It begins! I'm open to queries again @PSLiterary!Here's my wishlist, detailing the kind of projects I'm looking for. I'm searching for genre-blending literary fiction, accessible sci-fi and fantasy, non-fiction of all kinds, and MG and YA.
Let's chat! ericsmithrocks.com/mswl
When it comes to big specific #MSWL items:
🥰 Stories that celebrate neurodiversity, from authors who are neurodivergent.
💕 Joyful novels and powerful memoirs about the adoptee experience, written by adoptees.
✨ Genre blending romance and rom-coms. ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

Starting in January I will be accepting nonfiction queries in addition to YA. Send me your memoirs, pop culture, food, lifestyle, true crime, narrative, or any combo of the above! #MSWL #Nonfiction #WritingCommunity

In adult nonfiction, I'm still looking for untold histories, memoirs with a big hook especially if they are extreme sports or adventure stories, pop science, cookbooks, & culinary histories. Again, send me your weirds.

Literary Agent
For memoir, LONG LIVE THE TRIBE OF FATHERLESS GIRLS by T. Kira Madden blew me away, and two all-time favorites are EDUCATED by @tarawestover and WILD GAME by @adriennebrodeur

Though I’ve made an effort to change that over the last several years, I can’t buy what isn’t being published. I hope after reading this column, you’ll join me in asking publishers for more cookbooks from more diverse places, written by the people from those places.On the same wavelength--give me a narrative that ties food with memoir. Or! A novel! That ties food! With story! More like Mistress of Spices, The Particular Sadness... Pardon the pun, but I'm ravenous #MSWL

Literary Agent
I also adore memoirs — please see my fiction guidelines for these stories because (a) I’m drawn to the same themes in novels as I am in memoirs; and (b) a good memoir reads like a novel.

“YA non-fiction: Memoir, essay collections, you name it. Queer There & Everywhere is probably my favorite YA non-fic title in recent memory, and a great example of what I’d like to see.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

Early morning #MSWL tweets, as the toddler has been up since 6.
YA that celebrates neurodiversity, from writers who are (can’t stress that enough) neurodivergent.
Fiction and memoir from (stressing again) adoptees, on the adoptee experience.
Say hi! ericsmithrocks.com/mswl
