Happy #MSWL Day! I'm especially seeking contemporary upmarket fiction & psychological suspense. Click pics below for specifics that will grab my attention! Open to subs the 1st-5th of each month. See website link in bio for sub info.

I'm acquiring middle grade and young adult fiction for Peachtree and Peachtree Teen! Especially looking for horror, mystery/thrillers, grounded speculative fiction, contemporary, and romance. Authors and agents, check out my #mswl 📖

In YA, I'd love to see comtemporary paranormal romances and mysteries from fresh, underrepresented perspectives à la CEMETERY BOYS, IF I HAVE TO BE HAUNTED, and THESE DEADLY PROPHECIES. Please give me vampires, witches, ghosts, zombies, etc. especially from a unique cultural lens! #MSWL

Check out my #MSWL here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/si..., and submission guidelines here: inkwellmanagement.com/contact/! no ai stuff pls.

I would love more contemporary stories with a speculative or magical twist. So grounded real world with something that isn't worldly, if you will. That can be anything from cursed objects, to ghosts, to a time slip... #MSWL

#MSWL Smart, contemporary, voicey bookclub women's fiction; Sephardic or Mizrachi historical women's fiction, write to querymarilyn@transatlanticagency.com; no romantasy, no fantasy, no sci fi. Thanks! My clients have won major American and Canadian awards, and I'm very active internationally.

✨I'M OPEN TO GRAPHIC NOVELS✨
Here is a visual #mswl for what I'd love to see in my inbox 👀

#mswl this is very specific but I'd like to see a contemporary YA novel about a formerly high-achieving teen athlete who has to redefine their sense of self after a physically disabling injury or illness changes their relationship with the sport

#mswl heists please! YA or adult, contemporary or fantasy settings. Bonus if the heist is intended to right a legal injustice in the vein of the show Leverage or the book Portrait of a Thief. Extra bonus if there's a lesbian protagonist.

Hello 2026! As we get closer to the new year—and my query inbox reopening—it’s time for me to update what I’m looking for. I saw a lot of fabulous projects in 2025 (but more on that later), and I’m excited about what I might find in 2026. #mswl

i’m looking for agented authors of color interested in writing new adult contemporary romance for our new adult imprint, requited. any agents i can connect with on this? #mswl

A bit specific... #mswl I'm looking for commercial fiction that treats feminine lineage + forgotten power as serious, political, alive in the modern world. Not goddess-core... something with the gravity of Mists of Avalon, but contemporary and propulsive. #litagent

MSWL (3/?)
Fantasy - pretty open
Not a fit for Fae/Faeries, werewolves, elves

Contemporary - slice of life, “one day” stories, LGBTQ+, impactful stories; not necessarily looking for warm/fluffy contemporary right now; not a fit for SA, Drug Abuse, or child/animal abuse
