Romance. I love romances and would love to see more (especially queer) romances in my inbox. YES, it has to end in a HEA or HFN--otherwise it's NOT a romance.
Would also love to see things that aren't enemies to lovers. Still open to it just would love to mix it up a little #MSWL

#mswl I still haven't signed a YA rom-com and I'd love to! Send me rom-coms please. I love fun, bantery romance with thoroughly teenage priorities, especially when grounded in queer or multicultural identities.

🧵/

#mswl heists please! YA or adult, contemporary or fantasy settings. Bonus if the heist is intended to right a legal injustice in the vein of the show Leverage or the book Portrait of a Thief. Extra bonus if there's a lesbian protagonist.

I'm primarily looking for upper YA and Adult:
-Everything queer
-Everything unapologetically feminist
-Marginalized voices

I'm more ready than ever to bring important voices to the forefront. Let's do this!
stormliteraryagency.com/madelyn-knecht.html

💕character & voice-driven stories of first love, queer awakening, enemies/rivals to lovers, tension, yearning, forbidden romance; complex characters trying their best; stakes that feel world-ending or that are literally world-ending; intersectionality (BIPOC, queer, disabled); trans; Indigenous 💕

OK haven't updated my #MSWL but while I'm still open wanted to let yall know I'm being super picky about fantasy. If you have:

-grumpy FMC / golden retriever MMC

-MM written by a gay man

-FMC is actually popular and loved and falls

-Grounded fantasy in Asia or Africa

Gimme!

All I want right now is a Horror, Thriller, a Spec novel (YA or Adult) with time loops, parallel universes, or alternate realities #mswl Preferably dark and queer.

Think Oxenfree (video game), and Dark (Netflix, German).

I want it baaad.

Hi publishing folx! My new #MSWL is live!
manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/erinn-pascal/

"I want literary and upmarket fiction about contemporary life, queer characters, mental health, friendship, nostalgia, existential dread—anything with 'cool girl' or 'sad girl' vibes."
mariavicente.com #MSWL

"Seeking generational stories of parenthood and family with non-binary and/or trans characters in the commercial or historical adult fiction genre (ie. heavy with plot!)"
Carly Watters #MSWL

#MSWL A YA or NA historical romance with a swoony love story and a strong hook in a setting that feels different. While regency England can be fun, I’d love something that hasn’t been done before. Bonus if it’s an LGBTQIA historical romance.

Oh, and sports romances! I really want LGBTQ sports romances, but specifically about the WNBA. #questpit #mswl

Y’all, I’m watching Beyond Skinwalker Ranch and I had an #MSWL thought: rival ufologists a la Skinwalker Ranch Travis and Ancient Aliens Giorgio but make it cozy and queer.

As always, I’d love to see horror (and every other genre!) from marginalized perspectives. BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, and disabled creators, please send me your stories! #mswl

Who’s going to write me a Black queer ballroom book? #MSWL

MSWL (5/?)
Graphic Novel

queer stories, horror GN, slice of life, pretty open

I am NOT open to MG or younger right now. That will happen in Nov/Dec

MSWL (3/?)
Fantasy - pretty open
Not a fit for Fae/Faeries, werewolves, elves

Contemporary - slice of life, “one day” stories, LGBTQ+, impactful stories; not necessarily looking for warm/fluffy contemporary right now; not a fit for SA, Drug Abuse, or child/animal abuse

I'm especially interested in queer stories with POC protagonists🤎

Reminder: I am open to submissions from LGBT+, Latino, Asian American, African American, and other diverse voices. Submissions must be adult fiction or nonfiction only. #MSWL
