#MSWL -- scary middle grade! I'm particularly eager to add more MG to my list this year & love a good, spooky tale. petejknapp.com/post/155642618…

I would love a YA on a contemporary topic like Black Lives Matter, NC Bathroom Bill, access to abortion, etc. #MSWL

BROAD #MSWL: things that AREN'T on my wishlist. Because so often I never know I wanted something until I see a query. (Isn't that helpful?)

#MSWL - epistolary YA novels and novels that play with format, including YA with illustrations, letters, tweets, etc. #amquerying

#MSWL - ambitious YA! Stories with a strong point of view and that take narrative risks. petejknapp.com/post/155639793… …

Brilliant world-building, compelling characters, high stakes & emotional depth. Don't have to like characters, but must be invested. #MSWL

Please no CIA/FBI thrillers about ISIS/ISIL/etc. #MSWL

I'd love a MG/YA about the kind of friendship that makes you see the world differently & shapes & defines you for the rest of yr life. #MSWL

I especially want contemporary fiction (adult and YA) w/ Muslim protagonists, including upmarket & mysteries. #MSWL

First things first: I want girl MCs who don't give a crap about being seen as nice or being liked. I want girls who Get. Stuff. Done. #MSWL

If your YA/MG has a vivid, authentic Southern voice/sensibility, gimme! But be warned: I'm a Texan so I'll know if you're faking. #MSWL

#MSWL Cozy mysteries blueridgeagency.com

Esp. interested in YA from POV of typical teen w/ special needs sibling & the range of emotions and complicated reliationships there. #MSWL

I still want a contemporary YA book a la LEVERAGE or OCEAN'S ELEVEN. Ensemble casts (diversity a plus) being badass and stealing shit. #MSWL

Still looking for YA & WF from POV of person with special needs and/or family member, highlighting ups & downs, humor & challenges. #MSWL

I want diverse characters, whether they're ethnically diverse or LGBTQ, written by diverse authors. #MSWL #WNDB #ownvoices

SciFi (MG, YA, A) is tricky. NO: hard SciFi that needs a science degree to understand it. YES: light SciFi with cool tech & new worlds #MSWL

It's hard to think of #MSWL items when my feed is filled with disheartening news. One certainty: I'm looking for diverse #ownvoices.
