the best YA feels
✨specific enough that it's speaking to teens now, using their lexicon, understanding their concerns, but also
✨universal enough to evoke a sense of nostalgia, a yearning to comfort your past teen self

in keeping with the theme of incoherent uncertainty, let me close with this: the more sure you are about your teenaged self, or your teenaged characters, and their own certainty, the more I think you need to reflect on your life, and revise your novel

i love this and agree 100%. let teens be confused and unsure and inconsistent in their thoughts and feelings and decision-making in YA because that👏🏽is👏🏽how👏🏽teens👏🏽are👏🏽 #mswl

I try not to talk about my own books, but one thing I'm proud of is writing about characters who are exploring their sexuality & gender identities. I think it's as important to show chars who are still questioning as it is to show chars who own their identities. Especially in YA.

yes yes YES #mswl

my first best friend was a dude and i was never in love with him and he was never in love with me! gasp! i am infusing this dynamic in my next WIP because 100% platonic m/f friendships are a thing i would love to see more of in YA 🙌🏻
