I am looking for thrillers and crime fiction of all types; book club fiction that moves me and makes me think; great historical fiction (including novels featuring fantasy/mythology). In non-fiction, books which work on an emotional level and let me in on the conversation. #mswl

Hello, 2021, and hello to writers seeking representation this year. Happy New Year! Here's what I'm looking for...a new year, a new #mswl thread...

Hello, everyone: I did a #mswl tweet at the start of this year, and it's all still true. I'm particularly excited to find YA thrillers and mysteries, and middle grade anything: series, contemporary, fantasy, etc.

I feel it warrants mentioning, since my partner and I are doing a West Wing re-watch and accompanying @WestWingWeekly listen, that I am a MASSIVE fan of Aaron Sorkin’s work. Do you write like him? If you do, I want to read it, regardless of what your project is. #MSWL

In an author call today I found myself saying “girls need strong representations of female villains, too.” Smart, cunning, complex girl (or non-binary) villains, anyone? #mswl (when I’m open again next month).
