Agent @carlywatters is officially reopened to queries today! Check out her #MSWL and submission guidelines at: psliterary.com/submissions

OPEN TO QUERIES: Adult, select young adult, and select middle grade. Please note the genres I rep or don't rep. Authors in marginalized communities encouraged to query. Details at triciaskinner.com under #MSWL section.

#MSWL alert: I am VERY HUNGRY for middle grade projects right now! Fun MG mysteries, adventures, spooky paranormal, inventive fresh grounded fantasy, especially from folks from traditionally marginalized groups. #MG #paranormal #ownvoices #fantasy #mystery #adventure

“Literary fiction with splashes of time travel, secret societies, cults, and the apocalypse? Yes. Please.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

Would love to see more fiction submissions in my inbox!! Particularly a big, emotional family drama with multiple POVs—some faves are LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE, BEARTOWN, and Bill Clegg’s DID YOU EVER HAVE A FAMILY #MSWL

SOME NEWS! After an S&S restructure, I'm now at McElderry, where I'll still be acquiring YA but will *also* be actively looking to build my MG list!

So agents, please keep me in mind for all your upcoming SFF middle grade! I'm definitely prioritizing that at the moment. #MSWL

My personal #MSWL on my website has been updated. taragilbert.com/mswl/

#Pridemonth may be ending, but Brandylane Publishers is committed to year-round pride in our diverse staff and diversity in literature. We’re stoked to have several #LGBTQbooks slated for release in 2021! Please send us your manuscripts to help us grow our #queerlit. #MSWL

So. Stunning. Please send all the PB, MG, and YA books about the art of hair, makeup, and fashion created by Black folks my way. #MSWL

Echoing this #MSWL (which you probably could've guessed from looking at my Twitter header). A YA retelling of "The Green Ribbon"? Please send it my way!

This post reminds me that I need one of you YA authors to write a creepy gothic retelling of the story of green ribbon girl. Maybe a graphic novel?!? #mswl

I really, really, want a queer romcom. If you have queried me or plan to, please ping me here so I know. #mswl.

#MSWL or things like this

“I want to read geeky and accessible adult commercial fiction. Show me all the cool things the comic con kids grew up to do.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Again, still looking for my Ruby from Cold Mountain type of gun-toting, foul mouthed, take no ish character in lands that didn’t have laws. Historical? #MSWL

Fantasy that takes place in a land of ice and shadows...maybe even complete darkness...is this a thing? Can I has it? #MSWL

Platonic friendship stories, a la The Half of It. Even if one side kind of likes the other, the friendship here is what really drove this story home, and the sacrifices and compromises they made in order to keep it and do right by each other. MORE please. ❤️ #MSWL

Ghost stories. Don’t know why. Don’t know if they will even sell. But I want all the ghost stories that will literally scare me out of bed at night. Thanks in advance for the lack of sleep. If you can honestly scare me, you’re hired. 👻 #MSWL

Also really looking for some amazing African mythology and cultural beliefs/customs via contemporary fantasy, historical fantasy, or just plain fantasy. #MSWL Saw one in my box and am saving it to circle back. I’d love more!!!

I’m also still begging for my King Louis XIV sun king historical court intrigue with maybe a little magic? Historical Fantasy? I could go for just historical too if the writing fits! ❤️ #MSWL
