Hey writers! Iβd love to see more MG and YA, esp mysteries (love Mrytle Hardcastle and TRULY DEVIOUS series), spooky horror (witches over splatterpunk), and character-driven commercial (like Jenny Han or Ash Van Otterloo). #MSWL

-More nonfiction in MG and YA, esp science, art, history, etc. NF graphic novels are great here too.
-I'd love to see more mysteries, in MG, YA, and adult. I'm really into Veronica Speedwell and Veronica Mars.
-More intergenerational stories in MG, YA, and SFF. #MSWL
Literary Agent
-More underrepresented creators, esp creators of color and disabled creators, telling #ownvoices and stories from the margins that need to be shared. #MSWL
-More stories that show the range of experiences of black and brown people, especially in MG and YA.

And how does #DiverseJewishKidLit play into #futureofJewishbooks? I'd like to see more books by Jews of color, more books by observant Jews published in the mainstream, and more books about Jews. In general. Where we aren't dying. *extremely pointed look at YA publishing*Yes please #mswl

Obviously interracial relationships don't end racism but tbh I would really love more MG/YA with interracial friendships & romances that don't involve white pplMore of my friends growing up were POC than not even though (or possibly because?) I lived in very white areas
Agreed 1000%. @MekishaTelfer and I were talking about this. #mswl forever

Friday is a perfect day for some #MSWL updates! I'd love to see darker, edgier projects, both for MG and YA. Fantasy and more realistic.
