#MSWL a fantasy #YA but with a himbo of a man like Gawain on an epic quest. make it queer, make it all-BIPOC, please

I continue to be very into historical lesbians, so please send their stories to me. #mswl

Anyway, if you’ve got an f/f car heist adventure-romance novel to query, #MSWL

YA with the concept of The Dread Pirate Roberts, perhaps gender-flipped or queer. #MSWL

Time for an updated #MSWL post! 🌟

manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/hann…

First and foremost, I'm looking for BIPOC voices, queer voices, disabled voices, and generally, voices from historically excluded backgrounds.

#amagenting

❤️ #Romance: Any, especially historical, contemporary, rom-com, clean & wholesome, fantasy, holidays, and inspirational. #MSWL

LGBT stories are also welcome.

MG/YA #MSWL cont:
☑️ Queer ballet (if you caught #QueertheBallet's ANIMALS & ANGELS last month, I WANT THEIR STORY!!)
☑️ Found families
☑️ Stories where race, gender, sexuality aren't the center. They can just be bad-ass characters!

MG/YA #MSWL
Wants:
☑️ Horror (darker the better but keep it in the age category)
☑️ Rom-coms with a hook
☑️ Spec (especially afro-futurism & magical realism variety)
☑️ Mysteries (gimme the new Westing Game!!!)
☑️ Historicals with a twist (spec, queer, mystery, etc.)

All-Age Category #MSWL wants
☑️ BIPOC
☑️ Queer/Trans
☑️ ND
☑️ Disability
☑️ Religions & spiritual beliefs that are underrepresented in publishing
☑️ Intersectionality

Basically: The world we live in is diverse. Books written for kids in the 21st century should reflect that.

hi #amquerying & #WritingCommunity folx,

i’d love to see more:

• contemporary stories for MG-Adult
• rom-coms, especially in YA (queer & diverse). I want a BIPOC f/f story so badly!
• twisty YA thrillers and horror (& adult, always!)

#mswl

I simply devoured Nekesa Afia’s “Dead Dead Girls”. If anyone has a historical murder mystery with a queer/BIPOC protagonist in their drawer, send it my way!🥂 #MSWL

Plus, if you can bear the thought of partnering with an agent who would have to start contacts from nothing, then #MSWL on sporting bonkbusters. Extra credit if they're a) an unusual sport and b) queer!

Rereading Rainbow Rowell’s “Carry On” before I finish up the trilogy and it’s reminding me of how much I love magic boarding school/academia settings. I’d love to see a twist on the classic trope with, of course, a queer romance!💫 #MSWL

Just finished Alexis Hall’s “Rosaline Palmer Takes the Cake”: what a delight! Send all of the queer baking rom-coms my way, friends!🍰 #MSWL

Romance. All the romance. Gothic, LGBTQIA+, romance in space (hello, WINTER’S ORBIT), unrequited love, erotic kneeling, enemies to lovers. I love ALL THE TROPES. I’d especially love to see some disaster bisexuals in any setting, just being disastrous. #MSWL

Hi hello I’d love a very queer and very snarky YA heist novel please and thanks #MSWL
