I'm hoping to rep YA, New Adult, and Adult fiction written by, for, and about traditionally underrepresented communities -- authors who write in these categories and are BIPOC, neurodiverse, queer, disabled, immigrants, etc., please come say hi! I want to work with you. :) #MSWL

My #MSWL is officially live, and I can publicly announce that I've been promoted to Associate Agent at jenniedunhamlit.bsky.social. This is a dream. I'm so excited to begin building my list, and can't wait to hear from you! <3 www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/le...

Just found out season 3 of #InterviewWithTheVampire is filming this month!! Reminds me of how badly I need some LGBT+ vampire stories in my life.

AND FINALLY

8) College-based stories (especially romance, but possibly fantasy too)

9) Romances feat. ace, demi, & trans characters. I always like any flavor of queer, but right now those feel the most urgent stories for me to get into the world.

Think of it like the middle finger to JK.

#mswl

I’m open to queries through the 7th!

I am on the hunt for MG and YA mysteries/thrillers, gothic horror, and intricate, inventive fantasy!

I’m especially looking for stories from BIPOC and queer writers.

#mswl

Since June is Pride month and I’ll be open to submissions the first 10 days, I want to be extra clear that I always love getting queries from LGBTQIA+ writers and illustrators. #MSWL

I am #opentoqueries until the end of June!
I am looking for:
-Romance (especially paranormal!)
-Coming-of-Age
-LGBT+
-Commercial fiction

A plus if any of the genres above feature Black protagonists, and I love characters that feel ALIVE.

"I want an LGBTQIA+ novel in the vein of ONE DAY, A LOVE SONG FOR RICKI WILDE (high concept, unique structure, deep and sweeping love story)."
Carly Watters #MSWL

#mswl reminder: I am still on the hunt for standout trans/genderqueer voices, particularly in YA but also MG, from speculative to gorgeously written coming-of-age. My partner is trans/nb, I’m genderfluid, and I will never stop championing genderqueer authors

I still have one big #MSWL I’m dying to find—
Teen witches with major Glinda and Elphaba vibes navigating HS drama and chaos but make it messy, queer, contemporary fantasy with an authentic voice and all the emotions. If you have this please message me for my query link

"I am passionate about representing under- or misrepresented voices, including BIPOC, LGBTQ2S+, disabled or chronically ill, and neurodivergent authors. I would especially love to get more submissions from fellow Latinx writers."

Maybe because these times are so horrifying but for YA, I’m really craving an atmospheric, layered horror mystery with the beautiful and lush but creepy vibes of Midsommar or The Honeys, even better if it’s romantic & queer #mswl

#MSWL Fiction or nonfiction by Black writers about marijuana—a book of essays, a cookbook for special brownies and treats of the sort, political analysis of legalization, a queer romcom with a budtender main character, fiction where a character gets high responsibly and nothing bad happens to them…

hyper specific #MSWL

three musketeers. any speculative shade, as long as it’s queer

specifically the vibes of this adaptation

I just found out about the Texas Gay Rodeo in Denton and now I really want a queer cowhand romance 🙏 #MSWL

Looking for the same things as usual: YA rom-coms that combine shenanigans with some deeper social issue, YA suspense focusing on local injustice, YA heists (please send me your lesbian heist novels!). Still on the lookout for a story about child labor rights.

Team howlandlit.bsky.social made me a gorgeous new #MSWL brochure. Here’s what I’m looking for when I open back up to queries in May.

Now that it’s PW official! I’m so excited to announce that I’ve joined jenazantian.bsky.social’s wonderful agency as an associate agent 🥰

And yes, I’m open to queries! Please check out my MSWL and submit to me via QueryTracker!

Would love more lgbtq+, family stories, stories about finding your community and supporting it
