My Manuscript Wish List®
Erinn Pascal joined Andrews McMeel Universal in 2021. Prior to AMU, she held editorial positions at Scholastic, Disney, and Simon & Schuster, where she worked on brands such as Minnie Mouse, Peppa Pig, Disney Princess, LEGO, and Batman. Erinn grew up in Pembroke Pines, FL and graduated with a BFA in Writing, Literature & Publishing from Emerson College in Boston, MA. At AMU, Erinn manages the kids’ publishing list. She’s most interested in uplifting creators and their authentic visions, from licensed kids’ cookbooks to middle grade graphic novels to activity books to everything in-between. When she’s not editing, Erinn can be found defending the Star Wars prequels; “vegan”-izing family Colombian and Jewish recipes; taking her mini Bernedoodle, Obi, to the dog park; doing Pilates; or browsing the local farmer’s market for fresh veggies (baby cauliflower is her favorite).
A SELECTION OF ERINN’S LIST: Neopets: The Official Cookbook; the Gamer Girls middle grade series; the Meems & Feefs graphic novels; the Afro Unicorn graphic novels; the Fry Guys series

Vital Info
I’d like the next…
All things middle grade! Erinn decided to be a book editor when she was 8, and she’s still 8, it seems. Graphic novels for ages 8-12 or 6-10; MG fiction (bonus points if a series or with illustrated potential); fun nonfiction (think: happy news, or a dog poop identification kit); licensed brands; new and underrepresented creators/stories. Erinn has a particular interest in neurodiverse stories and working with neurodiverse, BIPOC, and disabled creators.
My favorites include…
Oh, where to begin? Star Wars, especially if it’s debating the intricacies of the prequels; anything Studio Ghibli; Pokemon; Neopets (d’oh!), Game of Thrones (if season 8 had a rewrite); Animal Crossing; sci-fi like The Expanse and Lost in Space.
