Come to think of it, if someone wants to write me an ode-to-pitbulls picture book called "Pitbulls Are Perfect," wherein (for example) a child explains to the viewer why pitties are, in fact, perfect...Well I'd be mighty happy to see that in my inbox from your agent. #mswl

Alright #writers, here's the deal. I'm largely focused on my adult nonfiction list, a tiny bit of adult fiction, and a very, very select amount of children's. When it comes to PB, I'm personally interested in elevating historically underrepresented voices. More in thread. #mswl

#MSWL: Agents, I’d love to find a picture book that is both charming and funny. So many sad submissions in my inbox lately that I’m in need of a good laugh. #PictureBooks

My MerMay #mswl: adorable PB with synchronized swimming mermaids. Adult feminist horror about douchebags who go on boys’ fishing trip and scary mermaid who hunts them. That is all.

I would love a picture-book biography of Oscar Micheaux by a Black writer who loves the art of film. #MSWL

I recently reread ALMA AND HOW SHE GOT HER NAME and it’s truly one of my all time favorites. I’d love to see more projects in my inbox exploring the things—names, food, places—that connect us with the generations before us. PB (author-illustrator only), MG/YA novel, GN. #mswl

Mosquito Eaters don't actually EAT mosquitoes? Who else knew about this??? This sounds like a great #pb to me. Misunderstood bugs #mswl!

Picture books with punch and heart, non-fiction with a fresh twist (especially for MG and YA!), fiction with a singular voice and fierce energy. Relevant, resonant, and smart.

Agents! With the conversation around the sheer amount of subs we receive, here's what will stand out to me right now: Vibrant, energetic pbs that focus on joy, character, community, & heritage. Super relevant NF for all age groups. Contemp/hist fiction that will sweep me away...
