Thank you to the TikTok video my kids were watching this morning. May I please have a contemporary YA set in a boarding school. Could be bubbly, could be broody. You do you. #MSWL

While I'm at it, a quick #MSWL of things I would love to see right now:

- Big-hearted contemporary MG
- MG horror
- A domestic thriller
- YA thriller/horror
- YA/A speculative/light sci-fi (think Black Mirror)
- MG/YA/A with a culinary theme

Teenage Dirtbag comes up on my playlist and I now want to read a f/f YA Contemporary Romance embodiment of this song. #mswl

#MSWL HARD. CORE.

Thank you, @hwhittenwrites!!!

My top three (that I see in my box) are YA Fantasy, Fantasy, and Horror.

I'm desperate for more Romance and Contemporary in YA. Also, I'd love more MG. #AskAgent #mswl

I would love to read a YA contemporary with an incredibly strong friendship, a la Amy and Molly in BOOKSMART. Bonus points if the conflict does NOT stem from romance/love interest complications (between the friends or another character)! #MSWL

I cosign this #MSWL

I'm on the hunt for a juicy and high concept Contemporary YA. Bring on those big hooks! #mswl

ANATOMY OF A SCANDAL and MIRACLE CREEK were two of my favorite reads from the past few years. Anyone with a fresh courtroom drama touching on contemporary issues, please please query me! #mswl

I am back. Give me something unique. Give me something fierce. I am ready #MSWL (agented- contemporary fiction, mystery/thrillers, YA)

Catching up on subs and i notice i have excellent YA here, but not much MG! #mswl WHEN I REOPEN: I really want to work on more MG! Commercial or literary—give me your big series hooks, magic, light and fun contemporary, hopeful stories touching on tough topics, queer characters!!

I'm wondering why I almost never get queried with contemporary manuscripts. Perhaps it's the 'all genres' that's making people shy away...

Is anyone out there writing rom-coms or contemporary with fresh twists?

I love contemporary too. :)

#amquerying #writingcommunity

Yes, certain genres! MG fantasy and contemp, YA contemp, and picture books with certain themes on my #MSWL

Contemporary horror set in NYC. Gimmie haunted apartments, office buildings, subways (can you imagine 😱)! #MSWL

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

Still REALLY looking for this updated YA Girl: Interrupted sort of story! #MSWL

If I missed your #PitDark pitch, paste query & 1st 5 pages in email. Adult: horror, thriller, SFF, cont. romance, & mystery. YA: thriller, SFF, horror, mystery, & cont. MG: SFF, mystery, cont., & horror. #diversity #MSWL #ownvoices querylynnette (@) theseymouragency (.) com

I am open to select Middle Grade projects - fantasy and contemporary. I want to see really unique characters from backgrounds less-often explored in MG. I definitely want to see LGBTQ+ protags and families, other unexpected family structures, & mental health conversations. #MSWL

Rewatching Witches of East End. I love the Killian/Freya/Dash love triangle, the curse on Ingrid and Freya, and the family dynamics between the Beauchamp women.

As always, I want contemporary witches in my inbox, and I wouldn't complain if they had any of these plotlines. #MSWL

if you gave me a Dark and Edgy YA contemporary about a group of friends solving mysteries with their dog and their van i’m not not going to enjoy it #mswl
