.@helloomabel said tonight that shanties sort of fit my vibe, and I was thrilled.Listen, as a kid I read a lot of books about girls-dressing-as-boys-to-Go-To-Sea, and as a teenager I listened to a lot of Decemberists, so this shanty moment is MY TIME.
Iβve had a new sea shanty playlist going nonstop this week, so just throwing out a reminder that I am here for stories of seafaring adventures, and all the relationships / motivations / dynamics / experiences aboard. #mswl

Kim - OPEN to queries! @kim_lindman
that sweet sweet combo of literary and crime pic.twitter.com/oGStsPg7asI'm very close to closing to fiction queries, but in the meantime, please send your literary crime novels #MSWL
Literary Agent
-- ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING -- Love me a ~quirky~ murder mystery that's funny and heartfelt. I'd love to see this across age groups.
Literary Agent
-- TURNING RED -- Give me all the coming of age middle grade novels and graphic novels! The more embarrassing, funny, relatable, the better.
Literary Agent
-- SELLING SUNSET -- I wonder if someone out there has written a thriller/horror about glamorous realtors meeting untimely ends or getting caught up with solving a murderπ€
Literary Agent
-- THE GREAT NORTH -- I'd love to see a novel or book club adult fic about characters out in Alaska or similarly remote landscape. This one I'm genre agnostic on, I'll take humor, horror, thriller, romance, across all age groups (nothing younger than MG).
Literary Agent
-- BRIDGERTON Season 2 -- If every romance I read had the scorching chemistry of Kanthony, I'd die happy. Send me all your quippy, enemies to lovers romance, though not in a historical/regency setting.
Literary Agent
-- OUR FLAG MEANS DEATH -- I'd love a queer take on pirates in the adult upmarket/book club space, in the vein of OUTLAWED but out at sea. I'd also be interested in this for YA or MG graphic novel!

For #amquerying writers here's a quick #MSWL update: I've been consuming a lot of new shows lately that are exploring concepts that I'd love to see more in my queries!-- RANKING OF KINGS -- I'd love to see a middle grade novel (graphic or prose) that explores a kid born into royalty/monarchy that doesn't fit the bill for what a ruler should be or some other setting!

New addition to my #MSWL: recovered history on geniuses and their pranks. The "unsuspecting rival" was Raphael! π

Also still desperate for that middle-grade graphic novel about a Jewish summer camp! Just FYI! #mswl

Agents, I am out of the office until Tuesday and would really love to come back to some LGBTQIA+ submissions in my inbox. #mswl
Literary Agent
I need people to know I have both opened back up to queries and also opened back up to my slut phase.
So please if you write college age contemporary stories or new adult fantasy thatβs filled with smut, please send it to me, your neighborhood book bimbo and hoe
