MSWL for 2020: AKA, What I’d Like to See in My Agent Inbox! #mswl scribblesandwanderlust.com/2020/01/01/msw…

YA fantasy! I’m all about witchy blood magic—darker is better (does anyone see a trend here yet). Queer! Enemies to lovers! Magic with consequences! Tangled friend/family relationships! Unique plot lines with lots of tension/conflict! AND DON’T FORGET THE KISSING I NEED KISSING

#MSWL I want diverse fantasy novels comped to The Witcher, please

#mswl ✨

I’d also like some more MG fantasy! #MSWL

I'm eager to find more middle grade, from contemporary standalones & illustrated MG to sweeping adventure & fantasy series. I'd love more YA contemp & grounded YA fantasy or "twist of magic" stories, too. And YA paranormal (I'm here for your vampires & werewolves) #mswl

I’m reading a manuscript that’s reminding me of Lost Planet, and goodness, do I miss that game.

I wish the sequels had kept up with all the wonder of the first one. Someone reboot it, thanks.

Also, more fantasy adventure novels with giant monsters and snow please. #MSWL

“I read widely in YA, and enjoy just about every genre in it. I love moving contemporary reads, thrilling sci-fi, and lush fantasy.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

OK, so I just updated my #MSWL.

And just as a warning, y'all....it's long.

I'm not sure if it is more or less helpful now...
