WRITERS! I'm excited to see what the new year will bring to my inbox. If you write YA/MG/PB/NF, please check out my #MSWL to see if we might be a good fit. (a little Elmo energy because I'm enjoying Elmo/Rocco a little bit too much) bit.ly/smaurermswl

This great @annehelen interview with activist Ragen Chastain (@danceswithfat) reminds me of a #MSWL: I'd love to do a picture book about fatness and body positivity with a BIPOC team. If you have a MS, hit me up! annehelen.substack.com/p/i-had-been-h…

PICTURE BOOK:
--Offbeat humor and cheeky, adventurous characters
--Thoughtful, emotional stories with unusually beautiful art

Hi, agent friends :) It's about that time: New Year, New #MSWL 📚✒️

I edit picture books, middle grade novels, and YA novels/nf, as well as select graphic novels across genres.

I prioritize intersectional stories that center BIPOC characters & their unique, varied experiences.

Updated manuscript wishlist: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/thal…. Looking forward to reading some fantastic American history picture books and historical novels in 2022. #MSWL #kidlit #picturebooks #HistoricalFiction #YA #middlegrade

First day back in the office and I'm looking forward to some wonderful books in 2022!

I'm currently looking for:

* author-illustrated picture books

In Picture Books, I'd love to see:
🍎Family traditions and how they shape us
🍎Silly and fun wordplay
🍎Poetic, lyrical books that show emotional resilience
🍎Biographies and nonfiction focusing on people and eras that have been historically overlooked

Agents: If anyone has a winter solstice-themed picture book manuscript ready, I'd love to see it in the new year...

#MSWL

Just a reminder that I (and many other editors!) are eager to acquire and amplify trans voices. Agents, I’m always looking for picture books, graphic novels, and MG/YA novels that uplift the trans community 🏳️‍⚧️ No more room in this world or on our pub lists for bigotry & hate!

WRITERS! I'm open to queries through the holidays so if you have a finished YA/MG/PB/NF ms you're excited about and don't want to wait for the new year, send it over! #MSWL here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/shar…
