#amwriting #amquerying

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

“Unlikely friendship novels with heavy plot & a feel-good ending.” @carlywatters #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

I watched Turning Red yesterday and I think I might watch it again today?? The friendship, the aunties, the extreme muchness of thirteen-year-old girls, I want it alwayssss #mswl

#MSWL (agented only) - adult - big, book club fiction about complex relationship dynamics (family, friendships, romance), forever holding out for a great, big family saga (like Pachinko)

#mswl my kingdom for contemporary MG horror in my inbox... especially with series potential. Excellent ensembles and friendship themes are a bonus!

#MSWL CONT:
-stories where the bff relationship is front and center. Give me your Shawn-and-Gus, weirdos together forever friendships.
-stories about the arts. I am forever that theater girl.

Adult romcoms with new twists on classic tropes: friends/enemies to lovers, fake dating, stuck together, opposites attract, second chances.” @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

some random things i just want to see because they'd bring me joy
- a character who has a pet hamster (i have two and they're SO CUTE)
- ragtag team-up that goes from reluctant to "i would die for any of you" in friendship/romance intensity

I can, have and will always enjoy reading about friendship.

But I am so interested in adult friendship dynamics these days. #MSWL

I want to read about:
✨ Queer kids & their queer friends
✨ Indigenous teens
✨ Deaf and/or HOH kids
✨ Mysterious towns w/ big secrets
✨ Kids living outside of the US
✨ Hyper specific hobbies & interests
#MSWL

Adult Fiction:
(Women's fiction) psychological thrillers/suspense, mystery, & family/friendship drama. I gravitate towards upmarket/commercial.
(Contemporary Romance) rom-coms, rom-coms & more rom-coms! Would love to see more LGBTQ+, diversity, relatable, & unique plots.
