A high-concept, adorable and swoony YA romance, especially featuring POC characters #mswl

Have you read WORDS ON BATHROOM WALLS? A journal to the main character's therapist had me hooked from the first page! I love when author's really think about structure and PoV. Letters and journals can be so revealing. 💌 #MSWL

An own-voices undocumented immigration story for any age group #MSWL

#MSWL Common tropes with a fresh twist--falling for your best friend, enemies to lovers, etc. Take something cliche, and subvert it, or make it new.

YA that takes a nuanced look at abortion and/or consent from a unique lens and/or high concept setup #mswl

Looking for BIPOC and white LGBTQ+ contemporary and fantasy authors with strong hooks in the query and an uplifting vibe. YA and MG alike. Graphic novels too, please! #MSWL
Editor
A fun MG centered around a place a la Mr. Lemoncello's Library or The 13th Story Treehouse #mswl

A few new #mswl asks... (more here: mswishlist.com/editor/allison…) (can only accept mss through agents or through conferences I have attended)

I love an author who can tell a story with a tight timeline. DATE ME, BRYSON KELLER had a two-week romantic arc and THIS IS MY AMERICA had the mc's father on death row with less than a year left. Send me your stories where the stakes are high and the clock is ticking! ⌛️💣Is your mc living a lie? I'm fascinated by stories where the main character has a deep secret, even if it's MG! #MSWL

#MSWL how-to guides for the fragile future, books by and for the next generation of activists, Native voices, manifestos, anti-capitalist business books?

Finally, I am always looking for inclusive storytelling. LGBTQIA+ characters, less explored mythologies, SFF from authors of color, neurodivergence. #MSWL
Editor
Middle-aged/older women on adventures! Adventure does not have an age limit! #MSWL
Editor
Reincarnated champions a la Legend of Zelda. I want the adventure, but also the struggle with the legacy. What does it MEAN to be under that kind of generational pressure? #MSWL
Editor
The next Uprooted. Folklore/fairytale/mythical roots with original characters and plots. #MSWL
Editor
SFF with personal stakes rather than global stakes #MSWL
