I think there is a desperate need to fill the upper middle grade/young YA space.

I also think there's a desperate need for young middle grade that is much shorter to transition readers from chapter books to MG. I so rarely see subs in that space. We need to fix that.

Writers, if you have something that will fit this description, please query me! #WritingCommunity #amquerying #MSWL

Looking for both YA and adult contemporary stories of #ownvoices and #POC. Raw, honest voices. Real emotions, with a commercial hook. Please query me. I am always, always on the hunt for great storytellers. #MSWL

Here's a fun idea, #MSWL - a modern YA take on the 1999 movie, Jawbreaker, featuring a big cast of characters, with unique & complicated backstories. Something happens by accident, what will they do?

YA + WF that present a hook in the first couple of pages. Pacey delivery. Strong voices. And conflict that is deep and emotional. #MSWL
