I am especially keen to find YA mysteries & love stories, anything with an unreliable narrator & voicey MG characters who know their own minds! 🤗 I love historical & also contemporary adventures with a twist! Glorious writing is top of my wishlist - ALWAYS! #MSWL

For the new year, in addition to my forever #MSWL on the ArtHouse page, in 2023, I’m looking for some specifics!!:
- picture book nonfiction
- narrative nonfiction/memoirs (think MAID)
- middle grade National Treasure with non-founding father artifacts
- adult Black romance

"I'm looking for the type of magical picture books that sticks with a child throughout their life—the kind that lingers."

My top 2 Adult Romance #MSWL wishes would be:
 
1. Adventure romance like The Mummy or Romancing the Stone—super steamy & fun, w/ a hint of suspense or the supernatural
 
2. Contemporary romance series set in a big city w/ a small town vibe—think Friends meets Virgin River

Would love to see a YA "Bad Sisters" or a Sarah Dessen-type novel with BIPOC main characters. Would also love an MG with some badass main characters. How about a PB with a crazy, funny twist at the end? #MSWL

💜WRITERS💜 No need to wait until the new year--I'm open to queries and would love to see your work. YA/MG/PB fiction and NF. Make me laugh, make me swoon, make me cry. BIPOC, LGBTQ+, disabled and other underrepresented creators please query! #MSWL here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/shar…

"I love a unique atmosphere/strong sense of place in books across the board, whether that be picture books, middle grade, or adult fiction."

I have a manuscript wishlist now 🥰🥰 i'm but a humble EA but send me things and if I love them i'll do what i can! #mswishlist manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/tova…

So very excited to share I've joined @ktliterary!

I will be opening to queries in the new year, continuing to rep picture books, middle grade and YA novels, graphic novels, and nonfiction.

Please send me all of your gorgeous, lyrical (but not rhyming) picture books that are seasonal or focused on beautiful surroundings. Extra points if you send me a picture book that features the northern lights ⭐️ #mswl #pb

"I'm looking for the next hilarious, commercial-feeling picture book that will crack kids up!"

I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want. I wanna, I wanna steaming hot, can't put down PNR/UF with witches that's no longer than 75,000 words. Come on, people, rescue me from queriers who send me what I clearly state I DON'T take. #MSWL

Give me books for #generationartemis! All the space books EXCEPT space opera (sorry!)! Think Andy Weir, Mary Doria Russell, and Fonda Lee. Also more fiction picture books with space themes! Non-fiction is good too, but I want something fresh.

First, you can find out more about me and what I'm looking for anytime on our website: dunhamlit.com/anjanette-barr…

I really love elephants.

If you are an illustrator with an elephant picture book, hit me up. I’d love an elephant book of an elephant living its life in wild. Not living it up in the big city Babar-style. (Also less colonialism) #mswl

Good news #MSWL has my new post up. manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/anis… I hope this helps anyone having trouble getting to know what I am working on.

"Pitch me your picture books: illustrated stories with literary sensibilities, nonfiction topics (not biographies), cultural traditions/folklore/history."

"I love picture books about family traditions/cultural traditions, especially when there is food, cooking, baking, or recipes involved."

Ok, let’s talk #fantasy. I’m a fan of #romantasy, and am a sucker for a good love-triangle. I tend to be more urban fantasy rather than high-fantasy. Give me faeries, witches, and vampires any day of the week and I will be happy!

Is “send me your book that reads like fanfiction written about your queer dnd party’s adventures” too specific of an #MSWL?
