#MSWL #PB #kidlit ❤️🏳️‍🌈

James and the Giant Peach but a PB and the MC is a #queer child who leaves home to embark on a wondrous, magical journey of self-discovery by himself. (Magical realism, loneliness, resilience, bravery, finding home/yourself.)

17. I *DO* want to see diversity in my inbox and in the world. *DO* send me LGBTQIA+ stories, diversity in families, etc.

I’m good with swears in books if it’s appropriately used/not overdone. Swearing for the sake of swearing in a 📖 is not my jam. (Even though I’m a swearer!)

So excited to announce that I'll be opening for queries next week on Monday!

My full #MSWL can be found on my website: leahnovamoss.wixsite.com/my-site/manuscript-wishlist

I can't wait to read your queries soon! I'll have a #MSWL thread up soon as well.

Flowing into September, here's what I would LOVE to see in my inbox: HORROR!!!! It's spooky time folks, and horror is probably my favorite genre. Let's see if we can tick that genre way up, especially from POC & queer writers. Ghosts are my absolute favorite. #MSWL

"Author/illustrator picture books. I love Liz Climo & Kim Smith, beautiful & colorful art, and geeky & queer stories."

My bookshelf is 50% character-driven sff/speculative/spooky, 50% realistic contemporary/historical (coming-of-age romance, mystery/thriller, action-adventure, and verse novels), mostly by BIPOC, queer, or traditionally underrepresented folks, & my taste very much reflects that.

#MSWL Agents, I've been seeing some fantastic YA sff subs. I'll never say no to sff that captures my heart, but I'm also on the lookout for gorgeously written verse/prose, layered coming-of-age (historical or contemp) esp if it weaves in queer romance and/or mystery/suspense.

#amwriting #amquerying I want:
👀Psych&domestic suspense set behind closed doors of exotic/aspirational/unusual places
🦻Crime&thrillers w/ own voices disabled characters as main protagonists
👯‍♀️Historical crime&adventure w/ a focus on women’s stories and/or queer narratives #mswl

"I want an LGBTQIA+ novel in the vein of ONE DAY (high concept, unique structure, deep and sweeping love story)."

"Send me romance with queer protagonists, especially aro/ace-spec (eg. DELILAH GREEN DOESN'T CARE by Ashley Herring Blake, LOVE & OTHER DISASTERS by Anita Kelly, and THE ROMANTIC AGENDA by Claire Kann)."

Or maybe what you have is not like anything we've ever seen before - super gay, weird, and innovative with all the seemingly disparate threads somehow coming together & there's just no way I could've known to want something like your bonkers creation. Well! I might want it then.

GN: absurd, funny MG; fantasy/spec like This Was Our Pact; YA like The Prince and the Dressmaker, Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up..., Genderqueer, Go with the Flow, The Magic Fish, beautiful coming-of-age like This One Summer that lingers w/you but make it all gay gay gay. 5/6
