Just heard about #PitBLK today. Everyone welcome to query me if they think I am a good fit (info: keyesagency.com/submissions/). Desperate to fall in love with something right now!

One thing I was thinking about this weekend while watching "Only Murders in the Building" is that I'd like more MG set in apartment buildings. It's just a way to force disparate people to interact. Genre doesn't mater. "Attack the Block" is another fun example. #mswl.

#mswl MG or YA NF on "lies" taught in schools (particularly interested in the Civil War, myself. Immigration also a good topic). In honor of James Loewen.

And, like everyone other publishing person in the world, I would like more graphic novels. (There were two I was very excited about that went to other agents. Sad trombone.) Particularly about MG kids doing fun things? This is vague. #mswl

Watching the History Channel show ALONE. Reminds me I still looking for a female survival story (MG preferable but YA also maybe). Like MY SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN or HATCHET. #mswlOr maybe like CASTAWAY. This idea of being alone for so long is particularly interesting to me now. #mswl

Been thinking about how I would like a YA or MG at an all girl's school. But not a fancy one. Supernatural elements welcome but not necessary. #mswl

I want fantasy (ya or adult) about a woman leading a country or empire. How does she do it? How does she overcome those who doubt her? #mswl

A YA or MG about a kid opposing the school board or local official. Maybe about banned books. And family supporting him/her. #MSWL
