MIDDLE GRADE
I really love finding a good magical MG novel, but I’m open to a wide range here. Voicey contemporaries, mystery, magical realism/contemporary fantasy, graphic novels, historical fiction, verse, epistolary. When in doubt, send it my way! #MSWL

ICYMI: I am opened back up to queries! I’m particularly looking for picture books, middle grade, graphic novels (any age), and adult fiction. Flood my inbox, friends. 💜#MSWL

Check out my #MSWL page for lots more (manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/kris…), and query me here!: querymanager.com/query/kristino…

Graphic “Novel” #MSWL

🍂 realistic teen stories
🍂 graphic memoir
🍂 graphic nonfiction
🍂 psychological horror

Note: I’m currently only looking for projects created by author/illustrators (one creator both writing and illustrating the book).

Is your WIP a middle grade or YA graphic novel? @AnissaDorsey777 wants to see it! #mswl #WritingCommunity #amquerying

Bob's Burgers would make a great comp for a graphic novel, just saying #MSWL twitter.com/SoCalledYALife…

Also I am obsessed with cartoons right now so naturally we are #MSWL from that world in comps: twitter.com/SoCalledYALife…

With #pitmad coming up, here’s a quick snapshot of my #mswl — I’m looking for adult commercial fiction, specifically fantasy, sci-fi, rom-coms, historical romance, paranormal romance and thrillers from BIPOC & LGBTQIA2S+ writers. Also open to graphic novels in the same genres! 📚

I'm thrilled to participate in #LatinxPitch on 9/15! I'm especially looking for #GN and #YA novels! I'll add more #mswl themes to this thread! #amquerying #kidlit #BIPOC #Latinx

Please send me YA and adult graphic novels! Would love to see more in my inbox #MSWL

I am really intrigued by the series EXPLAINED on Netflix. Watching the Tattoo episode now and I think this series would make a inspire MG GN NF book series. #MSWL

I would love to see a #youngadult #graphicnovel with battling street artists, similar to the movie 8 Mile but with spray cans instead of lyrics! #mswl #YA #GN #Kidlit #amquerying #streetart

High on my #MSWL list:
Contemporary Southern Gothic
Creepy Historical Gothic
Give me haunted manors, haunted woods, haunted histories
Add a dash of magic, even better!!
Fantasy RomCom
More YA urban fantasy
MG adventure and mystery and puzzles to solve
GN for MG and YA

Please send me a graphic novel about a Jewish summer camp!! I promise I will never love anything more!! #mswl

this is an extremely niche #mggn #mswl but i'd actually love a middle grade graphic novel set in philly, centering on a kid in the midst of the spotted lantern fly swell, killing bugs and feeling big feelings about how the whole thing is a metaphor for ~life~

6: Wholesome but quirky. This has been in my wheelhouse a LONG time, and I want more of it. You know slice of life anime? You know @_wholesomegames? That. In book form, or graphic novel. Adult only, please. Bonus for cottagecore aesthetics.

Briefly popping back in to say that I'm still looking for contemporary w/LGBTQIA+ characters! Same goes for the rest of the list, but I'm especially in the mood for contemporary right now. Really looking for strong voice w/a compelling internal conflict. #MSWL

(Agented only.)

My #MSWL these days: Fiction: Adult Suspense, YA contemporary (any subgenre), YA and MG Graphic Novels.
Nonfiction: Pop Culture, or Narrative Nonfiction that reads like a novel, but is 100% researched. I remain open to other stuff, but the above is what I really want.

“Graphic Novels, graphic memoirs, and graphic nonfiction in all age categories.” @msmariavicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation

“I’d love to see more YA or MG illustrated nonfiction or graphic novels about women’s rights, reproductive health, and adjacent topics (pop culture included).” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/
