Well looks like I don’t have to watch #TheMagicians now. Someone send me a comparable book that’s queer and doesn’t bury the gays #MSWL

Still getting the occasional DM asking if I'm open to queries... and I am! :-D

Here's what I'm looking for:

Most genres of YA.
Genre blending literary fiction.
Accessible sci-fi and fantasy.
Memoir and essay collections.
Cookbooks.
You?

Query me! ericsmithrocks.com/mswl #MSWL

Sneak peak of my Research of Writing in YA/MG Fiction webinar. (When I say I’m looking for manuscripts that’ll teach me stuff, I’m on this level #MSWL)

Happening on Thursday night! Join me: dakotas.scbwi.org/events/using-r…

This is more of Manuscript Do Not Wishlist, but I'd really like to stop seeing such dark MG and YA in my inbox. Could use some light hearted and happy ending books coming my way. #MSWL

"Domestic Suspense like ALL IS NOT FORGOTTEN and THE PERFECT NANNY." @carlywatters #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

They’re popping up in my query inbox so time for this gentle, gentle reminder: no vampires plz. #MSWL #antiMSWL

Marie Laveau’s story #mswl

uuuuuuuuuhhhhhh major #mswl

I have recently fallen into the black hole of Wedding Shaming, and holy hell I want this book so bad. #MSWL

#mswl this kind of shenanigans in a book

#mswl for spring 2019! 🌸

*Contemp Fantasy in MG, YA, Adult

*Character driven SF in MG & Adult

*Female MC thrillers & suspense

*Jewish and LatinX folklore

*YA Contemp with a BIG hook

For romance, my current #MSWL is Romantic Suspense; Amish or Inspirational; Feminist AF contemporary romance; and #OwnVoices love stories. <3

I’d love to get in more Women’s/General fiction! Here’s my current #MSWL: Multicultural stories; Women in STEM; High-concept historical; Millennial characters/themes; or Queer fiction. Can be a combination of any of the above.

#MSWL A #YA Comedy where a Being 👽 from another planet tries to assimilate as a human teenager.

Think Third Rock from the Sun meets Strange Planet by @nathanwpyle meets Simon and the Homo Sapien Agenda by @beckyalbertalli

These are the books I love across MG (especially!) and also YA. #MSWL

"Diverse, geeky YA love stories. In love with a rival at a video game tournament?" @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

#mswl (nonfic or romance) after I open to queries again on June 1!

As a huge astronomy buff myself, and in lieu of the first image of a black hole being released, I would love to get some more #YA and #MG submissions with characters who have a passion for fields in STEM. THE LAST TIME WE SAY GOODBYE is a perfect example of this #MSWL #amagenting

LRT: talk about some f/f/ YA romcom #MSWL goals, amirite?

And, of course, a million things I haven't thought of yet. Surprise me! Root Lit submission guides: rootliterary.com/submissions
