For YA fantasy, I am hear queens/assassins/con artist are a harder sell, so give fantasy that is new and different. Like I wanted THE 100 in fantasy. Or the Cold War in fantasy. Rethink the genre. #MSWL

For YA and MG Historical Fiction, voice is key. World building is key. I am less interested in post 1950s historical , unless it is a history I don't know. #MSWL

I am craving contemporary stories that do something creative with time or story structure, or novels with bite-sized chapters, etc. Something contemporary but with a high-concept delivery in the structure. #mswl

Rom-coms have been #1 on my #MSWL for ages now. They’re the books I most often turn to for comfort, for joy, to cure a bad mood, to introduce me to writers & characters whose worldview enriches my life. Authors/agents, if you see this tweet, my inbox is waiting...

Always seeking domestic suspense or psych suspense--would love mother/child stories, LGBTQ stories, stories other than husband/wife would be my preference right now #MSWL

I desperately need upmarket, literary or women's fiction that takes a close look at the opioid epidemic. Maybe a person dealing with a child, spouse, or other who is addicted? Or a family saga ala Bull Mountain #MSWL

The last thing I should be doing on my day off, with a full query inbox, is tweet out my #MSWL, but it's August and rules don't apply 😂 #thread

I'm still seeking a book that brings me into another culture/country/world I'm unfamiliar with. NEXT YEAR IN HAVANA & CRAZY RICH ASIANS both come to mind #MSWL Could be serious, could be romantic, could be funny.
