what's one Taylor Swift song you could build a whole novel around?

mine is delicate

All of them. But my first thought was a dual-narrated Nothing New! #MSWL

Happy Valentine's week💘! I've been eating up contemp romance and want to bring that energy to my #mswl -- agents, hit me up with your high-concept and layered meet-cutes, esp by diverse creators. I want your YA Red White & Royal Blue, Friend Zone, Proposal, Twice in a Blue Moon!

Stephanie Stein @stephlystein

I'm dying for more fun, FUNNY, escapist YA with a killer one-sentence concept. The mood is 100% Red, White, & Royal Blue with younger characters. #MSWL

Shannon/S.A. Chakraborty @SAChakrabooks

Please....if a POC #ownvoices author even writes a Mission Impossible-esqe heist novel involving people breaking into the British Museum to recover their stolen treasure, I will help you write a query letter and blurb your book and push it into people's hands.

Not my usual genre, but how cool would this be? A Robin Hoodesque reclaiming of works from colonial powers #mswl twitter.com/SAChakrabooks/…

Molly Cusick @molly_cusick

I'd love to see more body diversity in my subs. When you don't describe a character, the reader (and the cover designer, etc.) is often going to default to the most privileged body types, the ones we typically see celebrated in media. We don't really need more of that. #MSWL

Natascha Morris @SoCalledYALife

#MSWL I need a good romance. I love falling in love with people falling in love. It doesn't have to be gooey, it can be enemies to lovers, "Fake dating", etc. But I want romance.

Dr. Uwe Stender @UweStenderPhD

Deliver me LGBT+ YA stories that leave the reader joyful. Plots that are fun, invigorating, and clever. I'd love to read an LGBT love or friendship story that's incredibly well written and makes me feel HAPPY afterward. #MSWL

Happy stories, yes please! Send me your answer to Steve Kluger. (or @stevekluger please write more books) #mswl twitter.com/UweStenderPhD/…

Kiki Nguyen @kianangu

First on my #mswl: I want an f/f YA contemporary centering a black girl or girl of color who isn't confused about anything other than How To Get The Girl. A 2015-now voice.

@mase_the_great @jodipicoult What I love about @jodipicoult books is that you think you know so much about a topic, and then she schools you, and you are better for it.

#mswl people who can do this!
