#MSWL 👏🏻

Are there any pbs not just on how to say no...but on how to hear no and be okay with it and accept rejection gracefully? Because if not then #mswl

I'd love to see in my queries:

- Atmospheric, woodsy, lush horror like THE YEAR OF THE WITCHING (YA, A)
- Domestic/psychological thrillers by BIPOC authors (A)
- Scavenger hunts (MG, YA, A)
- Eerie spec fic in isolated settings (CATHERINE HOUSE, THE WATER CURE)

#MSWL

In YA SFF: I want projects like Attack The Block (2011) and Vampires Vs. The Bronx (2020). #mswl

I’ve been thinking about what is on my current 2021 wishlist for submissions. Here’s what I came up with. If you’ve got anything you think fits the bill, please do send it over. Also worth saying this list is by no means exhaustive; I’m just looking for great genre stories! #MSWL

I just finished _Sal and Gabi Break the Universe_ and now I’m reading _ Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky_ and WOW @rickriordan’s @DisneyHyperion imprint is KILLING IT.

Send me books like these! I want to read them! #mswl

“A YA or MG novel comping #DeadbyDaylight that is still totally character-driven and emotional.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

This is a definite #mswl

It's come to my query-reading attention that I am a total sucker for #secretsocieties. Send me all your mysterious, secret organization stories, folks. #MG #YA #MSWL

Next time someone asks for my #mswl, I’m just going to post this. (Feel free to swap out spies and Scotland, if you wish)

I’d love some middle grade sci-fi too! #MSWL

I would LOVE a queer adult WF or genre work that could be compared to Michaela Coel’s Chewing Gum #MSWL

Hello, yes, agents if you rep #horror with messy queer characters please send me those manuscripts #mswl

Thank youuuu. I’m a messy queer fuck up, and those are the people and stories I’m interested and want to champion. #mswl

I’m LIVE on #MSWL!! Check out my way-too-long description of the kinds of projects I’m interested in and send me queries! Can’t wait to see what all you lovely writers and illustrators are working on 🌝 #amquerying #amagenting manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/alic…

Echoing this, as I believe I've echoed before: Joanna Newsom comps, please! If I could rep a manuscript that feels like "Clam, Crab, Cockle, Cowrie"... #MSWL

Friendly reminder to the Universe that I am always looking for books that feel conjured from the same magic source as this album: #MSWL

The avalanche explains everything...except the missing eyes, tongue, and clothing of the dead...

This is why my #MSWL asks for stories that use real historical happenings as a basis for supernatural terror (i.e. Alma Katsu's The Hunger & The Deep and the TV series The Terror)!

My submissions are now reopen – #mswl below. Could be v. crudely summarised as: minoritized voices & stories/ creepy/ funny/ weird/ playful/ radical/ internationalist/ commercial middle-grade/ bold YA/ non-white genre fic/ bold adult non-fic/ anything else you like. Send away!

Dear agents,

Just want to put out the call again that I'd love to see more fantasy/sci-fi middle grade submissions in my inbox! I have a TON of space for mg on my list right now, so [*insert grabby hands here*]!! #MSWL
