Getting some traction for an old #mswl tweet so thought I should update with what I am actively looking for RIGHT NOW: Crime and psychological thrillers with a very, very, very clear hook, and wonderful MG - warm, funny, contemporary, magical - anything with a great voice!

Um, same #MSWL

Um hi hello yes this is a major #MSWL

Also my eternal #MSWL is a project that features horses in some unique way (LOVED Sawkill Girls and The Scorpio Races). #MG or #YA

THIS. THIS. THIS. #MSWL

Too often we see unhealthy/abusive relationship behaviors modeled in YA lit without having those behaviors inspected or questioned. This subsequently helps normalize those behaviors IRL. #noexcuseforabuse

#MSWL please! (Fiction set in such a system)

On Sunday, Bong Joon-ho’s “Parasite” became the first film not in the English language to win an Academy Award for #BestPicture. Diversity & representation are so important in our movies and our literature, and we are always searching for new and important stories to tell! #mswl

As much as I love getting YA & MG submissions in my inbox, I'd also love to see more adult nonfiction come my way! I'm always looking for illustrated nonfiction projects, light-hearted narrative projects with a sense of humor & pop culture, pop science & humor submissions. #mswl

Also, #MSWL

A remake of "The Boy is Mine" but they realize the boy is trash and end up with each other

“When it comes to cookbooks, I love unique projects from platformed authors that explore topics that are hard to find in the bookstore, or haven't been explored at all.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

Agents! I’m on the hunt for a #YA #fantasy with a kickass heroine, brilliant worldbuilding, a high stakes plot and a touch of romance. Think SERPENT & DOVE by Shelby Mahurin, SHATTER THE SKY by Rebecca Kim Wells, and A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas. #MSWL

Agents! I’m dying to find a voice-driven #YA #romcom. The meet cute, the awkward flirty banter, the high emotional stakes—I want them all! Comps: Morgan Matson, Jenny Han, and Sarah Dessen. #MSWL

I would really like to find a 30-40k MG Fantasy. Something short and sweet and magical. #mswl

#MSWL, obviously.

Happy Valentine's week💘! I've been eating up contemp romance and want to bring that energy to my #mswl -- agents, hit me up with your high-concept and layered meet-cutes, esp by diverse creators. I want your YA Red White & Royal Blue, Friend Zone, Proposal, Twice in a Blue Moon!

For #YA I also would love to find a fun historical with modern sensibilities (think A Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue). #MSWL

For me, it's all about voice. Sometimes it's the project that I least expect that pulls me in. If in doubt (and if it is something that I represent😀), query! #MSWL #MG #YA #Adult
