Dear YA Publishing: there is a podcast called Teenager Therapy made BY teens about BEING teens. If we want our books to appeal to teens, then what is better than checking out a show allll about how they feel, from their own minds?(#MSWL a YA about a group of friends making something cool like this)

I'm still looking for my YA mystery that reads like Brick - bonus points if the protagonist is LGBTQ+ ! #MSWL

I am especially interested in finding more SF! I love both literary SF that could be marketed to both non-genre and genre reading audiences, and more commercial SF with knowledgeable worldbuilding that asks big, human questions (ala the Expanse series) #MSWL

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I am almost completely caught up on queries. This means I'm HUNGRY. So even though it's not an official #MSWL day, in this thread I'm going to link to old wishlist items I still want and add some new ones!Overall I'm craving unique takes on magic and worldbuilding, protagonists who struggle to acquire their ultimately hard-won skillsets, gorgeous prose, and narratives that ask topical questions or reframe old ones - especially from under-repped voices. #MSWL

Why does YA fantasy hate soft characters. Why’s everyone an assassin. Where are the chefsHi I want soft characters in YA fantasy #MSWL

hi this is a YA. #superstoreTeen quits Walmart job over the store’s intercom: ‘Attention all shoppers ... nobody should work here — ever’ chicagotribune.com/business/ct-bi…
This just reaffirms my desire for a YA Superstorw-esque contemporary 😍 #MSWL

I want a book about a character like Ambrose Spellman--kind, gifted, tortured, and definitely queer af. #mswl pic.twitter.com/osCH2n4ICuHe is the only good thing about that show and there is nowhere near enough of him #MSWL

Can we start a YA trope called "ridiculously powerful girls and the sweet yet deadly boys who gladly walk through fire to kneel at their feet" because that's what we need in 2018 thank you for coming to my TEDTalk.WANT #Mswl
