#MSWL When I eventually reopen to queries, I want to see all the middle grade manuscripts about girls burning with anger at injustice in the world and how they’re fighting back, especially by and about POC and other marginalized groups.

Incredible thread on how nature has been reclaiming stretches of land in France that have been uninhabitable since WWI.

Now for an #MSWL: A post-apocalyptic story set in a place like this could be amazing. There's something eerily beautiful yet sinister in those photos. MG/YA

I need to get off Twitter before I'm sucked in by the temptation that is #DVpit. I'm closed to submissions atm because I'm so behind on reading requested ms, but when I reopen (TBD), I'd best be seeing some of these in my query inbox. (kidlit only: YA, MG, PB) #MSWL

A middle grade novel adaptation of this story would be amazing. I mean, that suspense. . . #mswl

Ooh, this sounds fantastic (in YA/MG). #MSWL

#MSWL Like, seriously. I would lol for an MG Frankie Landau-Banks. Maybe not kill, but it might get bloody if another agent tries to take it from me. *puts on brass knuckles*

A couple of #MSWL before I head off to bed for the night: Always at the top of my list is children's nonfiction, MG and YA in particular.

Make it a YA or MG and I am SOLD. #MSWL

I fully support this. Also, if you've got something similar in YA/MG, HIT ME WITH IT. #MSWL

Definitely on my #MSWL. Definitely definitely. (YA/MG)

#MSWL I'm dying to find great magical realism (YA/MG). One of my fave writers is Sarah Addison Allen, so like her books but for teens.

I have no idea how you'd turn this into a YA/MG story, but #MSWL to anyone who succeeds.

Oooh. *grabby hands* #MSWL (YA/MG, obv.)

An mg horror novel about this would be epic. #MSWL (Preferably #ownvoices)

I totally want this as mg or ya. I'd also like to find one in my back yard. Now where did I put the carrots... #mswl

SOLD. #MSWL (in mg/ya obv)

Still closed to queries until sometime in January. When I reopen I'd love to see MG/YA #ownvoices of life on rez a la Part-Time Indian #MSWL

I'LL FIGHT YOU FOR IT. Though chap book or mg would be good as well. #MSWL

Okay, fine, I'll allow one exception to my query pile closure: MG/YA nonfiction (prescriptive or narrative). #MSWL Sorry, but no PB nonfic.

Exactly this. #mswl
