Dear YA Publishing: there is a podcast called Teenager Therapy made BY teens about BEING teens. If we want our books to appeal to teens, then what is better than checking out a show allll about how they feel, from their own minds?(#MSWL a YA about a group of friends making something cool like this)

I'm still looking for my YA mystery that reads like Brick - bonus points if the protagonist is LGBTQ+ ! #MSWL

I am especially interested in finding more SF! I love both literary SF that could be marketed to both non-genre and genre reading audiences, and more commercial SF with knowledgeable worldbuilding that asks big, human questions (ala the Expanse series) #MSWL

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I am almost completely caught up on queries. This means I'm HUNGRY. So even though it's not an official #MSWL day, in this thread I'm going to link to old wishlist items I still want and add some new ones!Overall I'm craving unique takes on magic and worldbuilding, protagonists who struggle to acquire their ultimately hard-won skillsets, gorgeous prose, and narratives that ask topical questions or reframe old ones - especially from under-repped voices. #MSWL

hi this is a YA. #superstoreTeen quits Walmart job over the store’s intercom: ‘Attention all shoppers ... nobody should work here — ever’ chicagotribune.com/business/ct-bi…
This just reaffirms my desire for a YA Superstorw-esque contemporary 😍 #MSWL

I want a book about a character like Ambrose Spellman--kind, gifted, tortured, and definitely queer af. #mswl pic.twitter.com/osCH2n4ICuHe is the only good thing about that show and there is nowhere near enough of him #MSWL
