How’s this for an #MSWL premise: YA romcom. Talented queer girl becomes trainee to be around girls and delay marriage by becoming a star. Right before her debut, she meets the love she’s always dreamed of, and has to choose between becoming a star or living her true dream life.

-- OUR FLAG MEANS DEATH -- I'd love a queer take on pirates in the adult upmarket/book club space, in the vein of OUTLAWED but out at sea. I'd also be interested in this for YA or MG graphic novel!

I open to queries on Friday 4/1! I have a full manuscript wishlist you can see on the #MSWL website, but here are the items I'm looking for in particular:

--Adult suspense & RomCom
--YA contemp w/ a BIG commercial hook
--MG fantasy

I look forward to hearing from you!

✨Hi I’m back OPEN to queries✨

I’ll make a #mswl thread throughout the day, but here are a few things I’d love to see:

✨romantic fantasies
✨assassins, spies, detectives
✨court fantasies (maybe w/fae)
✨YA contemp. retellings of 90s movies

I’m stoked to find new books!!

More BIPOC aristocracy in YA, that's what I'm saying. #MSWL

things that i will forever have on my #MSWL
- sky pirates
- futuristic fantasy
- retellings of lesser-known folktales and myths
- contemporary YA with niche interests at the forefront
- found family

Great question, Kim! Yes, I represent #MG #fantasy. That part of my #MSWL should be read [MG & YA (magical realism & SF)]. Cheers!

- If your protagonist is the girl from TIED TOGETHER WITH A SMILE, I wanna see it.

- Miss Americana and The Heartbreak King because YA, duh.

#MSWL

- I KNEW YOU WERE TROUBLE vibes as a YA romance, but maybe with a HEA.

-THE LUCKY ONE. Not necessarily Hollywood fame, but chasing a dream and realizing you might not want it & flipping it on its head

-MINE. Just for a careless man’s careful daughter. #MSWL

I could do a whole #MSWL on this (MG or YA only please!) so here goes:
-Enchanted. Takes place in one night. Intense romance

- The last great American dynasty. Gimme the outsider protag who kinda relishes screwing up high society

- anything with ONLY THE YOUNG energy

Spring 22 #MSWL:
MG/YA thrillers, rom-coms (fresh hook, please!), magical realism, & under-repped voices
Investigative journalism for MG/YA
BIPOC or #ownvoices PBs
