Some good news for the timeline: My responsibilities at work will be changing in the next couple weeks, & I'll be focusing solely on my own list!

If any agents would like to connect (or reconnect!), I'm happy to chat. In the meantime, here is my #MSWL: editoralexborbolla.wordpress.com/mswl/

Time for a #MSWL update! When it comes to genre, I’m omnivorous. In #MG and #YA, I’m especially hungry for:

High-concept genre elements combined with literary writing and an exploration of timeless themes.

Genre mash-ups! Give me that...

My #MSWL of the moment can be split into two camps: delightful cottagecore uplit or romcom with perhaps a VERY light magical touch or delightful cottagecore turned haunted horror: Midsommar meets The Invited.

I am FOREVER looking for a well-researched YA or MG based on a historical tragedy (earthquakes, ship sinking, volcano, chicago fire, etc). #MSWL #AskECLA

My list is getting a bit YA fantasy heavy. I would love to see more MG fantasy/horror, YA contemporary, and MG and YA graphic novels. #MSWL.

I’m a bit late to the conversation but: THE QUEEN’S GAMBIT, y’all! I’m as obsessed with it as my 16-year-old self once was with the musical, Chess. This kind of elegant, cerebral-to-the-point-of-the-almost-fantastical, setting-rich, character-driven storytelling is my fave. #MSWL

It is always around this time of year I realize that at least 25% of my middle grade tastes could be summed up as: can you comp this to Disney's The Haunted Mansion ride? Happy Halloween! #MSWL
