or queer protagonists. #MSWL

A give-for-graduation inspirational picture book #mswl

A high-concept, adorable and swoony YA romance, especially featuring POC characters #mswl

An own-voices undocumented immigration story for any age group #MSWL

YA that takes a nuanced look at abortion and/or consent from a unique lens and/or high concept setup #mswl

A fun MG centered around a place a la Mr. Lemoncello's Library or The 13th Story Treehouse #mswl

A few new #mswl asks... (more here: mswishlist.com/editor/allison…) (can only accept mss through agents or through conferences I have attended)

#MSWL how-to guides for the fragile future, books by and for the next generation of activists, Native voices, manifestos, anti-capitalist business books?
