YA Horror ghost stories are life. If it doesnβt make your skin crawl while writing it, I donβt want it. #MSWL #paranormalactivity

Also, I just saw the trailer for Bird Box with Sandra Bullock and I will totally be all about that comp title for any incoming YA or MG manuscripts. #MSWL

Just had a talk with one of my beloved editor friends and weβre both dying for some WOLVES. Not werewolves, but like Game of Thrones wolves in YA or MG. WHO HAS THIS? Because we need it. Desperately. #MSWL

#MSWL YA futuristic Sci-Fi, much like Westworld, or maybe something like Pacific Rim! :)

#MSWL I'm still looking for this gem: Maybe a YA fantasy about the lowly shop sweeper or something? Give me a literal "nobody" and make her story remarkable w/o royalty.

#MSWL I have LITERALLY been begging for YA Fantasy rooted in a Native American tribe's mythology. If any native writers feel confident enough to send me their work, I'd be so happy to read it!

#MSWL As always, I'm so in love with YA. Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Contemporary, Historical, etc.. The things I'm not all that into are actually time travel (in any age range) and alternate dimensions (as of right now...little tired of them...).

#MSWL Historical Fiction in YA! I'm so in love with Ruby from Cold Mountain. I love her voice and if you could put that into a YA Gunslinger Girl in Colonial times, I'd be so in love. <3

Also, I've started watching Reign, and I hate to admit it but I really miss court intrigue and historical YA. π But can I get Greer's story being in love with the cook instead of Mary, Queen of Scots royalty like story? Greer is definitely my favorite romance. #MSWL

I'm still running on U.K. time, so I'm a little exhausted, but I'm super excited to be at the Hilton and getting prepped and ready for #WDC18 #pitchSlam tomorrow! If you have MG, YA, or Adult romance, fantasy, futuristic sci-fi, or anything on my #MSWL, come pitch me tomorrow!

Seriously, Brooklyn is my new favorite movie and it makes me so happy every time I turn it on. I ordered it on DVD on 2-day delivery just so I can bring it to the U.K. With me and force @writerShanna to watch it. π Anyone have a YA historical like this? #MSWL
Literary Agent
Currently watching Brooklyn and taking a break from work, and OMG I'M LOVING THIS MOVIE!! π Why am I such a romantic slub recently? I love this. Can I have a Historical like it?! PLEASE?! #MSWL YA or Adult, I totally don't care. πππ
Literary Agent
You know what'd be cool to see more of in YA Fantasy? Mythologies no one has read before, like the hundreds of Native American tribes, or the 54 countries and thousands of tribes within Africa, or Haittian or Persian or Hittite. Something that can open our eyes and minds. #MSWL

So, fortunately and unfortunately, I have SO MANY fantasy and sci-fi projects that I've signed and that I still have to read and decide, which means I'll probably only like maybe one or two #sffpit pitches today. I'm sorry! But the rest of #TeamCorvisiero will be out in force! pic.twitter.com/INYAOgs8jGIn addition to this, I'm looking for some great YA and adult contemporaries and contemporary romances! π Also, I'm still on the lookout for a MG author to add to #TheFellowship! β€οΈ So if you have something that matches my #MSWL, shoot me a query with the MSWL mention! π

when tom holland finally meets ryan reynolds pic.twitter.com/kTHyo09OwMCan I just have a deadpool-like character in a sci-fi or fantasy? Please? It can be YA! I just need this type of humor in my life. #mswl

Thanks to @whitleyabell, I'm now dying for a fantastical YA Harley Quinn retelling. #MSWL Someone send me this, please! pic.twitter.com/pcDbDtMedYShe's pretty badass, right? #MSWL It fits, and I still want! twitter.com/YAFantasyFan/sβ¦
