#MSWL if you have a story set in alternate Victorian/modern England that has elements of secret societies, magical realism, dark academia, or crime, please send it to me. England is preferable, but I'm open to other locations :)

“Nonfiction proposals with an intersectional feminist angle immediately catch my attention. A few issues I’d like to see examined: occupational segregation, equal pay, and emotional labor.” @ceciliaclyra #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

please spotify pic.twitter.com/u7TIZ0OeuyOooh I'd love this idea for a YA or adult romance #MSWL

And middle grade high fantasy too, especially featuring Queer or BIPOC main characters. #MSWL
Literary Agent
More high concept high fantasy in the YA space. I get a lot of plots that feel familiar and therefore unpitchable. I want something with a really strong hook. #MSWL

Anything that can comp to any TV show written by Mindy Kaling #MSWL

Character focused ensemble casts with uplifting, earnest, funny plot lines like Ted Lasso or Our Flag Means Death. #MSWL

An adult rom com set on a show similar to The Ultimatum, Love is Blind or The Circle. #MSWL

Hello! I'm still working my way through my queries and requested material, but I'm reopening to new queries on Sunday 5/1! So here's a little #MSWL thread, and of course all of my previous requests still stand: mswishlist.com/agent/SWeksteinHEARTSTOPPER gave me butterflies the whole way through, so I'd love to see something in this vein in YA. #MSWL

My mood has declared that spring is for historical fiction and I can’t argue with the mood.
Agents, come talk to me about all your book clubby historical fiction because I need to acquire some stories of badass women doing badass things, the season has spoken #MSWL

tbh ... a historical fiction intrigue novel that has the vibes and grit and tragedy of Brel's Dans Le Port D'Amsterdam ... I want it #mswl

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.
Literary Agent
*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
