I’d LOVE to connect/catch up with agents and other publishing folks, especially assistants and editors, so please shoot me an email/DM and we can set something up!

My wishlist in a nutshell: diaspora, liminal spaces, counterintuitive, memoir w/ reportage, food, social horror, mythology, light speculative, NYC stories, historical, contemporary, multigenerational. And always, always prioritizing intersectional work from marginalized writers.

Pub Lunch official ✨ I’m beyond thrilled to be on Team Ballantine at @penguinrandom, acquiring commercial and upmarket fiction and nonfiction! A mini 🧵:

In the meantime, check out my wishlist at triadaus.com, & on the MSWL website, here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/laur…!

You can also search my @ + #mswl, and see some specific wishlist items. Here are a few to get you started...

“I’d love to see a voicey spin doctor narrative in adult fiction. Think the energy of the Good Wife's Eli Gold.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Querying authors, we're looking for gift books, #devotionals and #Bible studies (adult and teen girls) by authors with a strong platform. No DMs. See submission guidelines here: rachellegardner.com/submissions #MSWL #InspyBooks #WritingCommunity #amagenting #amwriting

#mswl plz

Still looking for more women's fic like this! #amquerying writers #mswl

Re: period & puberty discourse from #TurningRed, I'm actively looking for middle grade novels that addresses these topics! Give me all the earnest (slightly cringe but still funny) coming of age MGs that grapple with these 'taboo' issues or just include them! #amquerying #mswl

“Stories featuring morally ambiguous protagonists! Give me your liars, your thieves. Your unlikeable peeps! I do NOT like reading about perpetually happy characters who spend their lives being good and moral (snooze).” @ceciliaclyra #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Mountains, beaches, islands, remote continental villages, fancy hotels, adventure holidays, darkly glamorous mansions, secluded retreats, river cruises, penthouse apartments in glittering cities... take me away, but make it murder-y! #MSWL

The sun has arrived, and covid has finally come to the Deechstreet household. I'm in the mood for escapist suspense that will make me forget I'm stuck inside for the foreseeable... if you've written one, I'd love to read it! #MSWL

Querying authors, we're looking for NON-FICTION books that grapple with racial issues, #LGBTQ+ issues and all social issues. No DMs. See submission guidelines here: rachellegardner.com/submissions #MSWL #InspyBooks #WritingCommunity #progressive #nonfiction

#MSWL

I can’t think of one but I WANT one #MSWL
