Starting to teach my course on Indo- European Folktales next week at Pitt. Reminder: I 'd love retellings of all cultures' folktales. #MSWL

After seeing the preview at @RowHouseCinema, I now want a Graphic Novel like "The Girl Without Hands" movie. #MSWL youtu.be/ANbYvxpqx8A

For Middle Grade I would love a series like "Die Schule der magischen Tiere" for the US market. #MSWL @carlsen_verlag

Recently, I have become obsessed with graphic novels. I would love to receive queries for YA, and MG, graphic novels! #MSWL

Picture Books: I have been obsessed with Love Is by Diane Adams. I like to cry uncontrollably... Or laugh uncontrollably #MSWL

MG: Fantasy OR funny contemporary #MSWL

YA Fantasy (think Caraval) #MSWL

In nonfiction : Popular Science, as well as Pop Culture. #MSWL

OK, here are some updates for my, #MSWL: Adult Psychological Suspense (think Patricia Highsmith)

If anyone can pull off a GENIUS psychological thriller like this one, I will want to represent it. #MSWL

I want my own Caraval-like fantasy. An enchanting world, shocking plot twists, and an engaging sibling relationship. #MSWL

I could really use some great nonfiction. I don't care if it's for YA, MG, PB, or Adult. #MSWL

In non-fiction, be it for adults or kids, I would love to LEARN. Widen my horizons. Teach me about different cultures, beliefs. #MSWL

In non-fiction, be it for adults or kids, I would love to LEARN. Teach me something I don't know. Enlighten me. #MSWL

So when I re-open to queries again next week, THAT is what I want: GREAT books. Make me laugh or cry or fear or give me hope. #MSWL #query

OK, I have a book that just knocked off CARAVAL as my favorite book. SIX FOUR is the best book I've read in years. Mind blowing. #MSWL

. @UweStenderPhD loss,yearning, friendship,and melancholy remains in my heart till today.I would love a novel with those "ingredients" #MSWL

Just send me a great YA or MG novel. What do I consider great? Caraval, Girl Defective, Wonder, Never Ever, Eleanor and Park. #MSWL

I would love a YA Fantasy novel derived from fairytales or folktales. #MSWL
