Happy #MSWL day! I’m an associate agent at Azantian Literary Agency, looking for:

•select middle grade
•young adult contemporary realistic fiction, and realistic-ish, like A.S. King
•queer romance
•adult nonfiction

Wanna dive deeper into my wishlist? Let’s!

- Queer rep that isn't about coming out (though maybe that's part of the plot), and esp stories where queer characters are questioning or quietly queer.
- Friendship break-ups
- Platonic friendships where peer pressure or social expectations complicate things
- Settings as characters

I’d also really love to find more LGBTQ sports romance #MSWL

I updated my #MSWL profile for #MSWL Day! I'd love to read a diverse, feminist or LGBTQ+ mystery or thriller...And I'm more interested in Europe than USA... manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social

I also would love a lesbian thriller that could be comped to Master of the House or Steadman's The Family Game. #MSWL

I prefer my spice on the kinkier side, and I would really love to find a romantasy with consensual, sex-positive, queer-friendly BDSM. Authors with deep knowledge of kink beyond D/s and light dirty talking will definitively have me picking up that manuscript so fast. #MSWL

Anything with a complicated, decades-long (or even centuries long if Fantasy/Paranormal) lesbian situationship at the core of the story. Yes, I’m an Agatha All Along fan. #MSWL

A queer rival-to-lovers sports romance. #MSWL

—Platform-based nonfiction in pop culture & lifestyle
—Accessible nonfiction abt neuroscience, sex, & relationships (especially by Queer/underrepresented voices)
—Pop science abt the natural world w/ a narrative approach (like Sy Montgomery's SOUL OF AN OCTOPUS or Juli Berwald's SPINELESS)
5/6 #MSWL

Regardless of genre, I'm seeking inclusive, intersectional voices & gorgeous line-level writing with emotionally compelling narratives. Some of my #MSWL includes:
—Horror that dismantles the gender binary & societal norms
—Occult conspiracies
—Cozy mysteries that center BIPOC/queer characters
2/6

Happy #MSWL day!
Some things I'm really excited to see in my inbox this year.
* Queer Stories - bonus points if they're joyful (but they don't have to be)
* Romance - bonus points if they're queer
* Stories highlighting strong female friendships
* Historicals from underrepresented voices
...

Happy #MSWL Day! I only accept agented submissions, but wanted to get into the fun. I'm an editor over at Chronicle Books, and I would love to find more MG novels this year—especially ones that feature queer kiddos with big feelings, are a KNIVES OUT-style mystery, or use horror as metaphor! 🏳️‍🌈🕵️😈

Hi #querying #booksky authors! I’m a literary agent always looking to fall in love with new manuscripts. Here is my current #MSWL : www.btaylorbooks.com/mswl

#MSWL First off, let me be clear that I actively look for authors and illustrators from marginalized groups (from all races, cultures, ethnicities, genders, LGBTQIA+, etc.).

Adult Fiction- writing style preferences vary from literary/more prose driven, to voicey and fast paced. However, I'm not a good fit for contemporary and lean heavily towards speculative, witchy, horror, SFF/F. I'm getting alot of LGBTQIA contemporary romances which I love as a reader, but don't rep.

Fairies/Fae/elves--I'm being completley honest here...they aren't my preference. Unless your fae are sapphic or gender queer, armor wearing, battle queens, it's likely not going to be what I'm looking for.

-Adult Mystery. I sold several I had on submission lately and really want to fill out my list here. Priority to mystery outside the U.S., younger protagonists, and diversity, especially queer and BIPOC. #MSWL I'm drawn to lighter mystery over crime or police stories.

-YA sports romance or contemporary romance. I really like almost all sports so pretty open here. Priority for sweet, light, romance plots, also queer and BIPOC stories. #MSWL

-Romantasy with some spice (a few scenes), though I'm usually more comfortable with longing and angst than actual spice. Priority here for outside of Europe, queer, and BIPOC. #MSWL

-Queer stories in every genre I'm opening to. I've sold most of the queer stories on my list and would love to find more.
