Surprise me! Bring me twists and new tropes and unique takes on classic stories. Play with structure, whether it's verse or epistolary or a story in documents. Tell me something new about the world. #MSWL

Bring me strong character relationships and lush world-building. I want adventure and multi-level plots and tension that keeps me on the edge of my seat. Leave me wishing I was still wrapped up in the pages when I’m finished! #MSWL

I need some escapism this year, and I found a lot of it in romance, fantasy, and intriguing horror novels in 2022. I’d love to see more of that in my inbox! #MSWL

I always ask for big emotions in MSs, and right now, I especially want joy. You can make it serious, but I want moments of levity too. Bring me laugh-out-loud humor, swoonworthy romance, delightful friendships, and lots of wonder. #MSWL

… deep MG with a strong message; sweeping YA fantasy; women’s fiction with characters I’d kill for; banter-filled contemporary romance; and meaningful and well-written nonfiction for any age. They’ll fill in some gaps on my list! #MSWL

Happy 2023! I can’t wait to dive back into queries now that the CMA inbox has officially reopened!

Everything on my MSWL, the CMA website, and my old tweets still stand. But as a quick update, this year I’m especially looking for… #MSWL

#MSWL something like the Goonies for the YA market. (Yes, I am watching it as we speak).

Happy New Year! As some of you noticed, I've reopened to queries. Here's a collection of all of my former #MSWL Tweets. Still actively looking for these! mswishlist.com/agent/SWekstein

New year, new website! You can find all the info on agenting things, a detailed #MSWL, etc. at ismitahussain.com. #amquerying folks, check out that Manuscript Wishlist page :)

#mswl I would like books set in snowy places. Give me your Alaskan and Siberian landscapes. Set books in Canada. And give me the Arctic and Antarctic. Please!!!!

Want to see what I'm really excited to find in my 2023 inbox? My new #MSWL is live! Don't forget...I won't be open to submissions until January 9th🔥

I am especially keen to find YA mysteries & love stories, anything with an unreliable narrator & voicey MG characters who know their own minds! 🤗 I love historical & also contemporary adventures with a twist! Glorious writing is top of my wishlist - ALWAYS! #MSWL

Tomorrow i will do an #MSWL ahead of reopening to queries.

Upfront, i am going to be only looking for YAs for a while since my list needs are specific at the moment.

This has been a heavy week for the passing of influential people, and certainly retrospectives on either Barbara Walters' or Vivienne Westwood's work are at the top of my 2023 #MSWL. Their accomplishments should be honoured, critiqued, and memorialized.

#MSWL for 2023: AKA what I'd like to see in my agent inbox scribblesandwanderlust.com/2022/12/30/msw…

For the new year, in addition to my forever #MSWL on the ArtHouse page, in 2023, I’m looking for some specifics!!:
- picture book nonfiction
- narrative nonfiction/memoirs (think MAID)
- middle grade National Treasure with non-founding father artifacts
- adult Black romance

Just finished "Some Kind of Hate" by @SarahDarerLitt and...wow...I'm blown away. This needs to be required reading in every high school to start conversations that will hopefully tamp down the hate and divisiveness we are experiencing. #Antisemitism @ccsdschools #MSWL

I know MOST about this from a US perspective, but open to any nationality or court/prison system. Really just want to talk about, think about, and learn about abolition. #mswl

Still looking for creators writing abolitionist works - been thinking a lot about what I'd like to represent in the adult and children's nonfiction space, and talking about inadequacies of our court and prison systems is very important to me as a human #mswl

With 2023 on the horizon, I’m planning out threads to write in the coming weeks. So, #WritingCommunity, what questions do you want addressed? What are your biggest concerns and frustrations? What do you most need help with? #amquerying #amwriting #MSWL
