I'd love to see more friendship stories in my inbox about women of color, in the vein of FIONA AND JANE by Jean Chen Ho! #MSWL

Nerd Girl Says @Rachael_Conrad
Just want to reiterate that we rarely see detective characters in films and TV shows who are sweet and kind to the people that they are helping and not just hardboiled jerks who desperately need therapy and that’s part of the reason why Benoit Blanc is so great in Knives Out. pic.twitter.com/fXJEdGD6DJI, too, love friendly and likable detectives! #MSWL

Okay, De Blasio’s issues aside for a sec, a group of people tried to rent a house only to find out the *Mayor of New York* owns it?? Make them all unlikely friends and this goes on my #MSWL newyorker.com/magazine/2020/…

The middle grade in my query inbox has dropped off a lot the past few months. Please send me your middle grade, folks! Especially contemporary and #ownvoices! #MSWL #amquerying

While things are rough in 2020, our era in horror (writers, readers, filmmakers, artists, musicians) has fully arrived. We're here.As a reminder, now is a great moment for horror and I am always looking for it! #MSWL

Knives Out was one of my favs this past year, and I would love to see more books like that: murder mystery/detective stories or really any classic subgenre with a contemporary, socially conscious twist. #MSWL

I love absorbing commercial fiction with a morbid or dark underpinning. Think @melaniecantor's fabulous Death and Other Happy Endings. #MSWL

Literary Agent
#mswl I'd love to see some contemporary fiction centering on adult friend groups who have known each other since high school/college.

Would love to see more #ownvoices middle grade queries! #mswl

I'd love to see more contemporary mysteries with sympathetic protagonists, ordinary people with good humor who are pushed into dark situations. Think Rear Window or Tana French's The Witch Elm. #mswl
