What I'm hoping to see in my inbox? An upmarket fiction piece about a woman with a cool outdoorsy or animal-related job (think STEM). #MSWL

I’d be delighted to discover any STEM-focused fiction. I’m particularly intrigued by a MG heist novel where the whole planning stage isn’t just the brief montage one often gets in the movies. I want to see the nerdy figure out how it works stuff! #MSWL

Today is the day!! The submissions email is open! 😁
Pitch me your work about:
Women in STEM
Groundbreaking and boundary-testing historical characters
Pop psychology pieces
Stay tuned for more from my #MSWL.

Hi #writingcommunity! I have 9 middle-grade queries in my box right now. I WANT MORE.
Adventure, Fantasy, sci-fi, magical realism, horror, historical, everything!
Also, I am open to considering non-fiction middle-grade novels, especially LGBTQ+ and STEM for girls. #MSWL

In upmarket fiction, I’m looking for precise angles:
> Period pieces with women breaking into lively professions (think TV or comedy a la I Love Lucy).
> Women in S.T.E.M
> Anything geeky but accessible
> Gender fluid, masc. of centre, and non-binary protagonists. #MSWL

My number 1 #MSWL wish is for general nonfiction that teaches while it entertains. Have an obsession? Teach me about something I don't know!Common winners: Creepy history, unsolved mysteries, common science topics with a twist (Space + X; STEM + X), folklore
Hello. I didn't even realize I need this. #MSWL

@nfrail17 Hi Nicole! I feel silly, but can you clarify the phrase "project-based nonfiction" for us (me)? :)Sure! Full of projects. Step-by-step instructions, photos or illustrations. Crafts, gardening, drawing, cooking. How-to. Anything STEM/STEAM related is great for kids too.
Also, for kids, non-project is fine too, like mental and emotional health journals/workbooks. #MSWL

I read a lot of popular science books.Authorship of science nonfiction has a serious diversity problem.
Are you a woman and/or POC and/or LGBTQIA+ individual who loves STEM?
WRITE A BOOK. DO IT. PLEASE.
I will do my best to keep up with reviewing and sharing them! 📚🔬
#MSWL I really want to see nonfiction popular science book proposals by authors from underrepresented groups in my inbox!

I’m really hungry for #MG stories where the protagonist uses #STEM in badass and witty ways. Gimme? Query me. #mswl

#MSWL Would love to find women's fiction, thrillers and Middle Grade submissions that incorporate popular science and STEM themes. Love richly evocative stories that have a strong sense of the natural world.

YA romcoms are my jam. Always have been. I want to see more STEM, fun jobs, and unique hobbies. DON’T DATE ROSA SANTOS, WHEN DIMPLE MET RISHI, ROYALS, and ALEX, APPROXIMATELY are perfect examples of voice, humor, and substance in contemp YA romcoms! #mswl

I’d love to get in more Women’s/General fiction! Here’s my current #MSWL: Multicultural stories; Women in STEM; High-concept historical; Millennial characters/themes; or Queer fiction. Can be a combination of any of the above.
