#mswl I'd love to see some contemporary fiction centering on adult friend groups who have known each other since high school/college.

Call out to the universe for your epic / quirky / foot-popping / second chance / star-crossed / high concept love story - for adults or YA... would love contemporary #Persuasion, the clever structure of #500DaysofSummer, or surprise me! #mswl #summerloving ✨💕☀️🔥📚

I am hungry to buy something that sweeps me off my feet - YA, rooted in contemporary, with a great hook, strong voice, complex characters. Come at me, people! #MSWL

🗣🗣 still my #mswl!!

Seeking: Adult: suspense/thrillers, horror, fantasy, sci-fi, contemporary romance, rom-com, & mysteries. YA: suspense/ thrillers, horror, sci-fi, fantasy, mysteries, & contemporary. MG: Horror, sci-fi, fantasy, contemporary, adventure, mysteries, & humor. #diversity #MSWL

In addition to historical (see my pinned tweet) I’m looking for fresh, high-concept contemporary romcoms for my list. Digital and/or mass market opportunities, depending on author track, writing schedule, and word count. Query + full to my attn via entangledpublishing.submittable.com/submit/ #MSWL

Just updated my website with an extensive #mswl post for when I open to queries next week. If you're thinking of querying me, please be sure to check it out! #askagent #querytip

#MSWL for this. I tend to like mine in the vein of @kitfrick and @LauraTNamey and @jf_smit and @kyriemccauley and @MindyMcGinnis. In case you need some examples. :)

#MSWL so @SoCalledYALife and I can battle over the lovelies 😍

And finally my evergreen #MSWL right now: mermaids. Evil mermaids. Magical realism mermaids. 13th Year Mermaids.

And Ren Faire contemporary.

And Spice Girls friendship break-up MG or YA.

Also really wanting a YA contemporary story that shows teens in juvenile detention or trying to navigate teen life while on probation. #MSWL

Still looking for these too! Really want that updated GIRL: INTERRUPTED for YA readers. Bonus points for LGBTQ+ rep. #MSWL

I spent my vacation reading every Holmes/Watson fic on The Seventeenth Step and am now craving a genuinely queer Sherlock Holmes YA retelling, historical or contemporary #mswl

I really love moments when someone you respect makes an offhand comment that affirms your deepest wishes for the perceptions people have of you. It means little to them at that moment, but it fuels you for years to come. Build these into YA contemp stories for me plz! #MSWL

"A diverse, contemporary YA novel about strong guy friendships. Think Poe and Finn. <3" @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

Interesting article. Like to see this in historical fiction or contemporary fiction with strong female MC. #MSWL

#MSWL: YA fiction: verse novels, serious subject books that are full of humor/candor (think Gae Polisner), female friendship stories, contemporary witches

#MSWL: YA & Adult Fiction - magical realism, southern Gothic, Gothic, vampires, fantasy of all kinds (especially in need of a contemporary fantasy), retellings, rom coms

I had such an amazing time at #alaac19 and in New York! After wonderful conversations with my TBA colleagues and many editors, a few updates to my #MSWL: coming of age literary MG, young illustrated MG, and (still!) contemporary YA, especially diverse voices and/or a rom com.
