(YA/MG genre continued) Like with contemporary, I am especially interested in queer, disabled, and BIPOC protagonists, especially when the books are not issue driven. But above all give me a good, page turning adventure. #mswl

For YA and MG genre, I love genre fiction with fast pacing and high stakes. I am generally not preferential to any specific genre as long as the rules of the genre are respected and understood.... #mswl

(YA/MG contemp continued) I am especially interested in queer, disabled, and BIPOC protagonists, especially when the books are not issue driven. #mswl

For YA & MG contemp., I love fiction where the main character has average, everyday challenges and we see how they overcome them. I love books that are lighthearted and emotionally driven.... #mswl

I want the MG or YA book about a junior handler in dog shows.

My family comes from the dog show world, so it's near and dear to my heart. #MSWL

I'm on a happy middle-grade kick, (you can thank @bytrishakelly for that). So send me all of your light hearted and playful #MG please #MSWL

#mswl

I want MTV’s new show Drag My Dad as a middle grade book #MSWL #MG

Send me real kids with real problems in your #mg or #ya contemporary #MSWL

Would also love a YA or MG book about Alan Turing please #MSWL

No more dark #mentalhealth manuscripts. I want the characters to struggle with other things but their mental health to be a given reality that they cope with. #MG #YA #MSWL

Send me all the happy, healthy family #MG, like Finding Audrey by Sophie Kinsella but Middle Grade. #MSWL

I'd rather you all know what to do before you send a query than get passed over because it doesn't make sense for the genre or age group. #MSWL #amwriting #amquerying #litagent #mg

Can I get some Ace and Aro stories? Also a Queer Middle Grade Detective series? a la Nancy Drew? #mswl #mg

Send me the all the rom-com, feel good, lovey-dovery (technical publishing term) #YA and #MG #MSWL

Please send me some light, happy, contemporary middle-grade and YA. I need lighter manuscripts in my inbox #MG #YA #MSWL

Pitch me your queer #MG here if you want

#MSWL

And can’t it be falling in love with someone in class on the first day? Or rival AYSO soccer teams with goalies who fall in love? That’s sounds great #MSWL

Send me all the gayest #MG because it’s what I needed in my childhood for sure
