My #5 #mswl ALL THE KIDLIT GRAPHIC NOVELS! I'm sort of obsessed with graphic novels right now. Especially looking for author-illustrators. I would really love some nonfiction graphic novels!

Hello, my spookers! Do you love ghosts even half as much as I do? Send me all your ghost stories. I'll take adult fiction (scary or fun), a history of haunted places in America, an illustrated book-- you name it, I'm here for it. #MSWL

I’m especially keen to see funny or lyrical picture book texts/dummies, author-illustrated young fiction, magical middle grade, literary and/or funny and/or high concept YA, clever non-fiction angles… and diverse voices in all of the above.

✨ATTN COMICS WRITERS ✨

Hey y’all! I’m looking for #comics #writers and #illustrators with a penchant for nonfiction writing for a great, new #graphicnovel, #middlegrade series. If you feel this is you, let’s chat. My DMs are open. Oh, and please boost!

“Illustrated books in all age categories.” @msmariavicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation

Just a reminder that in the picture book category I am only looking for author-illustrated works.
Not author only.
Not illustrator only.
#MSWL

If you are querying a MG or YA graphic novel, especially if you are an author-illustrator, I'd love to see it. #PitMad #BVM #MSWL

#MSWL please keep these great submissions coming from Black children’s book writers! I’m also interested in author-illustrators with existing picture book dummies. #BlackVoices find me through the Stimola website through the submission form. 🖤

I'm constantly catching up on queries (which have gone up 200% since the pandemic hit). One category I'd love to see more of are graphic novels for kids and teens. Contemporary/fantasy/historical. Always diverse voices! Especially if an author/illustrator. #MSWL

Here is my #mswl darleyandersonblog.com/2020/02/25/mee… Generally, outside of crime, things that are uplifting & are about finding/making connections. High concept, feel-good, love stories. And across children's uplifting again, funny, things inspired by kindness and nature.

Saying it again....I’m looking for a diverse, MG or YA graphic novel by an author or an author/ illustrator! #mswl

Rounding up a few #mswl tweets that I will now think of as my official #QuarantineMSWL (1/?)

My picture book #MSWL changed recently: I’m looking for author-illustrators (instead of text only projects) but I will make an exception for contests (like DVPit!), critiques, and conferences.

This #MSWL is a big ask for me as well! You don't see enough of these.

Illustrated/graphic novel style non-fiction is something that I really want to see more of in my inbox!

Cookbooks and food are great, but I would love to see author/illustrator teams work on other topics as well like film, books, nature, science, pop culture, etc. #MSWL

Hey, #illustratos and #graphicnovel #authors, I made a #mswl Pinterest board just for you! pinterest.com/literary_tara/…

I am still very much on the hunt from MG and YA non-fiction! I am always on the hunt for great queer books of all ages and I would love to add some more queer illustrators to my list! #MSWL

Something I've been doing this week is look for trans, nonbinary, and genderqueer illustrators. So many of the books I represent are written by and tell the stories of those identities and it would be great to have the covers illustrated by queer artists. Hit me up! #MSWL

Would love more graphic novels and author-illustrators for all ages, too!

now that many editors are working remotely from home, I've been sending out lots of new picture book stories from my author/illustrators... here's to reading! #MSWL and big hugs to #kidlitart peeps xo
