I’m always curious for more historical fiction and narrative nonfiction from non-white/non-Eurocentric perspectives about events or individuals that deserve to be more widely talked about #mswl

If you are looking to submit your manuscript in 2023, do consider sending it my way! I'm looking for new clients writing literary, upmarket, and bookclub fiction - historical and contemporary - as well as select narrative non-fiction 📚 #MSWishlist #MSWL madeleinemilburn.co.uk/agents/olivia-…

In non-fiction, if you have a strong platform or the credentials to support your writing, I am open to most ideas. A strong narrative voice that will draw me is especially important.

ok last non-fiction #mswl for now: increasingly i am made aware of how deeply capitalism influences and infiltrates our lives, in big and small ways. i would love to keep exploring that and hearing about other ways we could imagine our lives, please!

non-fiction #mswl continued:
-topics within mental health and how the societies we live in affect it 👀

-biographies of women from history, whether ones who were ignored/forgotten or maybe a revised look at a known figure!!! esp written by fellow women!

ok, some non-fiction #mswl!

truth is, i'm a nerd on a futile quest to learn everything, ever, but some topics/areas i often gravitate towards:
-pop culture & what it says about us/the times we're living in

-deep dives into cultural history of <topic/thing>

i'm also over on #mswl and i've had a great time putting together my profile! please take a look here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/hana…

the tl:dr of the above bio? i want fun, exciting commercial & genre fiction and accessible well-researched non-fiction, specifically from marginalized creators!

(you should still read the bio though, please 😅)

Nonfiction (especially self-help or cultural commentary) from qualified sources. I want books that help people discover issues they didn't know about or see a familiar problem in a new way. Fresh perspectives are not only welcomed but encouraged! #MSWL

Specific nonfiction topics I’d love to read about this year: music journalism, depression, chronic illness, occult topics beyond tarot and astrology, environmentalism, smart pop culture criticism. #MSWL

I’m always excited to see strong nonfiction proposals in my inbox. Pop culture, environmental science, history, occult, and lifestyle. Illustrated projects. Essays written by modern journalists. #MSWL

Illustrated graphic novels and graphic nonfiction by individual author/illustrators. MG, YA, Adult. The art needs to cleverly utilize the comics storytelling format. I’m not looking at script-only submissions at the moment. #MSWL

this is maybe a little specific but i'd really love to find some historical fiction or nonfiction about the AIDS epidemic and the activism / community care / political radicalism that organized around it/as a result of it #mswl

I am passionate about representing under or misrepresented voices and stories that contribute to a larger cultural conversation whether explicitly (e.g., a nonfiction title on social justice) or subtly (a comedy of manners about a mixed-raced Latinx family)…

Examples of topics in NF: tipping culture; hysteria (diseases historically associated with women); spirituality in the age of atheism; occupational segregation; climate change; public trust; exploration between personal desensitization and wealth.

The human brain is an endless source of fascination. I am hungry for nonfiction proposals with a neuroscience bent, particularly titles exploring the nexus between neuroscience and other fields, e.g., neuropsychology, neurosociology, neuropharmacology, neuronutrition, etc.

My taste in nonfiction is eclectic: no title is too serious or too accessible. I am hungry for original, expert-driven argumentative nonfiction that offers a clear paradigm shift to the reader (e.g., reader will pick up the book thinking X and will leave the book thinking Y).

NONFICTION: I am open to most categories, across the spectrum, including psychology, history, current affairs, science, politics, narrative journalism, nature and the environment, wellness, spirituality, business and economics, mathematics, parenting, lifestyle, and pop culture.
