& all of my perpetual #mswl items still stand: interesting female friendships, diverse chars, #ownvoices, girls who code, etc #WF #R #YA #MG

In #MG, I want mysteries about things that go bump in the night...The creepier, the better! #mswl #M

On the hunt for #YA retellings of obscure fairy tales/mythology/folklore and lesser-known classic literature #mswl

#MSWL A girl gang YA! Something like the Pink Ladies or Teddy girls

Still on the hunt for the perfect heartfelt magical realist MG. (Here's a good def of magical realism: michellewittebooks.com/2015/07/what-i…) #mswl #MG

Women’s fiction that could be comped to Sarah Addison Allen, Liane Moriarty, Maria Semple or Meg Wolitzer = I want to see it. #mswl #A #WF

Continuing my obsession with The Mummy, would love #MG, #YA, or #A set on an archaeological dig (especially #HF)! #mswl

Looking for smart, sexy contemporary romance—second chance rom & enemies to lovers stories are my faves. Diversity welcome! #mswl #A #R #CR

I'm always on the hunt for multicultural MG/YA projects where the culture is a natural part of the story but not the "issue." #mswl

#mswl day! Here are a few of mine, altho of course above all I always want fantastic writing, chars I can root for& a book I can't put down:

Love YA and MG protags dealing with unique medical, emotional and psych issues. #MSWL #YA #MG

"Fantasy, sci-fi, contemporary, your pretty-much-any-genre in YA." @ericsmithrocks #MSWL bit.ly/1dbOPj8

I'll drop by #PitchMatch, #MSWL, #PBPitch later today (crap, I really am up late) but it'll be sporadic. 'Night. *passes out on keyboard*

In the meantime, stop by my personal website to see some rather detailed notes on the kinds of books I like: michellewittebooks.com/agent/query-gu… #MSWL

#MSWL Basically, I want #YA/#MG that doesn't assume that only kids from middle class homes can be happy and healthy. SUBVERT THE TROPES.

#MSWL And stories about kids who come from poor homes—but aren't abused or abandoned or whatever. So many great people happen to be poor.

#MSWL Here, diverse can mean anything from ethnicity and culture to religion to sexual orientation to (dis)abilities to mental health.

Oh, I can't believe I almost forgot to mention I'm alwaysalwaysalways looking for books by diverse authors about diverse characters. #MSWL

As always, I'm dying for lush magical realism—#MG & #YA. If you're not familiar w/the (very specific) subgenre michellewittebooks.com/2015/07/what-i… #MSWL

#MSWL I have some great author illustrators, but I'm always looking for more. Because I'm greedy. #AllTheIllustrators #mine
