I'd really love for some quirky, geeky nonfiction in the vein of "Of Dice and Men" or "The Lady from the Black Lagoon" but about video games, manga (CLAMP anyone?), or that explores pop culture through the lense of an influencial creator or medium or unique perspective. #MSWL

Here's my current #MSWL: naomikrueger.com/about/mswl/

#MSWL for updates or new creative takes on classic literary novels that *aren't* Jane Austen books. Where my Bronte lovers at?

Seems to be code for “straight” imo, or at the very least “isn’t it great how they’re gay but it’s not, like, a big deal!” plus no sex/cursing/drugs/drinking. SO, new #mswl: write me a “clean teen” book with a SUPER QUEER mc that I can rub in their faces.

Reconciliation romances? Oh yes!!! Gimme 🤗😍🤗

Also relinking to my full #MSWL page as I'm also looking for the right PB and YA projects. manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/mega…

MG stories that help destigmatize mental illness. #mswl

Imaginative MG animal fantasy. Avi's POPPY series is one of my evergreen favorites. #mswl

MG stories where the atmosphere/setting act as a key secondary character. THE NIGHT GARDENER and the Serafina series do this masterfully. #mswl

Spooky MG mystery in the vein of JUST SOUTH OF HOME, THE BONE GARDEN and TUNNEL OF BONES. #mswl

Coming-of-age MG stories that tug at your heartstrings but still end on a hopeful note. Think THE ETHAN I WAS BEFORE, THE BRIDGE HOME, and COUNTING BY 7s. #mswl

Lush MG fantasy with compelling, relatable characters and unique worlds. Two of my favorite recent reads are THE STORM RUNNER and GAME OF STARS. #mswl

I'm actively looking to build my middle grade list, so agents here's a quick Monday MG #MSWL thread of some of the kinds of projects I'd love to see in my inbox right now.

Rewatching Witches of East End. I love the Killian/Freya/Dash love triangle, the curse on Ingrid and Freya, and the family dynamics between the Beauchamp women.

As always, I want contemporary witches in my inbox, and I wouldn't complain if they had any of these plotlines. #MSWL

if you gave me a Dark and Edgy YA contemporary about a group of friends solving mysteries with their dog and their van i’m not not going to enjoy it #mswl

#mswl Black metropolitan aesthetics from the past, present, & future.

i've reached the point where i'm itching for a FUN #MG or #YA submission. i'm down for a spiral into something fascinating but it has to be within a plot with adventure, hijinx, but most importantly, i want to laugh and enjoy the ride. #MSWL
