I’m fascinated by how our siblings affect who we become. Give me close, intense, layered sibling relationships in YA. #MSWL

YA novels that include a complex but ultimately positive mother-teen relationship. So often I see toxic mothers, want something else. #MSWL

Diversity! Diversity! Diversity! All kinds of diverse stories and writers. #MSWL

A YA novel that will start conversations; change and open reader’s minds. #MSWL

A heart-stoppingly romantic YA novel. A book that breaks your heart and makes you feel all the possibility of first, deep love. #MSWL

What I crave the most are stories & characters I haven't seen before. That surprise and challenge me. That see the world differently. #mswl

I'd love to see a MG or YA novel based on/related to the Flint Water Crisis. #MSWL

As a former children's librarian, I'm always hunting for PBs, MG or YA about libraries or librarians - the more fierce the better! #MSWL

My fav CBs have truly dynamic characters and are hysterical. All-time fav: DORY. Really want a diverse CB series. #MSWL

And, if you're wondering what's on my wishlist for 2017, take a gander here: goo.gl/M0eb5Q #MSWL

I'm a fan of Molly Idle, Christian Robinson & Sergio Ruzzier. If your work is as fresh, original and thoughtful as these, query me! #MSWL

Epistolary novels; a novel-within-a-novel; a journal format; secret letters; found documents – MG or YA that uses these elements. #MSWL

MG and YA fantasy! I want to fall in love with your MC, be completely immersed in a world that's surprising and original. #MSWL

What's my wishlist request, you ask? High concept, emotional MG or YA set in this world, with a fantastic/magical realism element. #MSWL

I am closed, but if you have a project that matches one of my recent #MSWL posts, pls send. Incl #MSWL in subject. Thanks!

I LOVE historical fantasy. Am most interested in non-Western settings, but open to all. #MSWL

An American Agatha Christie, for MG or YA! #MSWL

HUMOR. If you're writing something funny - esp like wry, smart humor - I'd love to see it. PB, CB, MG, YA. #MSWL

I want to be surprised! If you're doing something different, send it to me! #MSWL
