Are there any SFF stories/novels about a pandemic that mostly kills white people (e.g. the reverse of the one we're living now) & its effects on society? If not, & a BIPOC writer wants to write it for YA: #MSWL

Just thinking how much I’d love to get a Jewish YA that is NOT centered on the Holocaust. Give me a Birthright thriller!! A Camp Chi summer romance! A Hillel set-up gone wrong!! And the more food descriptions, the better. Please & thank you #mswl #amediting

Finished @normalpeople tonight and it completely wrecked me. 😭💔 Give me these complexities of love and intimacy and the boundaries of friendship in #YA. A bonus if you can make me ugly cry. #MSWL

I love thrillers that feel very teen (like how One of Us is Lying starts with a death in detention and how A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder begins with a a school project) #mswl

I grew up reading FUN girl-driven stories. The Babysitters Club, The Clique, Gossip Girl, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, Pretty Little Liars etc. I’d love to edit a series like this for a new generation #mswl
