It's #MSWL day. Topping my list is commercial women’s fiction--particularly #ownvoices contemporaries; mother/daughter, sisters, or best friends stories for women in their 30s or 40s. Romance isn't necessary though I do love romance.

Middle grade mysteries! Bonus points for #ownvoices. #MSWL

Happy #MSWL day! Just a blanket note that I'd love to see #ownvoices subs and POC authors for every wishlist item I post today--not just the ones I specify--and in my inbox in general.

#MSWL I’m always going to be in the mood for a literary/upmarket #ownvoices family saga. I want something deep, addresses the generational divide, and will make me cry my eyes out.

It's been around for a bit, but @pacylin ’s TEDx talk is still worth watching. And her point about windows and mirrors applies not just to kidlit but to all lit. youtube.com/watch?v=_wQ8wi… 1/2I’m open to a whole range of #ownvoices books, but I especially want to see more books featuring Asian and adoptee characters. I dream of finding a Vietnamese culinary journey one day. #MSWL 2/2
Literary Agent
As you know I've been on the hunt for more #ownvoices and #diversebooks in nonfiction & fiction in mystery, suspense, thriller, upmarket & literary, & women's fiction. #MSWL
Literary Agent
While #ownvoices and #diversebooks have caught on in YA, I'm still struggling to see it in adult and, frankly, that's what I want more of. #MSWL My target genres right now are: literary & upmarket fiction, mystery, suspense, thriller, & women's fiction.
Literary Agent
#MSWL call for more historical romance, especially diverse stories from #ownvoices authors! I adore Regencies and Scotsmen, but I'd also love to see some new time periods, new settings, and new voices. Bonus points if your characters make me laugh.

Watched the US gymnastics championships tonight (SIMONE 😍), and it reminded me how much I want a MG or YA (hs or college) sports book. Gymnastics. Swimming. Volleyball. Track. Cheerleading. Etc. As long as it's voicey and character driven, send it my way! #MSWLAnd if we're talking dream books, anyone remember Gotta Kick It Up! ? Give me the fresh, #ownvoices YA version of that. #MSWL
Literary Agent
In general, my #MSWL includes mystery, suspense, thriller, women's fiction, upmarket & literary fiction. I want more #ownvoices in all things and more #diversebooks #thursdaythoughts
Literary Agent
I'd love to play a part in diversifying travel writing, and am always open to projects from #ownvoices authors writing about travel and the outdoors. #MSWL
