I absolutely believe there is a way to talk about pain honestly and constructively that isn’t exploitative or done by choosing to make the reader a voyeur. This is always what I’m looking for. #MSWL

I’d love to see graphic novels land in my query inbox! #mswl

#MSWL Would love to see a great New Adult novel similar to BEFORE SUNRISE. No, I am not looking for stories simply about college level kids having sex in Europe. I want the relationship storytelling.

I get a lot of great queries from marginalized voices (thank you, keep them coming!!), and one gap I've noticed is characters with disabilities. Define that however you choose, but I want to see more of this kind of representation in kidlit, and on my list specifically. #MSWL

I do a lot of fantasy, but I also do a ton of contemporary, and I'd love to see more big-hook stories set in our world. If you want a great example of hooky, high-concept contemporary YA I love that we rep here @FolioJr: DUMPLIN' and TO ALL THE BOYS I'VE LOVED BEFORE. #MSWL

As a colleague pointed out to me, you can find truth in tragedy, but you can also find truth in joy. I'd love to see YA and MG that find truth in joy. Give me your funny books, effervescent love stories, your joyous and triumphant journeys, adventures, relationships. #MSWL

I'm very much a fan of characters who make the wrong decisions and fuck up and are flawed. I would ALSO like to see stories about people who do all the "right" things, but stuff falls apart anyway because it's impossible to control the world! That's real too. #MSWL

#MSWL Looking for some great women's fiction stories. Would love to see mother/daughter, father/daughter or sister/sister stories!
NO EXTRA DRAMA, just show a great relationship between the characters.

Personally, I love contemporary romance that is less tropey, and deals with deep character issues. Right now I am actively seeking LGBTQ+ contemporary romance! #MSWL

Me personally, I'm always looking for MG contemporary and fantasy genres. I'd really love to find my creepy coraline-esque book as well as a first crush LGBT book (a la the animated short 'In a Heartbeat') #AskAgent #MSWL

I would love more modern European history that is post WWII #MSWL

There have been a ton of picture books in my inbox lately and I am loving it. #MSWL

As a reminder, I very much want to read adult queer contemporary romance stories!!! #MSWL Definitely looking for #ownvoices experiences here. Queryme.online/naomidavis

I’m going to put it out there again. I’d really love to see younger YA contemporary that focuses on young teens starting high school for the first time with all of the mixed up feelings that come along with them!

And as always, send me great MG of all genres! #mswl

I want to read an anthology of YA authors talking about their pets.

"I'm not sure the market exists for-"

Look I don't care, someone just collect everyone's stories about their dogs and cats and birbs and send it to me. #MSWL

I'm hungry for a really, really good work of nonfiction focusing on productivity--with tips, tools, etc. What have you got? #MSWL

I want a book on Cecilia Payne. #MSWL
