It's time for another #MSWL, BookEnds book friends!

This time from @PinaRamona:

"I usually go for spec lit but I'm in the mood for psychological thrillers like YOU & GONE GIRL with more diverse characters."

"Crime fiction like Laura Lippman, Patricia Cornwell, & Lorna Barrett." @CurtisPSLA #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

And in general, I am open to all queries for Picture Book (non-rhyming preferred), MG, YA and NA! I am simply not the best fit for horror, sci-fi or high fantasy.

*YA/NA contemporary including royalty! Desperately looking for a book that gives me the same impression as the tv series The Royals
*YA magical realism with witches (think of The Secret Circle)
*YA/NA sweet romance with a feel of the Love, Rosie movie
*NA cozy mystery

*Picture books Nonfiction and informational, especially anything about people who changed the world but aren't as known for it as they should be
*Picture Books on Halloween (fiction)
*Young Adult Thrillers (anything with a Kara Thomas/Karen McManus feel)

Thérèse has opened the floodgates. I’ve braced myself on her behalf! Her wish list is below #mswl

Can I get Turning Red but make it adult literary? (I love the idea of immigrating with the cultural folk tale/magical realism element) #MSWL

Guidelines are the same as always, please send your lovely manuscripts along with a synopsis and your pitch email to submissions@hardmanswainson.com ✍️📬

And on the middle grade and YA side, I want funny, I want adventure, I want completely new, never-seen-before characters and settings, I want high-concept romances, lots of friendship and heart, just phenomenal stories and journeys all over🚀🌴

For adult, I would love to see some gorgeous sweeping historical fiction, something to make me laugh out loud, original, high-concept crime/thrillers and cosy crime, and those all-consuming love stories you just have to tell all your friends about💙

After two in-person book fairs, a work trip to Milan, and several incredibly exciting deals, tba, for both children's and adult fiction (✨), and three equally exciting submissions planned for this week (👀), I am very excited to be re-opening my submissions!

☝️🏼one week until i close to queries for who knows how long! get your MG or YA query in before May 2! my current #mswl is below and there's more info at bethphelan.com/submissions 🫶🏼
