And across all age groups, stories where, despite nay-saying voices (whether they be internal/external or both), a main character comes into their own and recognizes their inherent power, self-worth, and unique place in the world. #mswl

YA rom-coms reminiscent of a Nora Ephron film with clever hooks, witty dialogue, and swoon-worthy characters #mswl

Spooky, atmospheric MG. Think JUST SOUTH OF HOME and the Serafina series. #mswl

Stories with protagonists ablaze with the same gumption, courage, and determination to protect the planet as Amariyanna Copeny, Greta Thunberg, and Autumn Peltier. #mswl

Contemporary, heartfelt coming-of-age MG in the vein of THE REMARKABLE JOURNEY OF COYOTE SUNRISE, SONG FOR A WHALE and THE LINE TENDER. #mswl

SWEEP: THE STORY OF A GIRL AND HER MONSTER was one of my favorite non-Harper books of 2019 and I’d love to see more MG/YA historical fantasy that’s just as compelling, poignant, and imaginative. #mswl

Lush, high-stakes MG/ YA fantasy with series potential featuring unlikely heroes you can’t help but root for and writing that knocks your socks off. #mswl

So first and foremost, across all age ranges and genres, I’m always looking for stories from diverse voices and underrepresented creators. #weneeddiversebooks now more than ever, especially ones full of adventure, magic, and love. #mswl

It has come to my attention that the JIMMY list has no books containing dragons. This must be remedied, so agents, please send me MG submissions with dragons in them! I had a huge thing for dragons as a kid and would love to see some unique takes on them now. #MSWL

Putting some #MSWL items out into the universe in the hopes they find their way to me in 2020! Agent friends, I’m actively acquiring PB, MG, and YA but I’m really looking to build my MG/YA lists this year. Below are some things I’d love to see right now. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
