⭐️And across the board, energetic, expressive, inventive, accessible, and commercial art (ideally full-color for middle grade, at least two-color for everything)
Editor
⭐️Middle grade humor with a big heart—I’d particularly like to explore careers outside of policing that nonetheless lend themselves to multiple adventures over the course of a series
Editor
I'm actively looking for middle grade fiction (age 8+, not chapter book) right now! I'd especially love to see:
⭐️Contemporary stories that take a “light and bright” approach to social change, solidarity, and self-discovery (like Front Desk or From the Desk of Zoe Washington)

Hi writer friends! I'm officially reopening to queries!
I'm especially excited about ✨children's books✨: author/illustrators, nature/STEM/nonfiction, graphic novels, and refreshing, original MG and YA.

I'm open to queries again!!! Here's what I'm really wanting to see in my box right now...
#MSWL 1/?
-unique picture books by diverse authors
-joyful stories about the lives of marginalized creators in PB and MG
-MG & YA contemporary stories as graphic novels or novels-in-verse
Literary Agent
… deep MG with a strong message; sweeping YA fantasy; women’s fiction with characters I’d kill for; banter-filled contemporary romance; and meaningful and well-written nonfiction for any age. They’ll fill in some gaps on my list! #MSWL

Last year was GREAT for @SkylarkLit & I am looking forward to this year being even better! I’m excited to discover more fantastic new books & authors & help them find fabulous publishing homes! So, lovely writers - send me your manuscripts & let’s get this party started! 🤗🎉🥂I am especially keen to find YA mysteries & love stories, anything with an unreliable narrator & voicey MG characters who know their own minds! 🤗 I love historical & also contemporary adventures with a twist! Glorious writing is top of my wishlist - ALWAYS! #MSWL

For the new year, in addition to my forever #MSWL on the ArtHouse page, in 2023, I’m looking for some specifics!!:
- picture book nonfiction
- narrative nonfiction/memoirs (think MAID)
- middle grade National Treasure with non-founding father artifacts
- adult Black romance

Would love an MG or YA book whose theme/lesson is "sometimes your family sucks and you don't have to put them first actually." #mswl
I get a lot of "family is the most important thing" books which is sweet and all but... does not match my experience or that of many of my friends

My 11yo daughter sent four anonymous holiday candy grams in her class just to, in her words, "cause chaos." And per her report, by the time she left school the kids in her grade had all devolved into shouting and accusing one another. I've never been more proud.This sounds like a beautifully chaotic MG novel (or if it’s in high school and these are Valentine grams ❤️ YA) #MSWL

Would love to see a YA "Bad Sisters" or a Sarah Dessen-type novel with BIPOC main characters. Would also love an MG with some badass main characters. How about a PB with a crazy, funny twist at the end? #MSWL

💜WRITERS💜 No need to wait until the new year--I'm open to queries and would love to see your work. YA/MG/PB fiction and NF. Make me laugh, make me swoon, make me cry. BIPOC, LGBTQ+, disabled and other underrepresented creators please query! #MSWL here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/shar…

Looking for #MG where the narrator every once in awhile casually addresses the reader (i.e. "You know how sometimes..." or "Have you ever had a stone stuck in your shoe?"), but NOT in a "This is what happened to me last summer & I'm going to tell you about it" type way. Thoughts?You know, #MSWL for when I reopen.

"I love a unique atmosphere/strong sense of place in books across the board, whether that be picture books, middle grade, or adult fiction."
