I want "American Unearthed" but in a MG or YA series, with an odd mix of characters who don't normally hang out together but search for the truth while they discover they aren't so different after all. Diverse charcters will get precedence in slush pile! #MSWL #query

So this is really specific, but if anyone has a project they'd pitch as Jurassic Park but in Space (MG or YA), I MUST HAVE IT. It'd be sweet if they're actually dinos, (WHY are their dinos in space? I don't know) but I'd take aliens or something else. #MSWL

Querying authors, I’m pumped to share that I’ll be open to queries from February 15-April 15! I’m looking for YA and MG in all genres. Bring on all the plot twists, vibes, beautiful writing, and underrepresented voices! #MSWL

I can, have and will always enjoy reading about friendship.

But I am so interested in adult friendship dynamics these days. #MSWL

Huh... realized something today...

Am I suddenly craving thrillers? 👀👀

Anybody got some “John Darnielle for teens”? I’ll take some. #mswl

I want random acts of CLIMATE. How can kids (and adults!) do good for the planet on a daily basis? I’d love to see some creative takes that go beyond recycling, reducing plastic use, & aren’t afraid to address govt/corp responsibility. #MSWL

I know it’s not a kidlit book, but THE HOUSE IN THE CERULEAN SEA cured my reading rut and was a hug I desperately needed. I would love to see something like this but for MG/YA with truly wholesome, chaotic, and lovable characters. #MSWL

For YA, I want first job stories, gap year journeys, rom-coms with a big hook, and literally anything that could be comp'd to Sex Education or Never Have I Ever. #MSWL

For MG, I would love to see contemporary stories like FROM THE DESK OF ZOE WASHINGTON, STARFISH, and VIOLETS ARE BLUE. I’d also love to see more light fantasy projects inspired by non-western mythology! #MSWL

I’m actively looking for NF. I specialize in working with scientists and experts in their field and would love to work with more!

THIS is the kind of energy I want in a NF project. Tell me facts, but make it absolutely absurd. #MSWL

For graphic novels, I want all the high concept contemporary or magical stories with bold, beautiful art. If you can comp your projects to HILDA, THIS WAS OUR PACT, NEW KID, or any Pixar short, please send it to me. #MSWL

I want projects that are:
👻 Spooky & whimsical
🌈 Inclusive & adventurous
🧙‍♀️ Magical & thrilling
🪐 Unexpected & heartwarming
#MSWL

I want to read about:
✨ Queer kids & their queer friends
✨ Indigenous teens
✨ Deaf and/or HOH kids
✨ Mysterious towns w/ big secrets
✨ Kids living outside of the US
✨ Hyper specific hobbies & interests
#MSWL

I'm always looking for MG & YA fiction; graphic novels (early reader - YA); nonfiction for all ages (STEM, social justice, little known history); author-illustrated PBs; projects by BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, neurodiverse & disabled creators. #MSWL

These, but books #MSWL

Although, fwiw, that’s a #MSWL for me right there

Ahoy! I've been seeking this whale of an #MSWL too! 🐋📚😊

#mswl 🧀!!

Adding “a lover’s quarrel amongst concubines to a god emperor” to my #mswl
