I would love a YA love story with the meet cute of WHEN DIMPLE MET RISHI and Black main characters who have the celebratory feeling of Beyonce headlining Coachella. #MSWL

Can you write a great ensemble? Victoria Schwab and Leigh Bardugo are the masters, and I will forever be looking for talent who can write a group dynamic. If Jessica Cluess's HOUSE OF DRAGONS were out, I'd point you to that as a great example. (Look for it in May 2020!) #MSWL

Have you read WORDS ON BATHROOM WALLS? A journal to the main character's therapist had me hooked from the first page! I love when author's really think about structure and PoV. Letters and journals can be so revealing. 💌 #MSWL

Looking for BIPOC and white LGBTQ+ contemporary and fantasy authors with strong hooks in the query and an uplifting vibe. YA and MG alike. Graphic novels too, please! #MSWL

I love an author who can tell a story with a tight timeline. DATE ME, BRYSON KELLER had a two-week romantic arc and THIS IS MY AMERICA had the mc's father on death row with less than a year left. Send me your stories where the stakes are high and the clock is ticking! ⌛️💣Is your mc living a lie? I'm fascinated by stories where the main character has a deep secret, even if it's MG! #MSWL
