#mswl ??? 😂

PLEASE #MSWL

I would love to see this #mswl

Does anyone have recommendations for a cozy fantasy mystery? Also very open to agented YA submissions in that genre!

Really interested in paranormal sci-fi all of a sudden 😂
#mswl

I’ll be popping in/out of #PitDark today. I’d love to find some atmospheric horror/dark psychological thrillers so if you think we might be a fit pls query too! If I fave your #pitdark pitch pls send query and 1st 5 ch as word doc att to hilaryquery @ ktliterary dot com. #MSWL

#MSWL Remember those YA romantic dystopian books from 10-15 years ago? LEGEND, SHATTER ME - I even count HUNGER GAMES here. I'd LOVE to see some new, fresh romantic dystopian!

(No plague-based books or books where the world is dystopian because it's misogynist, though, please.)

For Marisa, her favorite tropes in romance are the ones that make the readers second-guess themselves, starting off with stronger emotions only to find themselves falling in love with the LI, at the same rate the MC does!

I'm actually hoping to open just a little early, before June if possible. It's been WAY too long and I'm very excited to see your projects. So please stay tuned--I may open again early next week, after the Memorial Day holiday!

In order to keep things moving along, get back to authors promptly, and hopefully remain open to submissions--I will be opening on the first day of each month for one week, moving forward. Catching up for three weeks and then opening again. Wash/rinse/repeat. 3/

I'm also looking for non-fiction projects in the areas of current events, true crime, science, history, narrative non-fiction, sports, politics, health & nutrition(I'd love a big brain book).2/

Folks, I am thrilled to announce that I am FINALLY opening to submissions again in June. I'm looking for my usual #MSWL but especially interested in seeing...
Dark and spicy romance
marginalized voices
Gothic
dark academia
horror
genre-mashups
fantasy 1/

#MSWL : I would love to represent a non-fiction book on the absolute epidemic of ghosting - why it’s happening & what it means for us all on an individual & societal level. If it’s already out there, please point me in the right direction because this subject is fascinating to me!

Writers, I'm excited to say I'm open to queries again! My #MSWL is mostly the same, but I'll post updates as I think of them!

#MSWL I’m also always on the look out for:
✨genre mixing projects!
✨gap area projects!

These are books that do fun things w/genre boundaries and/or hit "gap" areas of the market: voice-y lower MG, adventurous (or romantic) upper MG/lower YA, upper YA & New Adult.

#MSWL I’d love some fun, voice-y school dramas both MG and YA. Kids scheming things, kids getting away with things, kids having adventures on fieldtrips gone awry!

And I'm happy to look at projects with unusual formats like The Tapper Twins series.

#MSWL Looking for something that gives Jennifer A. Nielsen's THE FALSE PRINCE vibes, though this doesn’t have to be fantasy.

I'm more thinking of something with an interesting, tightly bounded setting, easy to read but emotionally charged prose, and a twist.

#MSWL I’d love to see some YA, NA, or Adult projects set on the set of a non-U.S. TV show/movie!

Probably not reality show based (unless the show has a an all BIPOC cast) so more that the set is just the setting w/the heart of the story elsewhere.

WRITERS! New #MSWL w/ a few changes. Still looking for Adult NF (lifestyle, parenting, sports, current events, etc) and YA/MG/PB, but expanding YA/MG to fantasy and still including dystopian/sci-fi/horror/contemporary. Make me laugh, make me sob! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/shari-maurer/

Calling nonfiction authors! I'm looking for history, military, politics, biographies, journalism, memoirs and science. #amquerying #amagenting #MSWL
