A random #mswl in advance of our #AskUpstart AMA on Tuesday: I'd love to see a modern day YA reboot of The Legend of Billie Jean. #fairisfair

Thinking about my #mswl how I'd like to see more funny young women characters in YA.

Russian Doll is an AMAZING SHOW. It got me thinking about my #MSWL. I'd love to see a Groundhog Day-esque YA. It could be a rom com. It could be dark and twisty.

In my query inbox today, looking for projects that spark joy. I'm in the mood for voice-driven #mg and #ya stories that break my heart while making me laugh out loud. #MSWL #amreadingqueries #amagenting

A repelling yet compelling female YA protagonist, like in Ottessa Moshfegh's MY YEAR OF REST AND RELAXATION. #mswl

Likable YA and MG characters who do unlikable things. Think Donna Tartt's Theo in the Goldfinch. #mswl

More #MSWL notes in advance of #AskUpstart on Tue! Spooky, lyrical YA (think CHIME by Franny Billingsley).
