Dante Medema @DanteMedema

currently reading: THE GREAT ALONE

I love LOVE the area this book is set (outside Homer) and have wanted to set a book here for a long time. This story is BEAUTIFUL and makes me ache from the insides in the best way. Her descriptions of my state make my heart so happy.

This on my #mswl

The Wall Street Journal @WSJ

The children of the college admissions scandal grapple with the fallout. “I don’t know who you are anymore, mom.” on.wsj.com/2RpMF4R

This is a book I'd like to see. Parents who go too far because they think they're protecting their kids. This is both fiction and nonfiction depending on your take. #mswl

I am asked about this often, and I really wish there were dozens, nay, hundreds of great kids'/middle grade/YA books dealing with transracial adoption *written by transracial adoptees*. Adopted kids need a whole lot more rep than they've got.

This is on my #MSWL. Would love to acquire a book like this.

My [24M] Girlfriend [23F] has the weirdest hobbies in existence, and they make me kinda uncomfortable. pic.twitter.com/3IMsUuD0La

Every time this resurfaces all I can think about is how much it is #mswl. The girl. Not the guy who can’t appreciate her.

ellen @ellencormier

MG or YA speculative fiction that's as sharp, funny, and layered as #RussianDoll. Something that uses the speculative element to say something, not just as a cool hook #mswl

Yes. This. #MSWL

Jessica Khoury @jkbibliophile

One day I’ll write about a pragmatic, ordinary small-town girl who accidentally ends up as manager/den mother to a group of emotionally defunct superheroes who can barely save anyone, and how her earthy determination, relentless optimism, and pecan pies save them (and the world).

This but a MG/YA graphic novel!!! Make my year and land it in my inbox please? 😍 #MSWL

Myriam Chingona Gurba de Serrano @lesbrains

Kids in my classroom just called a Oujia board "ghost google."

This is amazing and there HAS to be a middle grade story in there somewhere #mswl

Oooo and I want books that make me laugh so hard I cry. Especially MG books and romance books.

Give me quiet books too that make you smile at the end (or cry). Especially in YA and Adult spaces. #mswl

Ronald S. Hall @TheSpecterRises

@NaomisLitPix As a literary agent when you look at query letters, i.e. YA query letter, are there keywords that really stand out to you that peaks your interest in potential manuscript? Cheers.

Replying to @TheSpecterRises

Hi Ronald! I think for me, it's the overall whole package that catches my interest rather than keywords in the query. But of course if I see my #MSWL comp titles or an #ownvoices story it does catch my eye.

Hi #amquerying, I have an urgent #mswl that needs to be addressed...
😉
I am seriously lacking anything and everything in the contemporary fiction space. Romance, Realistic (nonissue books), WF, RomCom, high concept book! I need them in MG, YA, and Adult categories.

I am still thinking about how THE PERFECTION & BLACK SWAN so creepily captured what it's like to take a passion too seriously. (I was a ballet dancer for 18 years, & BLACK SWAN was shockingly familiar.) I'd love a YA/adult horror novel about a dark obsession with the arts. #MSWL
