Just finished amazon.com/American-Betiy… by @ADRajurkar1. Loved it! My #MSWL for protagonists that are children of immigrants.

As a female engineer I am looking for middle grade, YA and PB about girls in STEM. All genres. Who achieve their goals thru bravery and not necessarily confidence. I want some real models not role models for our young women. #mswl #WritingCommnunity

Finishing Home Baked by Alia Volz makes me hungry (no pun intended) for more memoirs of remarkable people, extraordinary lives and eccentric stories. Especially from diverse backgrounds. #mswl

Starting in January I will be accepting nonfiction queries in addition to YA. Send me your memoirs, pop culture, food, lifestyle, true crime, narrative, or any combo of the above! #MSWL #Nonfiction #WritingCommunity

Sometimes I don't know what I want until I see it. So feel free to send your YA novel even if it doesn't fit any of the above.

Anything that can be compared to Leigh Bardugo or AS King. Two of my favorite authors.
