In YA & MG (incl GNs):
* Diverse contemporary stories that are authentic instead of trendy
* Novels that are by & about people whose tales are yet untold
* Soulful, insightful, & well-crafted projects
* Stories that leave me cackling 😆 or sobbing 😭 long after I've read THE END

A suspenseful #MSWL from @jenissamichelle!

"In YA, a buildup in suspense (13 REASONS WHY) with a diverse cast of characters. Similar to EVEN IF WE BREAK by Marieke Nijkamp or ONE OF US IS LYING where different POV's can help drive the plot."

I would love to find a juicy YA drama or thriller with strong characterizations and a rich setting (BIG LITTLE LIES, but make it diverse and YA and set in a fresh, intriguing location). #MSWL

Here's a #MSWL thread I made a while back, for any agents who are curious about my wild SFF appetites!

“Stories that celebrate neurodiversity, from authors who are themselves neurodivergent, both in fiction and non-fiction, Middle Grade, Young Adult, and Adult.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

I'm looking for all fiction in mg and ya, plus adult SFF (from the lightest touch to high) and romance. Especially looking for queer and disabled representation. Full details in link in bio. Tagging @KellyDHouse to go next in this @TheTobiasAgency #mswl day!

#mswl Now I'm settled at @TheTobiasAgency, I'm open to queries: esp. seeking mystery, suspense, thrillers; nonfiction highlighting unique and diverse perspectives; romance (MG thru adult); querymanager.com/query/jacquili… Also tagging
@Sarah_Nicolas--what are you looking for?

For my personal #MSWL I adore a wide range of genres but especially sci-fi, fantasy, horror and romance (or any mix of the above!) Particular interest in stories with LGBTQ+, disabled and diverse characters. Incidental representation a plus - no more bury your gays pls! #WMPitch

It's time for another #MSWL, BookEnds book friends!

This time from @PinaRamona:

"I usually go for spec lit but I'm in the mood for psychological thrillers like YOU & GONE GIRL with more diverse characters."

Putting out an #MSWL call for QBIPOC romance in YA and adult. I want all the steam/heat, yearning, humor, and heart.

pls pls pls send me your f/f romance or rom-coms with diverse MCs in a one-night stand, forced proximity, or in any trope really. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 #romancelandia

& similarly, diverse Southern voices, always, for every audience/genre I represent. As an agent, I'd love to fill bookshelves about the breadth of the real South, not the stereotyped South.

Things I'm currently looking for: Stories with a Black main character, stories that explore subjects like racism, homophobia, etc., a transgender character, a character with a disability, story where the main character falls in love with the unnoticed, locked room thrillers #MSWL
