Today's a good day to add that if you are a trans femme/trans woman with a completed YA manuscript in need of a #PitchWars mentor, I'd love to hear from you!(I mean, all trans people welcome, but I'd especially love to see more trans femmes/trans women in trad pubbed YA)
I would love to work with trans femmes / trans women authors. Consider this call an exception to my closed submissions. #mswl
#mswl indigenous authors writing their own stories 💚
i am still closed and catching up on lots of reading, but.... if you have a YA or MG with monsters rooted in underrepresented mythologies/cultures/folklore/history (#ownvoices only please)... well, i'd like to see that. can be fantasy or contemporary! #mswl
as i said, i am very much behind on queries/reading, but as i think this might be a long shot and it's super on my mind right now, i'm gonna put it out into the universe:
#mswl for #ownvoices BIPOC BPD YA 💚

-FUNNY stuff
-larger-than-life narrative voice
-MG fantasy series
-character ensembles
-YA after high school about teens not going to college
-family stories
-something that feels like a bottle episode
#mswl
#MSWL in-this-moment:
- Fun MG fantasy with secondary non-human characters
- LOL MG and YA
- Undeniable VOICE
- Ensemble casts
- Monsters
- MG with non "trad" parents/guardians
anxiety has been making it hard to focus very well, but i will say that in addition to the rest of my #MSWL i am also highly motivated to read more LOL MG fantasy adventure. have a few fantastic mss in my queue and would add some more… :)

YA about moving on from high school! Anything about college admissions, the summer after senior year, freshman year of college (or of life) #mswlI’d also love books with teens who elect not to go to college at all #mswl

when i updated my website, i also updated my wishlist! please bookmark this for the new year, when i finally, at long last, reopen to queries! #mswl #amquerying #querytipbethphelan.com/submission-wis…
i will add that top of my #MSWL is: laughing. i don't mean chuckling. i mean i want to LOL. more so with voice than silliness but i'd love to see more of it in general in my submissions. :)

Catching up on subs and i notice i have excellent YA here, but not much MG! #mswl WHEN I REOPEN: I really want to work on more MG! Commercial or literary—give me your big series hooks, magic, light and fun contemporary, hopeful stories touching on tough topics, queer characters!!
#mswl queer poc teen friend groups
if anyone has a MG or YA with a PROTAGONIST who has ADHD, i'd love to see it. in particular, a type that isn't the more commonly associated hyperactive but features the inattentiveness, procrastination, disorganized thoughts, etc. would be open to realistic or fantasy #MSWL
technically closed to queries but aching for more submissions from Native / Indigenous authors, MG or YA, of course. send my way with “Native voice” in the subject line 💚💚 #mswl #amquerying
#mswl for social justice topics in MG <3
