#mswl I’d love some YA, MG, and or Adult Adventure … heists, treasures, puzzles, rom-venture! Think Heist Society, Inheritance Game, Lost City, Indiana Jones, etc.

#MSWL TV show edition! Psychological thrillers, suspense, horror, mystery. Adult and YA. magic welcome. Things that feel bottled-up and breathless with all the unrevealed secrets... SEVERENCE, PIECES OF HER, YELLOW JACKETS, KNIVES OUT.

Eternally here for YA Rosemary's Baby. Not in the super-natural sense, but in the social horror sense. #MSWL

Are any of my YA role models working on a book about the dangers of suburban white boys being recruited for extremist ideals over video games and Reddit? Because there need to be A LOT of books about it. @LitAgentMarini @halseanderson @JasonReynolds83 @angiecthomas @AcevedoWrites#MSWL y'all 👇👇👇

Also #MSWL High-concept YA contemporary or historical with easily digested strong hooks (light or dark). Everything from HEIST SOCIETY to SAVE THE DATE to WE WERE LIARS...

#MSWL YA Historical Mystery! Whether it's fun & funny (think MISS FISHER) gothic, noir, procedural or lawless... get at me!

I have a lot of feelings about using need as a metric by which to judge works of art, particularly those that represent marginalized voices. So if you're concerned that teens may no longer "need" your marginalized rep. YA, no worries. That's still on my #MSWL
Literary Agent
A big congrats to @RyanDouglas and huge thanks for the phrase "YA Social Thriller" which is a thing eternally on my #MSWL and I never knew how to describe it until now! @renarossner @PWKidsBookshelf
