Nonfiction (especially self-help or cultural commentary) from qualified sources. I want books that help people discover issues they didn't know about or see a familiar problem in a new way. Fresh perspectives are not only welcomed but encouraged! #MSWL

Upmarket women's fiction that explores issues we tend to minimize or ignore as a society. #MSWL

I’d love to see more revenge stories (specifically in the thriller category). It could be a scorned lover, a group of friends avenging someone's death, a sister story, etc. If your character is in their villain era, send it my way! #MSWL

I've been loving horror that has a lighter writing style to contrast the darkness of the story itself. If you have humor in your horror, I'd love to take a look! #MSWL

If you’re a journalist with a story to tell, whether you’re exposing unjust systems in America or shining light on an unsolved crime, I want to bring attention to issues and people *not* always in the spotlight. #MSWL

I'm a major softie, so please send me your sweet rom coms! I want emotional intelligence, tender ~steamy scenes~, and genuinely funny dialogue. #MSWL

"Send me your illustrated picture books with literary sensibilities. I'm looking for whimsical stories, fascinating nonfiction, and stunning art."

Would love to see more psychological horror in my query inbox—especially anything with a remote location (“abandoned” anything is a major selling point for me!), a haunted house (house as character!), and/or a final girl. #MSWL

✨ New Year, New #MSWL Thread ✨

I'll continue adding to this throughout the year (especially as I'm looking for different/new things), but for now, these are the kinds of projects I'd most like to see in my inbox!

#mswl - would love something with vibes like the bear on hulu ............. i have been watching it a lot lol

Welcome to 2023 everyone

Pleased to announce my official #MSWL is live and available. For details on what I’ll be looking for please refer to this page⬇️

This vibe is a definite #mswl

It gives Maleficent/ Charlize Theron in Snow White and the Huntsman vibes and I am here for them. Give me a fantasy from the POV of an evil queen where the beautiful princess is just annoying and does not win the hearts of the people/ love interest.

Agents!! I would love to kick off 2023 by acquiring some YA high fantasy— if you have any, please send it my way!! #MSWL

Specific nonfiction topics I’d love to read about this year: music journalism, depression, chronic illness, occult topics beyond tarot and astrology, environmentalism, smart pop culture criticism. #MSWL

I’m always excited to see strong nonfiction proposals in my inbox. Pop culture, environmental science, history, occult, and lifestyle. Illustrated projects. Essays written by modern journalists. #MSWL

Illustrated picture books by individual author/illustrators. My picture book preference leans heavily on the “literary” side of storytelling and prose. Moving topics, poetic language, visually and emotionally striking protagonists, unique art style. #MSWL
