I’ve opened to picture books. I’ve missed my PB community. (Go easy on me.)

I’ll be prioritizing authors and/or illustrators from marginalized communities, books with side-splitting humor, and fascinating nonfiction (that’s not a bio).

“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

“Picture Books: stories with literary sensibilities, nonfiction (not biographies) the Wheel of the Year, cultural traditions/folklore/history.” @agentvicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation

MG nonfiction that uses humor and playful formats to bring readers to both evergreen & rapidly evolving topics; in particular, I'd love to learn about civics, media literacy, mental health, body positivity, and food in fresh ways

in fiction and nonfiction, I particularly want to see more BIPOC, disabled, LGBT+ authors (though please don't feel pressured to disclose anything you're not comfortable with)
more indigenous/non-Western culture, mythology, and tropes

I really, really want to see more nonfiction!

I still love and rep kidlit! Currently I'm hoping to see more NF in the teen and tween space. I'm always interested in the well researched historical period type project, but am also hoping to see new formats and takes on trade NF! #MSWL

#GN horror, contemporary, HF, retelling, mythology
#CB/early readers anything goes for fiction. For NF STEM, Bios of little know historical figures

I love books that show all the brilliant colors of my community 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ and underrepresented voices

topics: 🧠🔮📺🌿🍟

“I want to see more books across genres about women in science/biology fields. Adult fiction, graphic novels, and nonfiction. Send me your titles.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

YES! Give me fiction and nonfiction with accurate multicultural portrayals of history. #MSWL

“A nonfiction submission on social mobility would make my day, particularly if examined through intersectional feminist lenses.” @ceciliaclyra #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

WRITERS! I'm excited to see what the new year will bring to my inbox. If you write YA/MG/PB/NF, please check out my #MSWL to see if we might be a good fit. (a little Elmo energy because I'm enjoying Elmo/Rocco a little bit too much) bit.ly/smaurermswl

I like sarcasm and humor. I like nonfiction narratives that read like fiction. I like books that deal with current issues, but that teach you the history of a thing. Have you read IMMUNE by Phillipp Dettmer? Fascinating!

In nonfiction, when in doubt, try me. #MSWL

This year, I'm focusing on growing my #nonfiction list. I'd love to work on popular science, social science, and food books. Voicey writing. Think Mary Roach, Adam Grant. Climate, space, the ocean, biology. Mental health, personality science. Cookbooks! Chemistry of cooking #MSWL

Narrative nonfiction with roots in journalism or science that follows personal stories revealing curiosities still to be discovered in the world like Fox & I by Catherine Raven or issues that need broader attention like Nomadland by Jessica Bruder #mswl #nonfiction
