Late to the party, but I finished the absolutely brilliant Heartstopper🧡👏, and like Skins, SKAM, and Sex Education, I’m desperate for more complicated/positive depictions of friendships, gender, sexuality & coming of age #MSWL *open till August, hit me up before end of month!

I’m also interested in a friendship YA or MG that comps to SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING PANTS, but with an entirely BIPOC cast. #MSWL

I'd like a friendship thriller in the vein of Dead to Me. #MSWL

I'm still looking for a great YA friendship breakup story, in the vein of Ashley Woodfolk and Amy Spalding, with or without a romance component. #MSWL

I'd love to see more friendship stories in my inbox about women of color, in the vein of FIONA AND JANE by Jean Chen Ho! #MSWL

A thrilling #MSWL from @BookEndsJessica:

"Domestic suspense featuring anything but a cis-het marriage. Like work, friendship, parent/child. Recently read and loved THE GOLDEN COUPLE, MY SWEET GIRL, THE PUSH."

Okay, #BigBoys on #Channel4 was everything I wanted it to be and more. Any YA in this vein / themes exploring friendship, queerness, masculinity, mental health / books that look at the British uni experience in an open & honest way - please send them straight into my inbox #MSWL

- History & historical fiction that centers marginalized perspectives!
- Charming, Agatha Christie-esque mysteries!
- Stories exploring the impact of immigration!
- Friendship stories! Whimsical romps! Fun & fast-paced adventures!
- FOOD! Forever & always food!

And of course…

Hi #SWANApit! I just found out about you! I’ll take a peek at the feed and provide instructions on how to submit if I ❤️ your pitch. If I miss your pitch, and you think we’ll be a match, I encourage you to submit your query, you can find my #mswl here: evascalzo.com/MSWL

I love friendship stories, mother/child, complicated relationships and partnerships, In all of this I want more marginalized authors. There are just too many voices and stories not being heard and told. #MSWL

My areas of expertise are upmarket and literary fiction, women's fiction, mystery, suspense and thriller. I love books w/ strong family focus (found, friends, those you're born with) and home. Even in mystery I love those connections #MSWL

*drumroll* 🥁

#MSWL time!

From @BookEndsJessica:

"Upmarket fiction about family, friendship, found family--especially focusing on marginalized characters. Recent reads I wish I’d repped: YINK, WHERE IS YOUR HUZBAND, A HISTORY OF WILD PLACES, THE LAST THING HE TOLD ME."

And on the middle grade and YA side, I want funny, I want adventure, I want completely new, never-seen-before characters and settings, I want high-concept romances, lots of friendship and heart, just phenomenal stories and journeys all over🚀🌴

It's been a while, but I've updated my #MSWL! Find the link below and in my bio: bit.ly/3vx9lnR #amquerying

MG:
- Adventure stories with strong friendship groups, think City Spies or The Last Day of Summer.
- Fantasy in the vein of Tristan Strong, or Aru Shah.
- Horror, horror, horror! Creepy, crawly, funny & subversive. Think The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place (4/6) #mswl

I finally saw Turning Red and that is exactly the type of friendships I want to see in stories in ALL age groups! Please send them to me!! #MSWL
