Tara 💫 queries open Sept 1st @Literary_Tara
And with this in mind, I'd love to see books with sorting systems or the like. It's one of my favorites things. Hunger Game districts, Percy Jackson demi-god parents, Vampire Academy elementals, also ATLA elements, and so many more. #MSWL twitter.com/Charleywriting…My #8 #mswl is a trans book or BIPOC book with a sorting system. twitter.com/Literary_Tara/…

As promised, I'll be doing my top 10 #mswl requests to count down to the reopening of my query box at 1 AM EDT! To note, I'm looking to advocate and support authors from underrepresented communities. Their submissions (especially BIPOC and trans voices) will take priority.

I'd particularly like to see more thrillers of all sorts featuring BIPOC protagonists. (I have asked for this in the past and received great submissions, and I cannot wait to see even more.) #MSWL

Really in the mood for something gothic as hell, full of rot and ruin, a slow-burn romance, twists and turns, and BIPOC protagonists. #MSWL

Agents, please know I’m absolutely ravenous for queer adult #horror for @TorNightfire. Like, foaming at the mouth, clawing at the walls, wailing at the moon, etc. etc. #MSWL twitter.com/garnetmorgue/s…Horror, queer and POC, will be top of my #mswl when I open in a couple weeks!

I would LOVE to see middle grade contemporary stories about families, friendship, or broken friendships. Bonus points for humor and/or mischievous main characters. #MSWL #LGBTQ+ #BIPOC #amquerying #WritingCommunity

My main Qpoc (and all lgbtq) ask is for them just BEING PEOPLE and having a life. Please send me these rather than trauma porn #mswl twitter.com/EmeryLeeWho/st…Seconded ❤️ #MSWL
(Also sorry for the tweet before this that I have deleted—it’s what I get for trying to tweet on the elliptical)

It's been brought to my attention in a sort of roundabout way that people aren't interested in queer books, esp QPoC books, that don't center trauma.Can y'all do me a favor & RT this if you'd love to read some books about queer people with little to no trauma in them?

I'd really like to acquire a children's book that explores a theological concept or aspect of who God is from a BIPOC author with a progressive Christian perspective. Throwing this out into the wind to see what comes back. Thread of books w/ similar themes below. #MSWL

I just want stories where black and POC characters can do fun shit like solve their shitty ex’s murder or investigate the strange blood that coming from the faucet. Like where are those dark and twisty stories?! NOT IN MY INBOX!!! 😭 #mswl
