YA romcoms are my jam. Always have been. I want to see more STEM, fun jobs, and unique hobbies. DON’T DATE ROSA SANTOS, WHEN DIMPLE MET RISHI, ROYALS, and ALEX, APPROXIMATELY are perfect examples of voice, humor, and substance in contemp YA romcoms! #mswl

i want more diverse mg fantasy with secondary animal characters that steal my heart #mswl

Narrative non-fiction: “Within culture I’m looking for diverse takes on current events, politics, niche cultures and interesting voices.” @maureen_moretti #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Same! #MSWL

One of my biggest, most important career goals is to bring books (yes, plural) to market that talk about relationship violence in a constructive way for teens. If you have that, please know I am here and waiting for you. #MSWL

Also if someone could give me Tormund but like in YA form I’d love you forever PLEASE AND THANK YOU #MSWL

Just saw a trailer for HBO’s Gentleman Jack, and omg, #mswl I didn’t know I needed in my life. youtu.be/Gce44fIgV3g

I need a friendship break-up book.

But also a super cute rom-com

I am in need of cinematic fantasy #YA #MSWL

I don't understand the desire for writers to always do multiPOV. I am so burned out by them. Can I just get some single POV fantasies? #MSWL #YA

Umm... Yes, please. Sign me up for this. Bonus points if you can comp the movie Barely Legal #MSWL

SAME! #mswl

As always, I’m looking for the thing I didn’t know I was looking for -- so please, try me! I want to fall in love with a submission & find new stories to edit & prepare for submission this spring & summer! Find @ParkandFine's sub guidelines here: parkfine.com/get-in-touch/

In MG & YA: I ❤️ stories that feel a little off-kilter. Something is up in the town/neighborhood & it may be otherworldly...or is it? That kind of thing #mswl

And, yes, I am among those agents looking for paranormal! This can be set in our world & hidden from us non-vampires (so I claim), or it can be in a world where paranormal things are an accepted part of the world. I'm so excited for Renée Ahdieh's THE BEAUTIFUL! #mswl

I loved SADIE too because I love a good mystery, where you read on because you have to figure out not just what is GOING to happen but also what already DID happen. #mswl

Stories told in epistolary or otherwise unique formats: through emails, testimonies, scripts, texts, podcast transcripts, etc. SADIE is a great example that I loved. My client's forthcoming LAST TRUE POETS OF THE SEA also does this. #mswl

I’d also LOVE a cool, cinematic spec novel or contained sci-fi. Something catchy, like “TITANIC but in a newly opened underwater resort” or FAST & FURIOUS meets I don’t know what... Basically, I love when the concept has a *wow* factor. #mswl

Side note: I love big-hearted middle grade, regardless of genre. I love kids who are both brave and vulnerable; stories about finding your place of belonging, and learning whose opinions matter to you--and whose do not. #mswl
