It's #mswl day and as a forever-shojo-manga-lover, all I can think about is how much I want to work on more YA romance/drama. If you have graphic novel pitches that fall into that genre, send them my way!

It's #MSWL day! I'll post some of the things I'm looking for, and if you think we'd be a good fit, please send a query, synopsis, full manuscript, and any relevant sales history to horror@sourcebooks.com (and don't worry if your project isn't horror, I promise it'll get to me).

I'm on the hunt for book-club fiction and weighty commercial up-market books with characters I can really sink my teeth into. Think TOMORROW, AND TOMORROW, AND TOMORROW by Gabrielle Zevin! #MSWL

I lied. I am a SUCKER for a whirlwind YA love story/romcom. I am a hopeful romantic, I’m sorry. Please make my heart melt.😊

Stories that hold the most value in its message and redefines the typical HEA and illuminates how it differs from person to person.

Swing me stories with uncomfortable topics to get readers comfortable with being uncomfortable when it comes to experiences they aren’t familiar with.

But, I love some angst and themes of identity, grief, family/multigenerational dynamics, displacement, self-love, etc.

NOOOOO BLACK TRAUMA, unless it has a powerful message on Joy being a tool for RESILIENCE!

I am looking for stories from Black creators and from marginalized communities.

Bring on the MG fantasy, sci-fi, contemporary, and/or coming-of-age stories centered around black characters, experiences, and BLACK JOY!
