I will be reopening to queries on Monday, July 29th. Polish those pitches! In the meantime, I'll be tweeting some updates on what I am (and am not) looking for. #askagent #querytipEven though #PrideMonth is over, a reminder that I am ALWAYS looking for books with queer representation, especially #ownvoices. Please send me those manuscripts when I reopen on the 29th! #mswl

ULTIMATE #MSWL please someone give me an #ownvoices #Hmong #YA novel about immigration and the #SecretWar. We need this story, especially for teens. No more hidden history.

Hey #MSWL: Am seeking a great love story with dimension, humor, and a strong commercial hook. Think ONE DAY or THE LIGHT WE LOST, but not necessarily a weepy. I am esp eager to read #ownvoices stories or underrepresented narratives in this space.
Literary Agent
I’m looking for a contemporary romance (single title length) or a rom-com that’s #ownvoices, #diverse, #poc, and/or #lgbtq. #mswl #amquerying #writingcommunity

#MSWL: These are true heroes and we need to hear their stories. #ownvoices

#MSWL contemp w/ #ownvoices rep for mental illness.
I don’t want a pretty glittering version of it bc lets be real mental illness sucks a big back of dicks.
Give me the thoughts none of us voice that make us feel like the world is going to swallow us whole.
&then give me hope.

I enjoyed TSIAAS, but I kept being distracted by calculating their routes & travel times around NYC. “She could *maybe* get there in half an hour if she takes the B to the A & all the trains arrive just right...”FYI, if it’s legally possible, I would 100% publish an #ownvoices YA novel about a teenage girl or boy in the Motown star system. Signed, someone who read DREAMGIRL: MY LIFE AS A SUPREME in high school & *loved* it. #mswl
