This hits on so many of my #MSWL I'd love to take a look.

Soooo I'm just going to pop in to say that a Sisterhood of Traveling Pants like friendship story with an all queer and/or POC cast of character has been on my #mswl for aaaawhile.

#MSWL MG fantasy with an unlikable female protagonist

"Thriller (legal, medical, political, etc.), Mystery (cozy, private eye, police procedural, etc.)" @CurtisPSLA #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Some things I am looking for:
- YA RomCom (or adult) with a diverse cast and smart topics.
- MG/YA nonfiction
- LGBTQ+ nonfiction
- Graphic novels in pretty much anything on my wishlist
- #LGBTQIA+ characters in everything.
- Body diversity
- Underrepresented voices
#MSWL

Send me your female manipulators, your lady cult leaders, your femme masters of deception and villainy. #mswl

Cults of personality.

Historically & in fiction, villains who amass power via charisma, mass manipulation, & curated public personae are male. Non-male villains usually use psychological/emotional power on individuals (e.g. femmes fatales). I want this trope genderswapped!

I'm just putting this out there. #MSWL

I know! Maybe you’re writing something? 😉

I’d love to see contemporary Jewish YA without the b’nei mitzvot or Holocaust or even anti-Semitism. I am up for inter-faith relationships tho - if done in a fresh way. 😊 #MSWL

#MSWL Contemporary Jewish romance! What about a cute rabbi who falls in ❤️ with her cantor? Modern orthodox man falls in ❤️ with a Reform fella? Anyone? Anyone?

I want the MG or YA book about a junior handler in dog shows.

My family comes from the dog show world, so it's near and dear to my heart. #MSWL

“For me, literary fiction lives and dies in its characters and writing, send me your complex, diverse characters grappling with what it means to be human something in the vein of Tom Rachman’s THE IMPERFECTIONISTS.” @maureen_moretti #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

I need a scene in a manuscript where a couple is dancing in the kitchen. That's all. (I had Shall We Dance on today...) #MSWL

Another #mswl for today: historical fiction set in the 20th century.

Updated #MSWL: humorous PB's with a surprise twist, and non-fic focusing on unsung heroes (pref. #ownvoices), MG with a clear narrative arc, unforgettable characters and a strong emotional core. Stories that bring out the magic in the ordinary. And ghosts!

If anyone’s got an adult Harlots-style romance/fiction floating around, with all of the sisterhood and wigs and perhaps a tad less murder (not a dealbreaker), you know where to find me... #MSWL
