Moving on to romance---please please PLEASE send me your swoony stories. I'm not getting nearly enough of them in my inbox. In romance, I'm open to historical, contemporary, and paranormal. #MSWL
Suzie Townsend @sztownsend81 · 12 Sep 2018
Also on my #MSWL: more MG! I lean more towards the "quieter" stories rather than the big adventures, but I still need a strong hook/main plotline. I love fantasy, contemporary, historical--all of it.
Carly Watters @carlywatters · 12 Sep 2018
Coming-of-age anything! Could have historical/magical realism twist i.e. THE TWELVE LIVES OF SAMUEL HAWLEY, YONAHLOSSEE RIDING CAMP, AFTER HER, THE SECRETS OF LAKE ROAD, THE GIRLS, HISTORY OF WOLVES, GIRLS ON FIRE, AGE OF MIRACLES #mswl
Leslie Zampetti @leslie_zampetti · 12 Sep 2018
P.S. When I say I'm looking for historical fiction from little-known times and places, I mean it. World War II? Roman Empire? Western Europe? Nope, nope, and nope.
How about Africa or Polynesia? Far Eastern or South American countries pre-colonization or Western contact? #MSWL
Carly Watters @carlywatters · 12 Sep 2018
Multi POV, time slip or dual past/present narrative structure women’s fiction, historical, domestic suspense, or upmarket like THE ALICE NETWORK, THE SUBWAY GIRLS. #mswl

Historical romance with diverse heroes/heroines. I want to know about the Regency peeps of African/Indian/Jewish (&more!) descent. #MSWLWhat she said! Regency romances with diversity - bonus points for settings outside of England. #MSWL
Carly Watters @carlywatters · 12 Sep 2018
Historical novels where plot & setting have to work together i.e. NIGHTINGALE, ARCADIA, GIRL YOU LEFT BEHIND. I’m not interested in writers using historical to tell me how much research they’ve done. I want a very plotty historical. Beatriz Williams-esque. #mswl

So excited for #MSWL Day today! Here’s a thread of things that I would love to see in my inbox, outside of my general submission interests. For any #amwriting #amquerying authors out there who may think their manuscript matches one of these, please feel free to use my MSWL link.#MSWL I’d love to see a historical dark fantasy that revolves around the 70s Glam Rock scene...basically Velvet Goldmine meets Picture of Dorian Gray.
Jessica Felleman @jmfelleman · 12 Sep 2018
The Hate You Give (Angie Thomas) meets Joan of Arc. Historical fiction based on real young women kicking ass and taking names #mswl
Kelly 📚 @LitAgentKelly · 12 Sep 2018
#MSWL Historical Fiction in YA! I'm so in love with Ruby from Cold Mountain. I love her voice and if you could put that into a YA Gunslinger Girl in Colonial times, I'd be so in love. <3
