Do Black writers know that everything we create doesn’t have to be about our trauma? I don’t wanna see another get out the hood, police brutality, abusive relationship, segregation, or slavery story. We deal with that shit every day. TF I WANNA WATCH THAT IN MY FREE TIME FORThis is why I keep asking for the stories that feature POC and more specifically black teens and adults in happy situations like falling in love, figuring out who they are, having great friendships because the world is already hard enough for us as it is. #MSWL

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

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

“Clean Teen” books? 🤔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.

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
Editor
Imaginative MG animal fantasy. Avi's POPPY series is one of my evergreen favorites. #mswl
Editor
MG stories where the atmosphere/setting act as a key secondary character. THE NIGHT GARDENER and the Serafina series do this masterfully. #mswl
Editor
Spooky MG mystery in the vein of JUST SOUTH OF HOME, THE BONE GARDEN and TUNNEL OF BONES. #mswl
Editor
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
Editor
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
Editor
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
