A story you can describe in a single sentence that hooks someone’s attention, & with the depth that keeps them hooked throughout #MSWL

If your MS *does* fit something specific on my #MSWL, still use bit.ly/1lwwcYD, + include #MSWL in Subject line.

Always: Your MS mustn't fit exact specifications of #MSWL - if you have a *great* YA or MG, send it! Sub guidelines: bit.ly/1lwwcYD

#MSWL contemporary YA with a smart girl and a strong mom. (Yes, I'm binge-watching GG on Netflix.) pic.twitter.com/LmEddypGMbMC who cares more about learning (& eventually conquering the world) than popularity/looks #MSWL #Rorygoals

Fantasy YA, but feels like a realistic world. Sharp, humorous retellings with empowered girl protagonists, à la Gail Carson Levine #MSWLOh how I'd love to help bring a new ELLA ENCHANTED to the world! #MSWL
