Ya'll, I watched Pitch this weekend on @Hulu and now I'm so depressed that there isn't a season 2. The stakes! The chemistry! The feminism! It was soooo good. #bringbackpitchI should also say that I want an adult rom-com in this vein! #MSWL

This is mentioned above in another shape and form, but I’m looking for Latinx voices! Fantasies, rom coms, etc! Envíenme! #mswlAs I am reminded today that I was born and raised in a colony and that Puerto Ricans in the island are second-class citizens, a reminder that I am looking for Latinx voices for my list!
Where are my fantasies, romcoms, etc at? #mswl

What are some things you’d like to see more of in books? It can be ANYTHING. some of mine:- non-binary folks
- bi men
- Black joy
- journey w an animal guide
- less romance
- intergenerational/generational storytelling
- Villain protagonist
- Black thrillers
- elder mc
I'd love to see:
✨ NF pop culture/geeky books from non-white authors
✨ BIPOC & POC fans being passionate & creative
✨ Positive, playful LGBTQA+ rom-coms
✨ Soft, beautiful, powerful friendships
✨ More empowering, playful, joyful stories with BIPOC & POC MCs

It is more radical to publish Black joy than it is to publish Black trauma, pass it on.Top of my wish list for manuscript acquisitions (and freelance jobs) are romantic comedies by #ownvoices authors featuring BIPOC protagonists who make each other laugh.

My consultation spots for Black #kidlit authors are now full. But I will add more every month (no end date planned) and post the links when available. Meanwhile, I'm always happy to chat on Twitter for general questions. elana.me/consultationsAnd not to conflate things, I have never stopped looking for Black voices to add to my list of authors. If you write fun, escapist stories for MG or YA, I'm here! Currently hungry for rom-coms and light fantasy, but open to an adventure. elana.me/wish-list #mswl

Like many of us in these strange times, I’ve been taking comfort in books. And it’s made me think of the kinds of stories I want to champion.Most of this won’t be a surprise, but for what it’s worth, here’s my current #MSWL:
YOUNG ADULT
- high-concept, darkly comic modern fables with literary writing and crossover appeal like THE PISCES or GEEK LOVE
- eerie and atmospheric fantasies inspired by non-Western mythology
- sweet contemporary rom-coms about QPOC main characters
