Submission update! My new goal is to respond in 72 hours if it is a pass. I’m currently looking for YA thrillers, high concept contemporary, gothic fiction and paranormal. #mswl

My wishlist in a nutshell: diaspora, liminal spaces, counterintuitive, memoir w/ reportage, food, social horror, mythology, light speculative, NYC stories, historical, contemporary, multigenerational. And always, always prioritizing intersectional work from marginalized writers.

Only accept agented manuscripts, FYI. All these #MSWL ramblings are just me thinking out loud... especially if it helps inspire a writer (even if I never see it) 😁

And is there something around Día de Muertos and God/faith that would make for a good kids book? #MSWL

There's so much to love about #TurningRed but one of the many things it does well is explore puberty for girls in a really engaging way. I desperately want to see this in the MG space, give me books that deal with puberty for girls in all its awkward and funny ways #MSWL

I'm no longer tired post-Covid and I am hungry for amazing, complex, propulsive storytelling that reflects the world around us, YA and adult fiction. (Agented only) #MSWL
