#MSWL if someone would like to write a picture book biography about all the marvelous, kind, beautiful things Robin Williams did with his brilliant and complex life, I would like to be first in line to see it!

#MSWL IF YOU HAVE A PICTURE BOOK ABOUT THIS, I WANT TO SEE IT.

(agented only please!)

On my #MSWL: #ParanormalRomance or #UrbanFantasy featuring unique, or less written about, creatures. cityowlpress.com/queries/#mysti… AFTER reading guidelines, scroll to the bottom of the page for submission link. #PNR #querytip

Me too!!! #mswl
But I’d really love it with a voice we’ve not seen before.

#mswl I am looking for middle-grade mystery. Mysteries were one of my fav things to read and watch as a kid. Take me back to The Goonies and Encyclopedia Brown with mystery, adventure, friendship, and an element finding yourself.

#mswl Would also love a mg or ya adventure or mystery set in the OBX. Plus pirates would be great. Own voices A-A male or female protagonists would be ah-may-zing.

“Picture Books: stories with literary sensibilities, nonfiction (not biographies) the Wheel of the Year, cultural traditions/folklore/history.” @msmariavicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation

And finally if you have chapter book or middle grade book that uses humour, adventure, fantasy, sci-fi or any combination thereof to help little kids explore their big feelings like in COCO and OVER THE MOON, please send me your work. #mswl

2. Commercial fantasy adventure series, ensemble casts with or without a talking creature or two
3. Monsters!
4. Contemporary family stories
5. LOL high concept, character-strong stories
6. Hooky, character-driven contemporary series

More specifically in MG, i love a great, accessible voice and humor across the spectrum, but also more serious literary stories. MORE specifically:

1. Madcap adventures in any genre

“I’d love to see middle-grade adventure novels. The next female Indiana Jones or a young Lara Croft.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

I'd love a paranormal or urban fantasy romance where the types of magical beings vary. Use a unique voice and humor. Sookie Stackhouse comes to mind. QueryManager.com/LisaGreenQueri…
#MSWL

No joke! I'm open to queries again!

Open until June 30! Updated #mswl here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/nata…

PB/CB/MG/YA/GN, fiction & nonfiction, and adult nonfiction

I need a chapter book series about the adventures and hijinks these girls go on! PLEASE! #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

#MSWL A take on Red, White and Royal Blue but with rival mafia kids. Lots of adventure please.

I would love to see a mash-up of Carnival Row and Sin City that fits into Mystic Owl's guidelines (up to 75k, or editable down to it). #MSWL #UF cityowlpress.com/queries/#mysti… #querytip #querytrenches

Adult SF: Becky Chambers, Peter F Hamilton, Kim Stanley Robinson, Kate Elliott, Mary Robinette Kowal, Emma Newman

Urban fantasy: Kim Harrison, Charles de Lint (6/7)

okay i can't stop thinking about it, which means i have to #mswl it:

agents, if you can send me an adventure romance that evokes the fun, the fear, and love story that's in THE MUMMY (1999), you may just find yourself a book deal
