A very dark fairy tale retelling for YA. Think "The Bloody Chamber" by Angela Carter in novel-form for a slightly younger audience. #MSWL

I want to read YA with authentic voice, unique characters, and page-turning plot. #MSWL

I’d particularly love to see more #ownvoices queries for YA and MG books!!! #MSWL

For fiction, I am looking for #kidlit projects. YA and MG. Eager to add new clients to my list for these categories. #MSWL

Topics that combine feminism and pop culture are my jam. 💃🏻 #MSWL

An unusual take on vegan cooking or DIY projects. #MSWL

To get even more specific, I’d love to see proposals about the history of a pop culture topic. Topics related to tarot and astrology. #MSWL

I’m searching for exciting nonfiction in the following categories: pop culture, science, design, and lifestyle. #MSWL

I should probably share my #MSWL! I'm eagerly looking for more #kidlit clients, so please send me a query if you think we're a match!

Definitely still looking for this! All other genres of MG as well. Fun, inventive stories with diverse characters and settings. #MSWL

Nonfiction (for adult or children): geeky things, pop culture obsessions, science, history of a thing, lifestyle for millennials. #MSWL

Overall, for YA, I'm looking for something ~FUN~. Not issue-driven. High concept. #MSWL

Contemporary YA that involves a modern-day version of the T-Birds or Pink Ladies. #MSWL

YA involving fringe science in a contemporary setting. #MSWL

Psychological horror for YA. Terrify me. #MSWL

YA with a protagonist like Blaine Anderson (Glee): slightly nerdy, hopeless romantic, perfectionist, angsty. #MSWL

Eerie mystery for YA. Unusual structure or elements. Think NIGHT FILM for a younger market. #MSWL

Dark, feminist fairy tale retelling. The Bloody Chamber by Angela Carter for YA (novel though, not stories). #MSWL

Contemporary YA from the POV of the bad boy. Ex: Sebastian (Glee) or maybe even Chuck Bass (GG) without the problematic rape subplot. #MSWL

A really good contemporary YA romance. F/F, M/F, M/M, or even non-binary — don't care, as long as the chemistry is good. #MSWL
