I've passed on several manuscripts recently (one with BIPOC elves that made me cry to say no to, in particular) ALL because the word counts were 180k and over.Thank you, Ann, for explaining WHY we end up doing this. twitter.com/annmrose/statu…
In other news though... BIPOC Elves are on my #MSWL

as always, i am prioritizing marginalized authors—disabled, BIPOC, queer, neurodivergent, etc. my main goal is to lift and champion authors from underrepresented communities!

in terms of GENRES and NARRATIVES, I love:
- historical, particularly 19th and 20th century and particularly focused on international, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ stories
- alternate history
- dark academia
- horror and gothic
- character-led literary fiction

Non-fiction from those with a strong platform, especially written by BIPOC creators. Can be a unique perspective regarding art, science, food, current issues, mental health, etc.
My updated #MSWL is live. I'd love to add some great new clients (to join my existing great clients❤️) and dig into projects together! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/jen-…
I'm also very eager to support books about marginalized characters, by marginalized creators. BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, neurodiversity, and disability representation is more than welcome here!

We need more BIPOC in horror. There’s so much rich history and folklore, not to mention the countless years of colonial occupation that’s been fodder for the horror stories of countless communities 😭#MSWL please!! I’m on such a horror kick and would love to see these in my inbox (and if I have yours already, feel free to let me know)
