Taking conference pitches this weekend made me realize I have a TERRIBLE NEED for queer historical YA. Not fantasy! I want real queer teens living, loving, and existing throughout the ages. If you have this, agents, I'll take them even though I'm closed to submissions! #MSWL

Historical novels both fantasy and realistic鈥攅specially overlooked or underrepresented stories in history (though I'm pickier when it comes to 20th century history). Examples of what I'm looking for: DREAD NATION and BLOOD COUNTESS! #MSWL

Still hunting for YA novelizations of my two favorite historical ladies: Julie d' Aubigny (La Maupin) and Ching Shih! #MSWL

Sports stories! Especially female-driven or intersectional sports stories. Think Fox's PITCH for YA. #MSWLHistorical retellings or AU history. Biblical retellings. Maybe a gender-swapped Alexandra the Great or a YA Esther. #MSWL
