@bookishchick Hi Kelly, just wondering what kinds of novels you'd like to see, do you handle crime thrillers and fantasy and/or science fiction? All the best for 2022!Hi! My #mswl is linked in my twitter profile and can be found here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/kell…
Right now I'm mostly repping Children's fiction, specifically YA and MG, with a few exceptions.

Friends, please recommend me YA romances with dorky, awkward, and/or dim male love interests like Soren from The Dragon Prince or Ron Stoppable from Kim Possible or Jason Mendoza from The Good Place.Where oh where are our dumb hot jocks with hearts of gold?! #mswl

I know this story is at least a year old, but since that society scammer girl was recently found guilty it reminded me: I very much want a YA spin on this type of con. #mswl

If you can write me a YA When Harry Met Sally, both thematically and structurally, I will love you forever #MSWLYES! Please do justice to the Carrie Fisher character. #mswl

I'm still closed to queries, but just so you know for when I open back up, I'm on a serious conartist kick. Give me your liars, your card sharks, your stolen identities, your heists, your thieves, your most persuasive criminals. YA and maybe MG. #mswl

Thread alert: so I go on what I think might be a date with a guy my friends set me up on on my birthday (yes it's a bit hazy).This is amazing! A YA version is definite #mswl

I want a book that's reminiscent of Top Chef, Great British Bake Off, or Pushing Daisies.Or features restaurants or bakeries, or home cooking. If you've got a food-heavy YA or MG in any genre, gimme! #mswl

I am still on the hunt for my ideal YA contemporary. Something with humor and heart, a great voice, and deeply personal stakes. #mswl

Also, YA Orphan Black is still very much on my #mswl so if you've got girls + science + suspense + queer romance + found family: gimme

Witchy books in YA. The Craft. Practical Magic. Willow & Tara from Buffy. Contemporary or straight-up fantasy. #MSWL

A character arc that rivals that of Zuko in Avatar: The Last Airbender. YA or MG. #MSWL
Literary Agent
YA with a diverse ensemble (each with a distinct voice) that has to come together to achieve a common goal. #MSWL

YA Orphan Black is a major #MSWL for me. Kickass, capable girls. Found family. Thought-provoking sff. Flawed people. Action and wit.
