A funny, heart-warming, layered family drama with an ensemble cast that clash socially, politically, or culturally etc. and has an interesting setting - like a Pakistani Muslim husband and an English Catholic wife who own a fish & chip shop in Salford with their seven children...

A coming of age story (could be either YA or Adult) that's set in a specific era or place and centred on a particular 'thing' the MC loves or has to overcome - like an 11yo boy in 1980's Durham who, against all odds, wants to be a ballet dancer...

I love it when a book goes in a direction I don’t expect (which is very rare) but ends up feeling meant-to-be and incredibly satisfying.

I'm closing submissions tomorrow. Thank you to everyone who submitted during March. I received an overwhelming amount and will be reviewing each personally. Please be patient as I go through them. #MSWL

"I love sci fi and fantasy novels. I read a ton of them. But they have to be accessible. What does that mean? It means that readers who don't traditionally pick up much sci fi & fantasy, can pick up one of these novels and enjoy it."

Quick #MSWL update! At the moment, I'm not taking on any new picture book clients. I love them but want to make sure I'm taking the time to focus on my current PB authors - it's tough out there!

Editor friends, I don't know tons of you looking for novellas & I need to meet you! I've been obsessively reading Murderbot & I'd love to rep a SFF novella/series (#MSWL) but I also do CURRENTLY have a horror novella if anyones looking! King would love it, gotta young MC!

Can I double #MSWL this and I'll send it to Dina?!!

Been thinking I'd love an MG or a YA book with "empathy" at its heart as a theme. Not looking for preachy or lessons, just that as its core heart. #MSWL

"Standout single-subject books tend to grab me really quickly. If you think your project is too niche, I might be right for you."

"Nonfiction (especially self-help or cultural commentary) from qualified sources. I want books that help people discover issues they didn't know about or see a familiar problem in a new way. Fresh perspectives are encouraged!"

…and will never say no to creepy. #mswl

Across both adult and children’s markets, I’m looking for work that radically reimagines the ways in which we live and interact #mswl

Also some mythical retellings and / or adventures inspired by non-Western myths and legends for the middle grade market? #mswl

Pondering my current #mswl. I’d still love to see some high-concept YA romance (if queer then all the better) that addresses the climate crisis… ecological, possibly international, could be a version of our world, could be fantasy?

I need more swamp books in my life #mswl
