And when it comes to YA, I love just about everything.

But I'm really eager to find more diverse SFF novels and LGBTQ+ stories... books that make marginalized teens feel SEEN, not just in the now, but in far flung futures and lushly imagined fantasy worlds. #MSWL

I also really want to find more accessible, devour-able sci-fi and fantasy novels.

Some of my favorites include @KatWithSword @fran_wilde and @ChuckWendig.

@SChakrabs wrote my favorite SFF novel of 2017. #MSWL

When it comes to memoir and essays, I want to laugh, cry, and think about life.

Writers who did that to me last year? @readandbreathe @ilanaslightly @oureric @nicole_soojung @MorganJerkins @brandonlgtaylor.

If you write like them, please say hello. #MSWL

I am so pleased to ring in 2018 with some awesome #MSWL news. @KariTrogen has joined #TeamNat! And here's a hint of what the research for editing looked like.

Hey writer friends!

I open up to queries next week! This is what I'm looking for in 2018.

YA! SFF! Non-fiction! Cookbooks! Literary novels! Let's make some books together. bit.ly/2DS63il #MSWL

MSWL for 2018: AKA What I'd Like to See in my Agent Inbox for 2018 scribblesandwanderlust.wordpress.com/2018/01/01/msw… #mswl

2018 #MSWL 👀

Smart, literary YA (contemporary or historical +)
Magical, heartfelt MG
Picture books with a S&L hook
#ownvoices!!!!

I'm dying for: psychological thrillers, dark fantasy, "voicy" comp. romance, cool/new worlds in sci-fi & fantasy, amateur sleuths, cozies, & a mystery or thriller that keeps me guessing. #MSWL #adult #YA Send query & 1st 5 pages to: querylynnette (at) theseymouragency (dot) com.

I'm seeking:
Adult: fantasy, thriller, sci-fi, contemporary romance, rom. com., & mystery.
YA: fantasy, sci-fi, horror, contemporary, thriller, & mystery. I love dark & twisty, light & funny, & stories with or without romance. querylynnette (at) theseymouragency (dot) com #MSWL

It's 2018, and I reopen to queries TOMORROW! Curious to see what I'm looking for? Take a look at my Pinterest #MSWL. #amquerying #querytip pinterest.com/kaitlynjohnson…

High-concept romance that sparks an intense emotional response with big issues that transcend normal romance #MSWL

Anyway, bring on the stories about middle-aged women having adventures. #mswl

And now the time-honored tradition of marathoning #TwilightZone on Syfy… and the yearly reminder that god how I want a YA horror a la twilight zone. #MSWL

And for the wild card: hipster noir! #mswl

If you can describe your novel as having a commercial premise with a literary execution, send it my way. #mswl

I love fantasy, but please nothing Tolkien-esque. SorryNotSorry, but I’m not a fan. #mswl

I love near-future sci-fi like Ex Machina and Looper. #mswl

I love horror, but not overly-supernatural. I prefer reality-based scares. #mswl

Also, food. Anything that deals with food in a really fun (maybe magical) way. #mswl

Anything set in the arts/theater (drama/dance/symphony/opera) will bring my inner drama club kid such joy. #mswl
