I just watched BOTTOMS and, unfortunately, it's going to be my personality for a few months. I'd love a YA with that level of funny, young voice and tropes taken to absurdist extremes.

Niche #mswl dream projects: I'd love a girl in the world of competitive online gaming. YA or NA

Some niche #MSWL dream projects: CRYPTIDS. YA fiction with some mystery, thriller, maybe even horror. Give me the eery Appalachia stories or a chupacabra in Puerto Rico. If you have cryptids, I want to see it.

Happy to take part in manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social #MSWL Day! Please see my full guidelines for more information www.stormliteraryagency.com/submission-g...

But I'd love to see something with the different cultures and #LGBTQ influences of XO, Kitty in YA Contemporary Romance!

#MSWL I'm looking just for MG and YA for original submissions, but agents, most of what I do is IP/work-for-hire on brands and licenses, mostly picture books through chapter books, activity books, and some nonfiction picture books. If you have clients with experience in that space, let me know!

Okay, agent friends, it's #MSWL time! I'm an Associate Editor at Penguin Workshop, looking for middle grade and YA, as well as graphic novels in both categories. I love historical fiction, fantasy, and mysteries, and if you have something that combines those elements in a clever way, send it to me!

Happy #MSWL day! I’m Aiden Siobhan at @ldlainc .bsky.social. I rep Adult, YA & MG! I am on the hunt for:
-Diverse stories that are joyful, defiant, inspiring
-Genre fiction & blends
-Fresh settings/adaptions/myths
-Disability, mental health, and ND rep
www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/aiden-siobhan/

For #YA , I’m really on the lookout for a cozy fantasy, fantasy with immersive world building, dark academia, and would love a fresh take on vampires or the Eternal One trope.

For #MG , it’s all about the voice and high stakes adventure for me.

Thanks to manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social for organizing #MSWL day! I’m open from 1-7 of every month and here is what I’ll be looking for in March:

I rep PB-YA and gravitate towards projects that have a clear, commercial hook and a captivating voice. 🧵

I’m looking for what I like to call “weird and wonderful” YA novels. Magic realism, or stories that blend genres to create something new. Examples: Wilder Girls by Rory Power, They Both Die at the End by Adam Silvera, and The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender by Leslye Walton. #MSWL

It's #MSWL day!! I'm currently closed to queries and working my way through, so this is going to be VERY specific. I'm hungry for BIPOC sports- and hobby-centric MG and YA. And in adult, BIPOC-led mysteries (including cozies) and thrillers. I don't get enough of either of these!! Link below:

Please be nice and don't use this link unless your work truly matches. If it doesn't match and it's submitted using this link, it's an automatic pass from me.

#MSWL I’d love to find a YA/crossover or adult novel that is magical, dark, and mysterious in our own grounded world a la Maggie Stiefvater’s THE RAVEN BOYS or a cozy with-some-teeth fantasy like Emily Wilde’s ENCYCLOPEDIA OF FAERIES.

- YA mysteries that feel like Truly Devious or One of Us is Lying

- YA psychological thrillers like We Were Liars

- YA horror that is gently spooky and also very dark YA horror

Happy #MSWL to all! This is my page, updated it relatively recently: www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/em... I will be open to queries again on the 3rd of March. I'd love some voicey YA, particularly with romance, picture books on topics not usually addressed in pbs & fantasy that sweeps me away.

#MSWL You can call it dystopian, near-future, 5 minutes in the future--whatever you like--but I'm looking for grounded speculative fiction in both YA and Adult with stellar prose, resonant and relevant themes, and deep character development.

Though I've been dipping my toes into younger children's books lately, the only children's genre I'm actively seeking out is YA. I love a funny contemporary YA novel, a twisty mystery, or a super dark horror novel. Basically, I'm looking for the same genres in adult and YA. #MSWL

In contemporary YA, I want weird. I want queer. I want earnestness unafraid of itself. I want wordplay. I want fun. Would love to see something contained within a unique setting—on set at a TV show, at sea, something about leap years… #MSWL

Happy #MSWL day! I’m an associate agent at Azantian Literary Agency, looking for:

•select middle grade
•young adult contemporary realistic fiction, and realistic-ish, like A.S. King
•queer romance
•adult nonfiction

Wanna dive deeper into my wishlist? Let’s!

Just a reminder, while I am open to all speculative fiction, I'm really looking to fill some *specific* areas:

High heat romantasy
Non-western fantasy
YA + MG horror/horror romance
YA + MG mystery/thriller

(Here are some past visual #MSWL )

*note, I do not represent these books*

It's #MSWL day!

Today I'm hunting for YA Science Fiction, the more epic and sweeping the better! Send me Space Operas and Starships, Undiscovered Planets and Aliens galore.

(Pierce Brown for YA would be a dream comp)
