It's pride month! I'm gonna re-up my publishing ask for more upper middle-grade / younger YA books that feature kids (esp kids of color) who identify as being on the ltbtqia+ spectrum, THANKS.

This is eternally on my #MSWL. I really want diverse lgbtqia+ middle grade on my client list, especially stories for those queer girl-identifying tweens.

Silvia Moreno-Garcia @silviamg

Reminder that not all work by POC must be weighty, dramatic books. White authors got to write thousands of fluffy books and cash the checks. We shouldn't be appreciated only when it gets dark and horrible.

I so badly want these “fluffy” YA books by POC and LGBTQ+ writers. As much as I love angst and think “issue books” are super important, I also love ridiculously fun stories that make readers feel good about life (including their identities). #MSWL

I dug through hundreds of obituaries & spoke to gay ballplayers from the 1940s up through the 1990s to find the queer history of women in baseball that we stand to lose if it isn't documented. narrative.ly/the-hidden-que…

This piece on the queer women of baseball is brilliant and worth a read to start off #Pride. Also, if anyone's writing a queer take of A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN, please send it my way! I'd love to find a F/F historical YA sports project. #MSWL

Melissa Croce @melissacroce

random thought: i'm sure it's been done by SOMEONE but is there a modern-day LGBTQ+ book based on Pride & Prejudice that takes place during Pride?? I mean, COME ON, it's just too PERFECT!!!

#MSWL Thanks for doing my job for me Melissa bc I WANT THIS

Y'all, I'm really in the mood for some queer scifi romance, especially if it's somewhat light in tone. (Less BSG, more Firefly.) Spaceships, other worlds, fun times, please. #MSWL

“I want an lgbt character who is also a POC who is open but isn’t defined by either one of those traits and is still a well-written, three dimensional character”

Richard Lawson @rilaws

I want a gay thing about gay adults who are relatively well-adjusted and aren't dying, that is wistful, hopeful, fun. I realize history and present circumstance don't quite allow for that but it'd be nice. A MOONLIGHT that's all that meal, or GOD'S OWN COUNTRY: THE TOGETHER YEARS

Hell yes #MSWL

Lauren Abramo @LaurenAbramo

I've (finally!) updated my #MSWL page. #amquerying writers, please stop on by to see what I'm looking for! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/laur…

My #MSWL includes, among other things: MG/YA fiction & adult fic/NF by authors who are: trans and/or non-binary or otherwise not cis, disabled and/or #actuallyautistic, and/or Indigenous. Including any intersections thereof, & whether or not the work focuses on identity.

I'd like to see more cozy mysteries in my box, especially if you have a humorous voice & a fresh hook (no knitting, bookstores, etc.). Anyone have a cozy with a LGBTQ couple who solves the mystery? *grabby hands* #MSWL

#mswl the hannah montana movie but with murder and queer kid protags

so I guess like... queer caitlin's way... is that too dated a reference?

Actually thinking back on Caitlin's Way, I LIVED for Caitlin and Griffin's cousin/sibling relationship, that was the good stuff. Gay teens on a ranch with siblings or cousins & there's murder (but not of gays, no gay kids die), please. #ya #mswl

#mswl f/f YA romance where they both play hockey. It is very specific, and @diebelra, who is amazing and deserves the book of her dreams, wants you brilliant people to find her one
