A #MSWL mini thread since I'm just dipping a toe into the querying world. š§µI love all fiction, with a soft spot for magical realism (think 100 YEARS, of course!). Lit fic, spec fic, and sci-fi are also high on my list. Fantasy like BLACK LEOPARD. Psych fiction that slowly unravels, like RED PILL. And not always, but sometimes, a great love story.

Yāall know the drill! I want a character driven coming-of-age contemporary YA centered around a queer BIPOC girl that feels like Sour by Olivia Rodrigo. #mswlYou know what would be really cool? A love story with a non-linear timeline where the further you advance through the story, the more you start to question if itās a romance or a thriller. #mswl

I wonāt be open to queries til January, but in 2022, Iād love a genre book, YA or adult, that deals with reproductive healthābirth control, abortion, infertility, PCOS, just the tough stuff that sometimes comes with an AFAB bodyāwithout it being the bookās central conflict #mswl

thinking of a romcom where dev patel's a snobby city journalist, and lana condor's a romance novellist who also writes thrillers under a different pen name. he puts the romance novel on his "worst of" list and the thriller under "best", not knowing they're by the same personā pic.twitter.com/Yq99CI5fTII want this romcom so much. #mswl

Iām still angry about this. There are only nine illustrations in this book and one of them is of these goblins. There must have been so many eyes on this image and itās shocking no one scrutinised it. twitter.com/langtonbecca/sā¦I want to counteract this - I would LOVE to find a great contemporary Jewish story for MG or YA. Anything that isn't historical! I want Jewish rom-com or a Jewish fantasy and just Jewish joy in whatever forms #MSWL

I have such a very specific #mswl request that I might just IP it.
The gist:
-Poly romance
-Black love/Black characters (w/o touching on racismā¦.I knowā¦)
-HBCU setting
-Vibes of āFearlessā (TV), āJump then Fallā (TV), āToday was a Fairytaleā (TV)
