I should note here - I would LOVE to see more PB queries from authors whose experiences are underrepresented in publishing. That's permanently on my #MSWL!

Though I think it goes without saying, within these genres, I'd love to work with writers from underrepresented communities.

On another note, agents & publishing folks, if you're interested in chatting, I'd love to meet more people to talk books and anything/everything else! 🥰

Some #MSWL things:

1) MG fantasy, please! Especially myth-based, w/a strong focus on character, & a beautiful world/setting.

2) Contemporary MG/YA with LGBTQ+ characters.

3) MG graphic novels!

4) Underrepresented voices.

5) YA or MG that deals w/grief and/or mental health.

As a Black editor, one of my goals is to acquire diverse voices including LGTBQIA+, BIPOC, Latinx, neurodiverse, and other underrepresented identities. I’m very passionate about diversity and representation in publishing. #MSWL

QueryManager.com/AnneTibbets

Interested in working with me? Send query/synopsis/full ms to my attention via entangledpublishing.submittable.com/submit/. BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and all underrepresented voices are encouraged to query. #MSWL link in my bio 💛

For nonfiction, I'm looking for projects in the areas of:
#business
#memoir
#truecrime
#NarrativeNonfiction
#HistoryandCurrentAffairs
#ReligionandSpirituality
I want to hear from subject matter experts, leaders, and underrepresented voices. It all starts with a #query.

What do I mean by underrepresented voices? Writers of color, neurodiversity, I/DD... I want stories that explore both universal and uncomfortable truths, and joy. See my #submissionguidelines here: martinlit.com/submission-pol…

Alright #writers, here's the deal. I'm largely focused on my adult nonfiction list, a tiny bit of adult fiction, and a very, very select amount of children's. When it comes to PB, I'm personally interested in elevating historically underrepresented voices. More in thread. #mswl

My DMs are still open to marginalized authors who are interested in any Love Inspired imprint. But I'm especially in the mood for suspense! If you're from an underrepresented background and writing about MCs falling in love while fighting for their lives, please reach out. #mswl

I enthusiastically seek BIPOC, LGBTQAI+, disabled, neurodiverse, religious minority & otherwise underrepresented authors for my list & my goal is to publish books that prioritize making underrepped readers feel seen over making readers outside those groups comfortable
#MSWL 17/?

• Original, unforgettable characters with the potential to become universally beloved household names
• Expansive, unique & cinematic worlds—whether fantastical or a part of the real world that’s been underrepresented or that feels fresh through the creator’s eyes
#MSWL 7/?

#MSWL for traditionally underrepresented voices in #A or #YA #F & #SF that center BIPOC w/ an emphasis on intersectionality, and stories rooted in culture & identity.

for disney hyperion, i'm looking for YA by underrepresented creators ft. underrepresented characters, specifically commercial, contemporary 📚 that lead with joy

i love diverse romcoms & romdrams & anything soap-y, highly aspirational, & with high emotional stakes (5/6)

#mswl

#mswl: I’m looking for cookbooks! Unique perspectives, standout concepts, and/or underrepresented cultures and cuisines! Hit me up on QueryManager: querymanager.com/becky_lejeune

I'm prioritizing projects by and about BIPOC and underrepresented voices. Within that, particularly interested in projects with intersectionality, trans and disability rep, and ANYTHING by Native, First Nations and Indigenous authors. #mswl

Finally, I'm looking for trade length books in the Romantic Suspense, Historical Fiction, Amish, and Women's Fiction genres. These submissions should be agented, but if you're from a historically underrepresented group, my DMs are open for questions. #mswl 4/4

I'd love to see more submissions from authors from historically underrepresented groups for Love Inspired Suspense (bit.ly/3d03y0T). Thrust your hero and heroine into danger right away and keep the threat going. Bonus points for including strong women! #mswl 2/4

Just boosting this again. My DMs are still open to authors from underrepresented backgrounds interested in the Love Inspired lines at Harlequin. We publish Christian fiction in category romance and other genres. Let me know if you have questions. #mswl 1/4
