Funny, authentic, and brutally honest stories, like anything by Jenny Lawson
Unique and niche topics, coffee table books

Please refer to my profile on Storm’s website for my complete #MSWL and use my QT link to query me. I cannot wait to read your materials!

If my username didn't tip you off, it's definitely a bonus if your kidlit project is funny! I love comedies, parodies, satires, and witty adventure stories. I prefer hopeful and fun stories, so if your book makes me cry it probably also needs to make me laugh. #MSWL

Also anything that gives me the feeling of Bartimaeus by Jonathan Stroud. A genuinely funny, sarcastic MC, a fleshed-out world (either based in ours or not), and lovable character dynamics. #MSWL

I am particularly on the hunt for horror-comedy, even something a bit campy (Patricia Wants to Cuddle, Bless Your Heart). Same goes for humor in mystery/psychological thrillers (Dial A for Auntie, Finlay Donovan, etc). Would be very open to a mash-up of a funny horror amateur-sleuth too #MSWL

I love hilarious writing, whether it's a fresh rom-com or cozy mystery. Bring on the funny! #MSWL

Picture books are my guilty pleasure! #MSWL

Books of my 💛: I WANT MY HAT BACK, SOUL FOOD SUNDAY, PLANTING STORIES... PURA BELPRÉ

I'm still searching for a mystery ala CLUE--quirky, funny, with murder. #MSWL

to lovers -- somebody making it out of the friendzone.

Thriller: I would love a psychological thriller! Something that really makes me think and has me on the edge of my seat!

In MG: I would love a funny contemporary story that is relatable to all -- friendship breakups,

Romance: I'm looking for a modern love story -- modern meaning within the year we are currently in. I would love anything that is funny, witty, and feels like I’m in a modern Kate Hudson movie. This is more for NA/Adult and in YA I would love a good rivals to lovers or friends

I am loving this book. I’d love to represent books like it: super specific slices of life that have universal themes. Bonus points if the book is funny, set in CA, or features SoCal. #mswl

Across the board, I'd like to see more funny books, but especially in picture book and middle grade. #MSWL

Hello #MSWL I'd love to see:
:: new trade / literary author-illustrated pb story/dummies
:: endearing, quirky, unexpected, delightful, funny characters
:: strong emotional arc | eliciting connection w/ child

I just watched BOTTOMS and, unfortunately, it's going to be my personality for a few months. I'd love a YA with that level of funny, young voice and tropes taken to absurdist extremes.

In #PB I’m on the lookout for funny, child-centered books with a clear narrative arc and amazing character who could possibly carry more than one story. I’m not looking for PB bios right now, but am open to NF that surprises, especially if it involves the natural sciences.

Though I've been dipping my toes into younger children's books lately, the only children's genre I'm actively seeking out is YA. I love a funny contemporary YA novel, a twisty mystery, or a super dark horror novel. Basically, I'm looking for the same genres in adult and YA. #MSWL

I enjoy absurd, surreal books, whether they're funny or serious. Bring on the fabulism. #MSWL
