I just got pitched a novel with a hidden trunk in the attic and family secrets galore! Somebody knows my #MSWL 😄😉
Actual footage of me reading computer:

#MSWL I’m very interested in projects from active duty military, veterans, and their family members. I want to hear your unique story! My brother suffers PTSD from his tour in Afghanistan and I have a soft spot for this underrepresented group of brave men and women.

I am also still looking for works of creative nonfiction that address issues not often talked about: from family dynamics to social justice, anything that explores those hard-to-define gray areas of our lives and that will really make me stop and think. #mswl

I’m currently closed to queries but I firmly #MSWL this for when I open. Family controlled (or puppet-ed) by (haunted, cursed maybe) mice figurines who hide their very real presence from most but are very active in a super bad way with those they manipulate. #horror

#MSWL: Adult Fiction: family sagas, complex juicy historical (think The Crimson Petal & the White, Queen of the Night), female friendship stories, Millennial fiction (think Sally Rooney or Casey McQuiston)

i feel like maybe i’ve said this before, but i’d really like to read a middle grade in the vein of bob’s burgers—lighthearted & full of shenanigans, and ultimately about growing up in a close-knit working class family #mswl

“Upmarket Fiction like LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE, COMMONWEALTH and THE LAST ROMANTICS. I love family drama.” @carlywatters #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Because @ZillianZi's Number One Chinese Restaurant absolutely ruined me last year. I desperately want to read a novel that makes me feel like that again. #MSWL

So.. I've been in #Poland for the last few weeks. Needless to say, I'm updating my #mswl. Please send me all of your royal Polish family stories (YA history, YA fantasy), stories based on Polish mythology (YA) and historical women's fiction. Who's writing about queen #jadwiga?

My wish list is up on the Madeleine Milburn website ✨ send me your MG and YA submissions! #mswl madeleinemilburn.co.uk/looking-for/ch…

Okay, this will be my last #mswl for a little while, but man I love multi gen family drama. If there's a nice mystery in there, or even some well placed magic - I'm in! xoxo #writingcommmunity

I love Kate Morton. I love the big reveal. I love the family dynamics. My favorite is THE DISTANT HOURS. Would love to find a YA that is like #MSWL

Some things I'd love to see in these genres. Family Saga, Small Towns, Missing Persons, Cold Case, Something dealing with Alzheimers/dementia, Anything Irish related or set in Ireland. #MSWL

"Commercial/upmarket fiction that handles family secrets/reconciliation w/tenderness like THE MEMORY GARDEN or TELL THE WOLVES I'M HOME." @kurestinarmada #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Finally got around to updating my #MSWL page! (#springcleaning)

You can find it here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/amy-…

When I say "I love love," I don't only mean romantic. I want stories about the love between friends and families, too. About the realities & limits of love. Love gone right & love gone wrong. Love that feels eternal & love that feels finite. Love beginning & love ending. #mswl

For MG and YA, I love books that explore family dynamics. I can go both ways here: books exploring family problems, or books where the family acts as something of refuge from the main conflict. #mswl

Finally made a #MSWL page 🎉 Check out all the many wonderful things I would love to see on submission here: bit.ly/2GlqYhZ
