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

I just want to read something dark with a queer femme-leaning MC who doesn’t give much of a shit until she’s faced with her worst fear. Is that so much to ask?!?! #mswl

“Paging Romance writers! I’m looking for fun, romantic romps ala CRAZY RICH ASIANS particularly LGBTQ+ romances like RED WHITE AND ROYAL BLUE.” @maureen_moretti psliterary.com/submissions/ #MSWL

More #ownvoices queer and trans love stories in YA would be excellent! And YA graphic novels, too.

...trans characters; incidental working-class backdrops; all kinds of BAME stories...give me life in all it's beautiful variation! My inbox is still not showing me this, so at JULA we're cooking up ways of removing this barrier that still must exist for writers submitting to us.

Always, always, #ownvoices stories from under-represented writers and characters – including neuroatypical protagonists; characters with visible and invisible disabilities; stories involving unpaid carers and young carers; the broadest definition of queer love / sex stories...

#MSWL Would really love some mega queer YA. So long as it's hooky, I'm not super picky about genre (just not huge into high fantasy/high sci-fi). I love being surprised by pitches I might not've normally expected to go for. (A lot of what I bring to acquisitions starts that way.)

As a queer person, I’ve never dated anybody without body hair. So, love to see more queer folks in books & film with armpit, leg, tummy, pubic hair etc, please! #mswl #generalwl

I want this SO BADLY #MSWL

You know what... I would really like some super weird gay vampire manuscripts. Like GIDEON THE NINTH but vampires. #mswl

Queer epic fantasy in the vein of Melanie Rawn (Dragon Prince or Exiles series) and CS Friedman (Coldfire trilogy) would also be fab. #mswl

I'd love to see some queer epic fantasy a la Mercedes Lackey's Valdemar books. Adepts, big magic, sword-wielders, magical companions (I'm a secret horsegirl), and politics, oh my! #mswl

I’m always wanting this but like

Reading sawkill girls recently has made my want for f/f a goddamn obsession

SEND ME ALL YOUR SAPPHIC SHIT

Especially ones with girls made of razor-edges shards and anger and spite—I NEED IT

#mswl

Soooo I'm just going to pop in to say that a Sisterhood of Traveling Pants like friendship story with an all queer and/or POC cast of character has been on my #mswl for aaaawhile.

Some things I am looking for:
- YA RomCom (or adult) with a diverse cast and smart topics.
- MG/YA nonfiction
- LGBTQ+ nonfiction
- Graphic novels in pretty much anything on my wishlist
- #LGBTQIA+ characters in everything.
- Body diversity
- Underrepresented voices
#MSWL
