Okay I am totally stealing this from @SarahGrill1, but anything that feels like CLUE, THE WESTING GAME, or KNIVES OUT from a diverse POV, send it my way. Adult or YA. #mswl

SOMEONE. WRITE THIS. FOR ME. #mswl

Who will write this for us?! #mswl

Spooky houses- I want them! MG, YA, and Adult! #mswl

Who wants to do this for us?! #mswl

I know this is super vague but I want to read a young adult manuscript that engages with that weird feeling of nostalgia you get before your life has even really changed. #mswl

Diverse! Graphic! Novels! For! MG! and! YA! #mswl

I'm not able to participate in #PitDark but if you're querying:

Spooky MG
YA or Adult dark fantasy
YA or Adult suspense/thriller
YA or Adult horror

Consider this a request! #mswl

I’m really looking forward to #KidLitGN! I’ll be looking for MG + YA graphic novels from authors and author/illustrators. I love realism and magic and science and horror—I love it all! I’m also particularly keen to find projects from diverse creators! #mswl

I would like to read a YA RomCom set in the time of corona. You have to make it work while still having them behave safely (masks! 6ft apart!). Anybody working on this? #mswl

WAIT! I forgot something that I am absolutely craving: graphic novels for MG + YA!!!!! #gn #mswl

4. LatinX representation in kidlit- all ages, all genres, though I am particularly interested in finding a YA contemp & a MG fantasy! A few favorites: @LauraTNamey, @Nina_Writes, @acevedowrites, @djolder, and @CeliaCPerez. (You should be reading *all* of them!)

3. RomCom - Adult or YA. I want laugh out loud, swoony, sexy, joyful reads. I loved RWRB and The Hating Game on the Adult side, To All the Boys and Gentleman's Guide on the YA side. But really, I'm happy to read anything that's truly Rom AND Com. #mswl

I’m only open to queries for a few more days (closing 8/15!). Here is what is at the top of my wishlist:

-High concept middle grade
-LatinX YA
-kidlit graphic novels
-Adult RomCom w a great hook
-Adult female driven suspense + thrillers

#mswl

I’m putting this into the universe:

✨ the project I would most like to find right now is a LatinX graphic novel for MG or YA. #mswl ✨

If you are querying a MG or YA graphic novel, especially if you are an author-illustrator, I'd love to see it. #PitMad #BVM #MSWL

I’d like to read a YA about a high school journalist. Something with a major, timely hook and a killer voice. #mswl

Saying it again....I’m looking for a diverse, MG or YA graphic novel by an author or an author/ illustrator! #mswl

Rounding up a few #mswl tweets that I will now think of as my official #QuarantineMSWL (1/?)

I still really really really want a LatinX YA RomCom! #mswl
