Here are just SOME of the things on my #mswl in 2019 (but I of course often fall in love with the thing I didn't know I was looking for)... (1/13)#mswl 2019: Smart, hold-no-punches YA contemporary. One of my favorite titles of 2018 was SADIE by Courtney Summers so if you’ve written something like that, yes please! Other favorite recent contemporary YA: Nina LaCour’s WE ARE OKAY, Angie Thomas’s THE HATE U GIVE. (2/13)

As always, MG is on my #mswl these days & all days. Everything from standalone contemporary and magical realism to big fantasy series.
Literary Agent
#mswl - In terms of MG, I'd especially love to find contemporary & historical, magical realism, & stories that feel very classic & timeless!
Literary Agent
#mswl - strange and magical MG & YA. Contemporary or historical where the magical feeling comes from how the protagonist sees the world.
