Hopeful contemporary MG that brims with heart. Think SONG FOR A WHALE. #mswl

I can’t stop thinking about this.Someone write me a reverse, PoC Howard Carter #SFF novel where cultural artifacts are repatriated to their rightful inheritors. Give me the fantasy or future tech inverse heist novel. #MSWL twitter.com/_iwakeli_i/sta…
YES PLEASE (I even wrote a #MSWL tweet about this a while ago!)

Picture books with standout/breakout characters like THE BAD SEED and MOTHER BRUCE. #mswl
Megan Ilnitzki @megilnit · 15h
Swoon worthy YA rom coms a la THE GRAVITY OF US or WHEN DIMPLE MET RISHI #mswl
Megan Ilnitzki @megilnit · 15h
Voicey MG fantasy with series potential. Think ARU SHAH or THE KIRANMALA AND THE KINGDOM BEYOND series. #mswl

Idk if #MSWLMonday is a thing, but as long as we’re all on lock down, I’ve decided I’m going to throw a few #MSWL items out into the universe every week. I can’t take unagented submissions, but agent friends, here’s a few things I’d love to see in my inbox right now:A MG with Sandlot vibes. I’m missing baseball so hardcore right now. ⚾️ #mswl

where is my YA indiana jones re-telling that has our mc taking cultural artifacts back from museums and returning them to their countries of origin? minus nazis, plus more kissing #mswl

As mentioned at the start of this thread, there are so many amazing female figures in mythology (or history) whose stories have been overlooked/untold. I would love to work on a book like CIRCE or THE LOST QUEEN--but maybe moving east for the source of inspiration #MSWL
Priyanka Krishnan @mspriyanka · 16h
I'd love a hopeful near future project, an optimistic dystopian tale, something that imagines a world where everything might be broken, but there is a best of humanity that survives (I can't imagine why I want this) #MSWL
Priyanka Krishnan @mspriyanka · 16h
I desperately want to go to space right now! I love warm, character-driven adventures a la Becky Chambers, and more sweeping space operas. Give me your ragtag crews and seemingly impossible odds, battles and hijinks (and..ahem...some romance) #MSWL
Priyanka Krishnan @mspriyanka · 16h
I am never going to stop loving fairytale-inspired stories like SPINNING SILVER. I want dark woods and woodsy magic, monsters that aren't what they seem, characters who take their destinies into their own hands, romance and danger, and a HEA #MSWL
Priyanka Krishnan @mspriyanka · 16h
Ever since I became an editor, I've wanted a GARDEN SPELLS-style project--a story about tangled family ties and old friendships, about how people fracture and mend, steeped in magic and charm and set in a town that could be anywhere, and yet... #MSWL
Priyanka Krishnan @mspriyanka · 16h
I'm craving THE CITY OF BRASS-style rich and intricate fantasy, with complicated family dynamics, stark political tension, sweeping romance, and hard loss; stories that (respectfully) wed historical inspiration and folklore with unexpected magic and major stakes #MSWL
Priyanka Krishnan @mspriyanka · 16h
@VonBrooklyn forwarded me a very cool email talking about Spring Goddesses Persephone, Flora, and Hara Ke, and honestly, all of them were #MSWL (but we agreed especially Hara Ke and her dragons)! It also made me realize I haven't done a MSWL thread in a long time.

With the world as it is, I'm looking for some fun/funny picturebooks, agent friends! And I love smart wordplay, too. #mswl
