2) Whoever brings me a queer YA read-alike to Casey McQuiston's Red, White, & Royal Blue and/or One Last Stop will win my heart forever (and more to the point, a lot of money 😇)

Officially wrapped on 2020 submissions! Agents, here's my #mswl for this year.

Before I start: I will always be looking to foreground queer and BIPOC voices, and on the hunt for killer hooks I can't even finish pitching without someone mashing the preorder button.

Let's go!

Or 40 YR Old Virgin but, you guessed it, Black, BIPOC, and queer!!!!! #mswl 21 Jump Street but??? Black, BIPOC, queer?!?!!!??!?!? !WHERE IS THAT?>!>":?<REQW?KRMSD>LGJDSR:U

Where is the Adult Women's Fiction that transforms The Hangover or Bridesmaids into something very black or BIPOC and very queer? #mswl Fuck, give me A Devil Wears Prada that's but with anything but the corporate world. Black, BIPOC, queer only.

Where is the modern day queer Black Superbad YA I've been wanting my whole life? #mswl

#MSWL (but also everyone should just read @PaperAshes’ A DARK AND HOLLOW STAR)

I'm looking for Middle Grade and Young Adult manuscripts, strong and diverse voices, as well as brave and character-driven narratives across all genres. I'm always looking for #ownvoices LGBTQI+

thread and honestly any beat of this story is a #MSWL for me in especially #MG & also #YA

#MSWL!!! We are seeking queer kid lit about whichever letter in LGBTQIA+ is meaningful to you. We want to help make the world a better place, so send your queer kid lit our way!

For Queer Memoirs, I am particularly interested in memoirs from queer authors about their queerness and the intersections of their identity.... #mswl

For Queer Adult Romance novels, I want books with queer protagonists that have distinct personalities and a fast pace. I love nearly any genre, but require that the story is queer, feminist, and body positive... #mswl

(YA/MG genre continued) Like with contemporary, I am especially interested in queer, disabled, and BIPOC protagonists, especially when the books are not issue driven. But above all give me a good, page turning adventure. #mswl

(YA/MG contemp continued) I am especially interested in queer, disabled, and BIPOC protagonists, especially when the books are not issue driven. #mswl

I am open to queries for all ages, fiction and nonfiction, for graphic novels, but especially love when a book has strong themes of love and/or friendship, and is extra queer. #gn #mswl #queer #lgbtq

For all the books I work with, I prefer to work with queer creators and BIPOC creators, and strongly encourage those creators to send me their work. Regardless of genre, age, subject, I like lighthearted, emotional, hopeful, adventurous reads. #mswl

Not those "episode of the week", let's learn to be nice to people who have disabilities. I want the cool fun stuff they get to do after people stop being jerks! #mswl This also applies for POC, LGBTQIA and other groups that usually have "issue books." JOY BOOKS.

To get an idea of what I'm looking for from #amquerying writers, check out this #MSWL thread I'll be updating throughout the day. #YA & #MG #fiction only. To start, I absolutely would love to see submissions by BIPoC and LGBTQ+ authors and writers with disabilities. #mswl

I am ALWAYS seeking #OwnVoices stories by BIPOC and LGBTQ+ authors, non-western settings, and strong voices.

#MSWL

I'd really love a ghostly horror story that is one part all those sea shanties we can't stop listening to, one part The Lighthouse, and a dash of The Terror. Even better if it's BIPOC and LGBTQIA+. #MSWL
