wait now I’m inspired. 😤 Would any Queer YA authors (or creators of any queer media in general) be interested in writing a short, affirming piece for queer fans that might be reeling from the end of Supernatural? Esp the teens? We could feature them in a round-up on YA Pride.If anyone feels inspired . . . or wants to make this into a book . . . and maybe uh #MSWL 🙃

Gary Webb was an American investigative journalist who reported how the CIA flooded the small Black neighbourhood of South Central, LA with crack cocaine in order to finance a coup in Nicaragua. He was found dead with 2 bullets in the head. His death was ruled a suicideThread pic.twitter.com/t7S9W25w4n

MC: *frantically looking for something in their room*
Alex: *sends message that MC left it in the kitchen*
MC: *grateful but refuses to show it* ALEX! Aren’t you supposed to NOT interfere???
Alex: What’s the point of watching you struggle??😭
Humor all around #MSWL

Okay hear me out....YA novel w/ MC who somehow meets the FBI agent (or whatever group) assigned to monitor/watch MC (like how we all have one) and hilarity ensues. Agent is just trying to be helpful (like whenever MC is looking for something) and MC just so annoyed? #MSWLMC talking to themself or someone else: I’d really love to get ____
Agent: *helpfully sends links to sites that sell it*
MC: LEAVE. ME. ALONE. ALEX. Or I’ll expose you!
Agent: I’m just trying to help 🥺🥺
Genuine friendship eventually ensues. They meet in person someday #MSWL

As promised, here’s a little more info about my #mswl for Labyrinth Road! (Thread)Some additional more specific elements that often call to me within these below frameworks are Jewish representation, and themes of absent father/daughter angst or difficult mother/daughter dynamics. #mswl

I remain committed to my platform of sex positivity in YA, de-stigmatization of desire & sex, & inclusive (& intersectional!) representation for diverse sexual & gender identities.
Editor
On the YA side, whether fantastical or realistic, I gravitate toward books w/ high concept hooks and stories anchored in themes of identity, sexuality, & loss & grief. (Grief & sex can be complex labyrinths to navigate, as we know...).
Editor
Graphic & hybrid novels & series are welcome too! Some examples there from my past titles would be DORK DIARIES and THE OKAY WITCH. Quintessential MG stories about finding your way through the labyrinth of family, school, & friendship twists and turns.

As promised, here’s a little more info about my #mswl for Labyrinth Road! (Thread)First & foremost—epic, accessible, *character-driven* MG fantasy & adventure series! I’m excited to build series that could sit well alongside my previous projects like KEEPER OF THE LOST CITIES, STORY THIEVES, THE UNWANTEDS, FABLEHAVEN.
