Agents, if you have a “problem book” where you and the author are like is this adult or is this YA, everyone seems to think differently, I WANT IT

#mswl ok so I really love the trope of the Plot to Lose Our Virginity because it's such a real pressure many teens feel + is a great setup for hijinx BUT would love to see a version where the protag discovers they're ace & intentionally remains a virgin ("virgin") & embraces it

So you know how in every “I saw my future” plot the future’s either horrible or miserable and the protag has to do some soul searching to avoid it? #mswl where the future is GREAT but then one thing in the present happens differently and the character has to scramble to fix it

“Clean Teen” books? 🤔

Seems to be code for “straight” imo, or at the very least “isn’t it great how they’re gay but it’s not, like, a big deal!” plus no sex/cursing/drugs/drinking. SO, new #mswl: write me a “clean teen” book with a SUPER QUEER mc that I can rub in their faces.
