On my #MSWL for 2021: enigmaticeditor.blogspot.com/2021/01/my-man… #Romance #UF #PNR #SCIFI #Fantasy #Steampunk #MagicalRealism #querytip

I want (more than anything) for those stories to be centered around black teens and teens of color who are passionate & creative & happy to let their geek flag fly. Stories with inclusive casts that are supportive, want to have fun & make a difference with their creations. #MSWL

📚 Finally, I want entertaining, inspirational stories about fandom and geek communities. I'm looking for less fanfic & cosplay stories (unless they are super unique & have a killer voice) & more stories about video games, web comics, anime/manga, podcasts, film, and more. #MSWL

EVERYTHING! I love a good tournament arc, epic showdown & accidental/acedemic athlete (as long as they put in the work to get even better). Examples: Rock climbing, running, roller derby, rowing, chess, esports, board games, cooking, LARPing, ice skating . . . Surprise me! #MSWL

📚 More diverse, inclusive sport & competition stories! Send me entertaining stories that make palms sweat & hearts race & inspire us to get out & try something new. Underdog teams, determined solo athlete, and everything in between are fair game. So what counts? #MSWL

📚 More diverse, inclusive teens falling in love! Looking for romance, romantic comedy & situational rom-coms that can make me laugh and then hit me in all the feels. Favorites: fake dating, rivals-to-lovers, friends-to-lovers, stuck together & second chance #MSWL

I really want an upbeat, playful femme/non-binary friend squad just figuring out life & supporting the heck out of each other. Generally also looking for stories with conflicts that test the group dymanics but make them stronger as they work TOGETHER to overcome obstacles #MSWL

📚 Contemporary, commercial YA with an upbeat voice, emotional stakes & a heart of gold! Send all the situational comedies, quirky coming of age & tried-and-true friendship/squad stories. #MSWL

📚 First and foremost, I'm looking for more YA and children's non-fiction by BIPOC, LGBTQ, & other marginalized creators and stories that are bursting with joy and passion -- especially when it comes to fandom/pop culture/geek stories and communities! #MSWL

This absolutely beautiful! Total #MSWL for me right now! instagram.com/p/CJbtPfBJK1y/…

I would love to see a historical proposal on this! #mswl #writingcommunity #historicalfiction

Happy New Year! Quick reminder that I'm reopening to submissions for *8 weeks only* from tomorrow morning (and I've actually updated my auto-response in advance this time!) Guidelines and my #MSWL on our website here: dkwlitagency.co.uk/submissions/ BRING ON 2021!

Halloween is still my favorite holiday so anything with that spooky Halloween vibe is also my jam #MSWL

Also where is my crime fighting grannies book 👀 by day they are the Knitting Nanas by night they rid their town of villains #MSWL

Historical that highlight underrepresented voices, and romances that go beyond the MC just wanting a love match are high on my wants list #MSWL

I’m really hoping to add more adult authors to my list this year as well #MSWL

I’m still on the hunt for an amazing cheerleader story that shows just how amazing they are as athletes #MSWL

I want stories that transport me to places I’ve never been before whether those be fantasy worlds or different countries no travel in 2020 has me looking to books for that wanderlust #MSWL

I want stories that seek to answer BIG questions — interpret that as you will #MSWL

Friendships! I’m so tired of the Mean Girl thing. Show me people supporting each other and lifting each other up not breaking each other down #MSWL
