"A diverse, contemporary YA novel about strong guy friendships. Think Poe and Finn. <3" @ericsmithrocks #MSWL bit.ly/1dbOPj8

If this is woven in with magical realism, science fiction, mystery, other genres that get kids reading, all the better. #MSWL

Would love great MG that explores socioeconomic experiences such as poverty, homelessness/home insecurity, class barriers, etc. #MSWL

More #MSWL. Middle grade! Particularly literary MG that stars LGBT families or protagonists, Muslim characters, curriculum connections.

#mswl Surely there's a way to update the feral domesticity of the first Boxcar Children book for a modern MG audience?

#MSWL Brilliant female engineers of color find love. But they are real humans, too, and are socially ept.

A miniseries based around PoC cowboys. Perhaps members of a ranching dynasty? #MSWL

Can't stop thinking about The Witch. I'd love a meticulously researched, historically accurate YA ghost/witch story w *intense* dread #mswl

#MSWL I would LOVE an adult nonfic proposal about tiny houses! I CANNOT get enough of them!

A #MSWL from Jessica Alvarez bookendsliterary.com/index.php/2016…

I’m caught up on queries through 3/14 & fulls through 3/1. It’s a good time to submit. A #MSWL post will be on the BookEnds blog later today

"Narrative nonfiction with a feminist angle." @MsMariaVicente #MSWL bit.ly/1n46gqe

@EllaApollodorus I accept queries that are on my #MSWL

So the #sciencefiction I want to see in my #MSWL? Smart SF that takes a diverse future as a given.

And I don't mean sidekicks either. I mean heroes. And full on casts. #sciencefiction #MSWL

And then look at demographic predictions for the next 50 or 100 years. If you're writing #sciencefiction you need a diverse cast! #MSWL

Late-night #MSWL in reaction to reading yet another SF set in a nearly all-white future: SF is extrapolation! LOOK at current demographics.

SEC football. US politics. National identity. You a culture critic/contemporary essayist who sees the links? Please, please query me. #mswl

On my #MSWL: Quirky, inventive, heart-wrenching stories in the vein of Karen Russell, Jenny Offill, or Aimee Bender. #A #YA

I really enjoy awkward, well-meaning, nerdy characters like Gus on Netflix's LOVE. I'd love them even more in book form. #MSWL
