📚 OGNs: I'm primarily looking for MG/YA graphic novels (preference for author/illustrator, but open to author-only!) As far as what I'm looking for, everything above applies here!

📚 MG: I love kids getting into trouble and have to get out of said trouble before their parents get home!

Unless it's a madcap adventure novel *or* kids navigating their queerness, I'm really not looking for contemporary middle grade.

📚 MG: Three things I'll probably always be looking for:
1. Adventure novel with a humorous voice
2. creepy and lyrical horror a la coraline.
3. queer first crush (if it makes you think of the short 'in a heartbeat' I want to see it.)

My turn on the @bookendslit #MSWL train! When I reopen to queries I want all the kidlit: graphic novels and all your LGBT narratives from PB through YA! Swoon worthy rom coms and heartbreaking stories all welcome.

#MSWL - #MG: I'm still on the hunt for a MG that's like 'In a Heartbeat'. I want that queer first-crush book. Figuring out who your MC is as a person, be it who they "like" or if their birth gender isn't what they truly are. Your challenge: make me cry.

#MSWL - #MG: I will always want more creepy AF middle grade. Always and forever. Give me lyrical voices and atmosphere for *days* and I will love you. Ghost stories with a twist. Creepy carnivals. Alternate worlds a la Coraline. GIMME GIMME PLZ.

It's only been forever and a day but I finally updated my #MSWL profile! Now including select genres of narrative non-fiction — and basically send me all your queer fiction or creepy, lyrical middle grade books! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/moe-…

These are the books I love across MG (especially!) and also YA. #MSWL

Where are my dark and creepy MG novels in my inbox? Come on guys. I need them all. Comp it to CORALINE and I’ll be a happy camper. Dream worlds, carnivals. Make it dark and make it lyrical. #mswl

Me personally, I'm always looking for MG contemporary and fantasy genres. I'd really love to find my creepy coraline-esque book as well as a first crush LGBT book (a la the animated short 'In a Heartbeat') #AskAgent #MSWL

It's true! I'm open to queries so hit me with your best shot: querymanager.com/query/mferrara

Not only that—but I'm now open to picture books! My list is definitely children's focused in PB, MG, and YA -- but I'm selectively looking at Adult SFF and romance! #MSWL

Which the reminder to send me all the LGBT+ books for MG and YA once I reopen for queries in September! #MSWL

Guys, I’d really love to see some more MG/YA Contemporaries in my inbox. #MSWL

Tons of stuff on my updated #MSWL wishlist — MG, YA, Adult AND I’m open to NF on a limited basis! #MSWLMadness #BookEnds

With The Breakfast Club on in the background today, I’d love a SciFi/Fantasy themed Breakfast Club (MG or YA only!) #MSWL

Oh my god, the simpsons Coralisa is giving me life from Treehouse of Terror. Coraline is love. (Where’s my MG lyrical creepy book?) #MSWL

This Halloween - send me all your spooky/horror MG and YA novels (but no jump scares as I AM a wimp!) #MSWL

I also still REALLY want my MG where a boy has his first crush on another boy book. (Think Pixar's In A Heartbeat) #MSWL
