I'm reading queries and actively acquiring! Happy #MSWL Day = I'm hungry for a 100,000 word romantic comedy that makes me giggle and laugh. Something like RED, WHITE AND ROYAL BLUE by @casey_mcquiston = manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/sara…

If you write inspirational romantic suspense that is fast paced, exciting and full of danger, I'd love to see it for Love Inspired Suspense. #ownvoices authors welcome and encouraged. Check out guidelines here: harlequin.submittable.com/submit/29572/l…

#MSWL

Also actively seeking Muslim stories, both contemporary and SFF. In particular, science fiction, as I'd love to see stories of POC we don't normally get to see having adventures in the future. Also goes for SF starring indigenous characters. #MSWL

Our publisher @stacylwhitman tweeted her #MSWL in this thread: twitter.com/stacylwhitman/…

Yes please. I worked for 2 years at a large metropolitan newspaper (as both a reporter and copy editor), so I'd love something with the feel and energy of the newsroom, but in a high school or jr high newspaper (since I only do kidlit). Fic or nonfic. #MSWL

Again, the Tu Books submission guidelines are at leeandlow.com/writers-illust…. Check those for full information. Also please take a look at our list--what we've published, what we've announced to be coming down the pipeline--for a better idea of my tastes. #MSWL

I have always, ALWAYS wanted a book on this subject. Fiction, nonfiction, I'm not picky. #mswl

And as far as diversity goes, I am particularly seeking new authors of color and indigenous authors. #MSWL

We are still actively seeking contemporary Native American narratives for MG & YA, novel and graphic novel. I'd also love more books about black girls/by black women.

I am particularly looking for MG and young YA that has strong appeal for middle school/junior high students in the school/library market. Literary quality with strong commercial hook to get kids reading. #MSWL

So, for example, @ggmccall's SUMMER OF THE MARIPOSAS is a retelling of THE ODYSSEY abt 5 Mexican American girls on a road trip with a dead guy (Weekend at Bernie's meets Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants)--more like that, please! #MSWL

Exception: I am starting to seek MG & YA nonfiction graphic novels with specific appeal to the school and library market #MSWL

I love SFF with strong curricular connections that would appeal to teachers/librarians incorporating them into curriculum/pairing with classics

Just realized it's #MSWL day. I've tweeted occasional MSWLs whenever they've come up, so feel free to search my history, but here's the gist of what I'm looking for:

All books must star IPOC
I only publish MG and YA fiction & graphic novels (see exceptions below)

I'm also always interested in deep dives into particular subjects. Think quirky like Mary Roach or food-related like Mark Kurlansky. #mswl

The other day I stumbled upon DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder) Twitter, and I would LOVE to see manuscripts and short story collections (fiction and nonfic) from writers with DID. #MSWL (No need to wait until I reopen to queries on this one, but I only rep kidlit.)

MG or YA about a kid with an unusual hobby or interest. #MSWL

What about a YA novel involving enmeshment and helicopter parenting? The good and the bad. #MSWL

I updated my #MSWL page today! Check it out: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/carr…

Dark suspense is my literary happy place. I'd love to find an Adult Thriller series in the vein of the @JefferyDeaver Lincoln Rhyme series or the Thomas Harris Hannibal series. # TickTock #MSWL

And... I know this is impossible but hear me out! Where’s the next Terry Pratchett, especially one writing for teens? #mswl

In the mood for a hopeful, uplifting middle grade that will make me cry my eyes out. #mswl
