Editors' MSWL | MsWishList

· 6 Jun 2018

I'm actively seeking inspirational romantic suspense of 55k words. Agents welcome but not required. To get an idea for tone, read recent @LoveInspiredBks.
Inspirational = wholesome w/ characters of faith
Inspirational does not = preachy
Suspense = edge of your seat danger

Hello I would really love to edit some Lovecraftian YA that empowers a marginalized protagonist (so basically Lovecraft Country for Youths) please and thank you #MSWL

Silvia Moreno-Garcia @silviamg

Reminder that not all work by POC must be weighty, dramatic books. White authors got to write thousands of fluffy books and cash the checks. We shouldn't be appreciated only when it gets dark and horrible.

THIS!!!!

I SAY THIS TO EVERY PERSON WHO ASKS ME WHAT I'M LOOKING TO ACQUIRE.

SEND ME AN THE LIGHT AND FLUFFY POC BOOKS, ESPECIALLY FRIENDSHIP BOOKS, SIBLING BOOKS, AND BOOKS WHERE ALL THE HIJINKS HAPPEN. #MSWL twitter.com/silviamg/statu…

Y'all, I'm really in the mood for some queer scifi romance, especially if it's somewhat light in tone. (Less BSG, more Firefly.) Spaceships, other worlds, fun times, please. #MSWL

Arkady Babchenko is actually alive, the whole death thing was actually a special operation to catch those plotting to kill him, he says at a press conference. Wow. Only in Ukraine zona.media/news/2018/05/3… pic.twitter.com/W1R98JQqSA

Han was almost black and Luke was initially written as a woman. I’m so curious as to what Star Wars looked like before it became what it is. twitter.com/filmfatale_nyc…

I'm eager to acquire historical mysteries with a whodunit focus, clever sleuths, and light romantic elements that are slowly teased out over the course of the series. #MSWL #mystery

I’d love to acquire a romance where the protags are close (NOT romantic close) with their siblings. Think Zeus, Ares and Ambrosia in Pippa Grant’s hockey series. #mswl

Rebecca Mix @rebeccarmix

someone write me a post-apocalyptic book where the most efficient person in the group is a writer that wrote a shitload of apocalypse AU fanfic and accidentally taught themselves how to survive because they spent so much time researching

Omg I love this idea. #MSWL

I don’t naturally gravitate to teen, but could someone PLEASE send me a #YA of EVERYTHING SUCKS? That scene when she tore down JTT to put up Tori and Fiona posters gave me life. #mswl
