Hey writers! I wonโ€™t be able to participate in #SFFpit for long today, but Iโ€™m always on the lookout for engaging SFF in the YA and MG spheres.

Here are some specific wish list items and how to reach me: 1/4

-character-driven YA sci-fi, especially if it explores a theme such as our relationship to technology or what it means to be human
-YA sci-fi blended with any other genreโ€”sci-fi horror, sci-fi fantasy (Iโ€™d die for a YA Gideon the Ninth!), sci-fi mystery/thriller, etc.

You can see my full Manuscript Wishlist here! I won't take anything animal-related off of it since this is by no means a permanent request and I would never say no to a *perfect* animal fit, but it's otherwise accurate ๐Ÿ™‚:

I love me some animal books! You may have noticed quite a few in my announcements recently (and will notice more ๐Ÿ‘€). So excited as I am about them, for now I'm hoping to see some more human-centered submissions to rebalance my list! #MSWL

And for MG contemporary, I'm on the hunt for affecting, voice-y middle grade with a hooky premise, friendship, and emotional depth--coming-of-age books that tow the literary-commercial line like Dan Gemeinhart's and Erin Entrada Kelly's books! #MSWL

Or a dash of speculative in contemporary is great too! For YA fantasy, I love swoony, action-packed stories with fresh magic systems and diverse worldbuilding #MSWL.

I'm usually specific with my wish list and comps, but I'm going to try something more general here, because I love seeing the unexpected in my inbox. For YA contemporary, send me the feels! Love stories! Coming of age stories focused on identity! Quirkiness OR grittiness! #MSWL

3/ 2019 #MSWL Agents: 1st and always, I want to curate a list of authors (and books) that accurately reflects the world around me--one that is filled with diverse creators and content--and support them in our shared goal of creating more mirrors (and portals) for kids and teens.

Agent friends! Since I was closed to submissions for a while, I want to declare that I am/have been BACK OPEN FOR BUSINESS! Please send your clients' amazing projects my way. I'm particularly eager to find more YA contemporary and fantasy, plus MG contemporary. #MSWL
