Mysteries and thrillers are a category I want to move into (particularly in YA) but I am more drawn to character driven stories than one that focus on a huge plot twist. This will likely be more commercial or upmarket fiction than strict genre mysteries. #MSWL

I am primarily looking for Adult and Young Adult projects this year! While I do a little bit of everything, these are the areas I am most hoping to build out. All of the following genres and #MSWL's will apply to both adult and YA projects!

I’ve also been looking for a YA friendship breakup story for years. Do you have it? I want to see it please. #mswl

If you have a kidlit or YA version of crip camp I want it real baaaaaad #mswl

I hope to continue to see excellent YA mysteries and thrillers, Romance and Big Friendship stories (or any intersection of the two that permeates high school!), MG adventure and sleuths, and historical fiction that tackles big issues in very personal and direct ways #mswl

I am also very interested in MG or YA Non-Fiction that delves into cultural movements led by and for teens #mswl

My latest #MSWL is for imaginative and innovative MG and YA Non-Fiction. Take me beyond straight biographies time period overviews. I want to see people playing with form, topic and language

I'm on the hunt for a juicy and high concept Contemporary YA. Bring on those big hooks! #mswl

I would love to see a YA (or upper MG) that focuses on the teen activist movement. Whether contemporary or historical, I want to see honest portrayals of how teens organize and mobilize. #MSWL

In kidlit more broadly (PB-YA) I am on the hunt for more NF that teaches and inspires in a fun accessible way. I lean towards non-fiction that focuses on a specific event or person, that really digs in to give us a clear picture as opposed to broad themes #MSWL

My biggest #mswl of late is a fresh take on a YA thriller. Give me a new format, big stakes, characters who take agency over their circumstances and flip all expectations (think SADIE or GENUINE FRAUD)

#MSWL YA/MG mysteries featuring an ensemble cast!

I would love to see more psychological thrillers (in both YA and WF) #mswl

YA stories about how fast life can unravel, and characters figuring out how to weave it back together #mswl

Also always looking for YA and MG with unabashedly smart girls (no matter their chosen field) #mswl

Also! If I don't request but you think we'd jive, please query me! (looking for all types of YA/MG, Thrillers, WF. Check out my #MSWL pg!

Another "gimme now please" would be buddy cop mysteries/heists YA, MG, Adult, I'll take it all #mswl

Also give me some heists! Adult, YA, or MG. #mswl
