young adult — boarding school mysteries, queer fake dating romances, and magical realism

#kidlit #mswl

hello querying writers — new year, new mswl website + thread.

[ inspo: @loveleemonicaa | #amquerying #mswl ]

I'm getting a lot of submissions in two categories lately, so maybe it's worth saying on here: I'm not looking to acquire more novels in verse at this moment, and my picture book list is quite limited. Right now, my #mswl is skewed toward mg and YA.

After a year at Creative Media Agency, I'm thrilled to open to #queries as an associate agent! I'm looking for:

- Women's fiction
- Romance
- Domestic suspense/thriller
- YA
- Narrative nonfiction & more!

See my full #MSWL :

as we wrap up Jan 2024 (kinda) I would just like to say: agents, please send more POC YA fantasy and YA romance my way pls and thnx #mswishlist #mswl

For #kidlit , I’m focusing more on middle grade and young adult this year 🫡👍🏽#mswl

Check out the images below for Micah's #MSWL ! She's looking for #YA contemporary, #dystopian , commercial fiction, and upmarket stories. Micah is also open to #screenplays .

Expand the image to see the categories I am currently accepting. If you don’t see your project represented here, please do not submit at this time. Stay tuned for when I open more broadly.

Just updated my #MSWL for anyone who wants to take a gander. Still looking for the next fantasy or sci-fi MS that pushes my buttons. I like a little darkness, a harrowing adventure. Also always looking for NF in a bunch of categories.

Going into 2024, I would love to acquire clean (light romance/no or minimal cursing) YA fiction of any genre except fantasy. I am also seeking clean adult commerical romance/romcoms and compelling book club fiction. #MSWL #authorcommunity #amquerying

Bring me myth, fairytale, and classic retellings!

Bring me vibes!

Bring me:

Locked-room YA thrillers
Rivals-to-lovers tension-filled romcoms
Unbearably clever YA heroes
Romantasy with characters to die for
An MG novel full of magical creatures
Heists
Female friendships

#MSWL

...YA, to start! Across genres, joyful, diverse, heartfelt YA novels with compelling plots and characters stood out to me last year, and I would love more on my list! Think ELATSOE, YEAR OF THE REAPER, YOU SHOULD SEE ME IN A CROWN, LITTLE THIEVES, THE GHOSTS OF ROSE HILL #MSWL

I updated my #MSWL page for the first time in... a decade? And I'm looking forward to reading some great submissions in 2024.

Agents, among other things, I'd love to find a feel-good underdog sports story to weep over and/or edit. Hit me up! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/katherine-harrison/
