4.2) Historical or contemporary fantasy with a sharp, fresh, feminist twist on old folklore. Looking for my Holly Black or YA Alix Harrow 🙏

4) Who's the next big thing in YA or MG fantasy? I want to help them get there, and I want them in my inbox. ❤️ Specifically:

3) High-concept YA contemporary or contemporary-with-a-twist, especially if it comes with an irreverent, self-referentially funny voice. Sarcastic or endearingly self-deprecating humor to the front of the line. I love a protagonist who feels like a co-conspirator.

2) Whoever brings me a queer YA read-alike to Casey McQuiston's Red, White, & Royal Blue and/or One Last Stop will win my heart forever (and more to the point, a lot of money 😇)

officially up on #MSWL !! check me out ;3

Really happy to see my MIDDLE GRADE HORROR list growing with @saskwriter and @Lora013's debuts. I'm always looking for horror across the board from MG to YA to Adult, though not of the gross-out variety, but do give me eerie, tension-filled, scary with heart! #MSWL #MG #horror

“Remember the trend of adult couple resort romcom movies? Share with me your diverse YA equivalents.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Would love a YA I Dream of Genie meets Weird Science #MSWL. Think two high school boys end up with magic lantern, hijinks ensue. Awkward male coming of age but more heartfelt emotions, not sexed up fantasy. But super fun and funny.

I’d love to see more POC/BIPOC (own voices) YA romance stories. Bonus points for intersectionality! #mswl

Authors, my submission inbox is open and my #MSWL is updated! Take a look and if I sound like a fit, send me your query: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/chel… #amwriting #amquerying

It’s been a while since I updated my #MSWL: I’m on the hunt for hooky & commercial YA and MG, original worldbuilding & plot driven narratives - & would particularly like to see diverse protagonists across race, sexuality and gender. For more details see: petersfraserdunlop.com/agent/lucy-irv…

I'm looking for Middle Grade and Young Adult manuscripts, strong and diverse voices, as well as brave and character-driven narratives across all genres. I'm always looking for #ownvoices LGBTQI+

Give me this exact energy in YA format #MSWL

thread and honestly any beat of this story is a #MSWL for me in especially #MG & also #YA

I also do adore tropes. Enemies to lovers, marriage of convenience, fake dating, slow burn... I’d love to see marginalized voice playing with these tropes in their books, especially YA fantasy (and romance of course)! #MSWL

(YA/MG genre continued) Like with contemporary, I am especially interested in queer, disabled, and BIPOC protagonists, especially when the books are not issue driven. But above all give me a good, page turning adventure. #mswl

For YA and MG genre, I love genre fiction with fast pacing and high stakes. I am generally not preferential to any specific genre as long as the rules of the genre are respected and understood.... #mswl

(YA/MG contemp continued) I am especially interested in queer, disabled, and BIPOC protagonists, especially when the books are not issue driven. #mswl

For YA & MG contemp., I love fiction where the main character has average, everyday challenges and we see how they overcome them. I love books that are lighthearted and emotionally driven.... #mswl

#MSWL update! I'm now accepting thrillers in adult fiction (as well as in YA, which has always been the case). I am NOT looking for anything law-enforcement focused, including FBI/CIA. I am looking for the story to contribute to a larger sociopolitical conversation.
