• Fantasy and other speculative fiction that uses the conventions of its genre to critique, subvert, or illuminate a truth about our world
#MSWL 9/?

• Authentic, #ownvoices representations of characters with marginalized and intersectional identities, particularly in stories of adventure, romance, friendship, joy, and personal growth
#MSWL 8/?

• Original, unforgettable characters with the potential to become universally beloved household names
• Expansive, unique & cinematic worlds—whether fantastical or a part of the real world that’s been underrepresented or that feels fresh through the creator’s eyes

Broadly, I and my colleagues at Disney are looking for big bets with high-concept commercial hooks, expert plotting and pacing, and the potential to become lead titles. #MSWL 4/?

I'm primarily focused on MG & YA comics, but I'd love to find some early reader/chapter book-level comics that feel in line with these interests, and I selectively acquire graphic novels for adults, as well, for Disney's new adult imprint, Hyperion Avenue. #MSWL 3/?

First off, I'm @DisneyBooks's resident graphic novel expert! We're looking to grow that list fast, so for the time being I am ONLY open to graphic novel submissions.

(Sorry, prose & picture book writers—but I'll see you with my IP pitches!) #MSWL 2/?

I'm actively seeking to build my client list. I’m open to queries for mostly young adult, middle grade fiction and #graphicnovels. Check out my full #MSWL at SeraRivers.com #kidlit #amquerying #amwriting #YA #ownvoices serarivers.com/mswl

My #MSWL is live now! I exclusively look at GN submissions, and I'm glad I have an easy way to direct people to all the things I love :) manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/sami…

I'm really hoping to find more realistic MG graphic novels in my inbox this spring. I would love to see books like:

Free Lunch
Rollergirl
The Prince and the Dressmaker
New Kid

#mswl

BRIGADOON meets THE GOOD PLACE #MSWL either YA GN or YA prose.

Been meaning to mention that I have an editor #MSWL page a la @ManuscriptWList.

#Writers: this may also be a helpful starting point to see what a #literaryagent is looking for in #submissions.

No joke! I'm open to queries again!

Open until June 30! Updated #mswl here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/nata…

PB/CB/MG/YA/GN, fiction & nonfiction, and adult nonfiction

I recently reread ALMA AND HOW SHE GOT HER NAME and it’s truly one of my all time favorites. I’d love to see more projects in my inbox exploring the things—names, food, places—that connect us with the generations before us. PB (author-illustrator only), MG/YA novel, GN. #mswl

I’m loving all the nonfiction queries I’m getting! I’d also love to see more illustrators/graphic novelists who are interested in creating/working on NF projects for kids. #mswl

Rainy Sunday #MSWL: agents, if you have a MG novel or graphic novel about girls skateboarding, PLEASE send it to me!!

#mswl Someone give me a xxxHolic-esque YA GN. And make it queer, don't tease and then break my heart like CLAMP did. Thanks.

5: Author-illustrator graphic novels (in all age groups) and picture books. I could make a list a mile long of favourites, but think TEA DRAGONS, THIS ONE SUMMER, BE PREPARED, and anything by the Fan Brothers or Jessie Sima.

Also I need more graphic novels #MSWL

I would love some brilliant, atmospheric YA horror that is reminiscent of THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE or a slasher like SCREAM.

I've also become a fan of novels-in-verse across middle grade and YA.

And I'd love to add a few more graphic novels to my list across all ages! #mswl
