14/ Finally, I want to connect w/ historically marginalized and underrepresented writers! We need the stories that only YOU can tell in this world. Queer/Trans protagonists, love stories, or just-existing-casually-because-that's-real-life; plus BIPOC perspectives and disabled voices across genres. 🙏

- trans characters in any setting, any genre. but especially if you’ve got a trans rom com!

- stories set in the PNW, Appalachia, or arctic!

- mother-daughter stories and sisterhood stories!

I would love to see more queer fiction--historical, crime, horror. I want it all! #MSWL

I'm looking to celebrate diversity in every way possible: BIPOC, LGBTQ+, ability, etc. #MSWL

Across all genres, I'm always look for:
-LGBTQIA+ authors
-diverse stories
-marginalized voices
-compelling writing
-dynamic characters
-subverting well-known tropes
-unexpected endings
-books with big emotions
-settings in the Midwest/South

I would love to see more queer romance in my inbox. I’m a fan of authors like Alexis Hall, Kris Ripper, Cat Sebastian, Helen Hoang, Kennedy Ryan, Meryl Winsler…and bonus points for neurodivergence representation, as an autistic agent who speaks neuroatypical! :) #MSWL

In contemporary YA, I want weird. I want queer. I want earnestness unafraid of itself. I want wordplay. I want fun. Would love to see something contained within a unique setting—on set at a TV show, at sea, something about leap years… #MSWL

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! 🏳️‍🌈🕵️😈
