3. Middle grade, whether prose, verse, or graphic novels. Must have heart, lovable MC's who face challenges, friendship or sibling stories (would love to see more of these), open to magical or speculative elements and would like a touch of genre w/o too many tonal changes. #MSWL

6) 5) Urban Fantasy - our world plus magic or magic creatures (the vampire nextdoor, magical tattoos, alt. history w/ magic)

7) Magic schools, but for the parents and teachers rather than the kids (think The Incadescent or Grimmoire Grammar School Parent Teacher Association)

1) African and/or Caribbean inspired, anti-colonial fantasy (from someone of that background or ancestry)

2) A REALLY GOOD adventure - think Indiana Jones, Clive Cussler, Pirates of the Caribbean

Bonus points for swashbuckling and impossible escapes, but consistent rules/magic

I'd also like grounded fantasy or magical realism, sci fi, dystopian, paranormal, and select romance. Additionally, I'm seeking contemporary, coming-of-age stories with characters from low-income families and historical fiction featuring historically underrepresented identities.

Before closing to queries at the end of the month I’d love to see more botanical/eco horror with non-western fantasies & folklore. I’m also looking for deep sea horror, covens, inventive magical realism with mystical elements, & works that lean on lush purple prose. #MSWL

Before I close on May 9, if you have an adult, YA or MG that is grounded in reality but has a magical or fantasy component, you should send me that. Romance in YA or Adult preferred, but not required. #MSWL
