Agents! I am hungry for horror! #mswl If you have anything horror-leaning, please do get in touch!

Agents, I want a dinosaur horror book. Like give me Jurassic Park but REALLY SCARY #mswl

Other specifics: friendship stories (or friendship breakup stories) and stories that bridge the gap between MG and YA. #mswl

I look forward to reading your submissions!

My top MG genres right now are contemporary, horror, historical fiction, and fantasy. Across all genres, I'm eager to see submissions by authors from underrepresented communities. #mswl

I'd love to see standalone stories that address difficult and/or weighty topics in age-appropriate, compassionate, and thoughtful ways, and that are ultimately hopeful, as well as stories that increase the diversity of experiences reflected in MG literature. #mswl

@JollyFishPress is now OPEN to submissions for the months of February/March. (We'll reopen later in the year as well.) Submission guidelines are here: shop.northstareditions.com/jolly-fish-press-submission-guidelines/

My full #mswl is here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/meg-gaertner/

But here are some items I'd like to highlight:

#kidlit #pb #authors - today's the last day of Open Submissions for @CardinalRulePrs .

No specific #MSWL but I'd really love a story that meets all the guidelines below and is told with energy and humor.

Always voice driven, often funny, sometimes heartbreaking... Characters are key for me! I can fix a plot. 🤓 I am not great with genre fiction, though there are exceptions if the writing is irresistible to me.

I'm getting a lot of submissions in two categories lately, so maybe it's worth saying on here: I'm not looking to acquire more novels in verse at this moment, and my picture book list is quite limited. Right now, my #mswl is skewed toward mg and YA.

as we wrap up Jan 2024 (kinda) I would just like to say: agents, please send more POC YA fantasy and YA romance my way pls and thnx #mswishlist #mswl

Agents: If you have a comp to @blacktapespod I want it! #MSWL

Agents: If you have anything like Podcase @Archive81 Season 3, we NEED to talk! #MSWL

Hi, agents!

New year, new #mswl :

manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/nicole-luongo/

For those I haven’t yet connected with, my name is Nicole and I’m acquiring for @parkrowbooks . Please feel free to reach out—I’d love to meet you!

Let’s find our book match in 2024. 🎉📚

#MSWL for sapphic romantasy that has the energy of that one woman in WWE, you know who I mean

Edinburgh Seven x Historical Fantasy x Dark Academia #mswl

With all this snow, I would love to find a locked-room thriller in the middle of a blizzard, or a mountaineering thriller where the characters get trapped on a mountain #mswl

Agents: Send me a story that reads the way a @Hozier song feels! #MSWL #Swoon

Agents: One of my favorite movies is Under the Tuscan Sun. If you have something that has similar vibes (does not have to be Italy) send it my way! #MSWL

Agents: I crave a 90's-esque sweep-me-off-my-feet romantic masterpiece. Think The Holiday, You've Got Mail, Sleepless In Seattle. Give me female gazey protagonists and at least one good reason to cry, then laugh, then cry again! #MSWL

I updated my #MSWL page for the first time in... a decade? And I'm looking forward to reading some great submissions in 2024.

Agents, among other things, I'd love to find a feel-good underdog sports story to weep over and/or edit. Hit me up! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/katherine-harrison/
