This was such an invaluable day!! I appreciate everyone who posted their MSWLs! I found so many new agents to query!!

#MSWL day! I'd love to add more funny and spooky to my #pb and #mg list! For more info, check out my mswl here: www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/ka... @manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social

Thank you so much for an amazing #MSWL day! We appreciate your kindness, patience, creativity--and energy put toward helping the writers, agents & editors in our community. We'd love to stay in touch! 💌 manuscriptwishlist.com/subscribe Agent panels + awards + prizes in March!

Happy #MSWL Day! ✏️ I am open the first few days of every month. Deets here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/katie-erickson/. I am actively seeking author-illustrators of both picture books and graphic novels with great page turns and dynamic narratives. Thank you @manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social!

I’m simply sharing this, and definitely not begging that everyone who sees it votes for rom-com. No, no. Definitely not doing that. 👀🫶🏼✍🏼

Next up in our Agent + Editor #MSWL: Jessica Berg at Rosecliff Literary. Jessica is looking for a broad range of fiction and narrative nonfiction including Contemporary, Horror, Gothic Romance, Historical, Narrative Nonfiction & Memoir. Plus, tips on what works for memoir. youtu.be/FQmjPy4Ocb8

@sinceritasc.bsky.social I love your profile description!

Hi Friends! A note that your #MSWL smart searches can include as much detail as you like. Try book, movie and TV comps, names of similar authors, keywords. You're not trying to impress an agent in an elevator--just trying to find connections. Try it here! manuscriptwishlist.com/smart-search

@manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social Open to queries soon. Seeking strong, diverse, multi-cultural voices. PB's with humor, whimsy. YA/MG that oozes coming of age, distinct voices. Adult fiction- friendships, emotional angst, family saga, deep/edgy storylines. www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/sy...

Loved having this conversation with @manuscriptacademy.bsky.social about what projects I’m hoping to see in my query inbox! Also, count how many times I start answering a question by saying “Ooooooooh…🤔”

Happy #MSWL day! Bumping my longer MSWL list here, but I'll also add in a few things I'm looking for in particular!

I haven't done an #MSWL day in a hot minute. I'm not open to queries just yet. Probably March? But my general categories don't tend to change that much... I updated my page here anyway: www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/el...

Happy inaugural #mswl day to all who are #writing and #querying! I’m a literary agent looking for adult fiction and nonfiction. You’ll find my full #mswl profile here, www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/la..., and below is a snapshot of what I'd love to represent this year.

I’d rather read mss that attempt difficult things and execute them pretty well than ones that attempt what’s easy and execute it flawlessly. Dream big #MSWL! Open for submissions in May, read more about what I'm interested in at www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/ch... @lfpbooks.bsky.social

Happy #MSWL Day! 🎉 Here are a couple specifics I’d love to see: -Adult horror based on intriguing historical events (e.g. The Donner Party in Alma Katsu’s THE HUNGER) -High concept adult fiction with a speculative thread for the book club space -Fantasy in spooky settings

I grew up on the coast and really love books that capture the vibes of the ocean--whether that's a lighthouse setting, a coastal town, or a high-seas adventure! #MSWL

One of my dream #MSWL books is a horror novel set in a cave -- think The Descent for books. Claustrophobic, dark, encroaching madness...bonus points for historical setting, an ambiguous ending, or a queer romance subplot. Antarctica horror would be cool too I guess 💁‍♀️

It's #MSWL Day! 😃 🔍 📖 My most recent white whale project? A chilling, thrilling mystery with a disabled detective - where their disability is a strength. Wishlist: www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/le... Submission guidelines: www.openbooklit.com/submissions Next open to queries 3/3/25!

Oh, I'd also love something set in a creepy amusement park! #MSWL

What i would love to see more of in fantasy: blending genres, spies, military academies (weirdly a sucker for this); cozy fantasy, romantasy that is not portal fantasy. #MSWL

If it’s atmospheric fiction laced with artful elements of horror or decay, I’m interested. Read more at www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/ch... #MSWL @lfpbooks.bsky.social

Happy #MSWL Day! Here’s my most recent thread with what I’m looking for (I’d like to add that I do not represent PB or MG) Querying info is at the end — if you think we might be a good fit please feel free to query me! I’m still working through my QM inbox so thanks in advance for your patience.

#MSWL #kidlitart - Author-illustrators and illustrators, I'm looking for: - Narrative potential - Emotion and expressiveness - Art representative of our diverse world - Strong compositions and page turns - Dynamic movement - in line and/or characters
