What I do love to see in the YA Contemporary field are thrillers, hauntings that can toe the line of horror without going overboard, rom-coms, friendship break ups, and grandparent relationships. I especially love to see all this with BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+ characters. #mswl

I'd love a book club (still commercial) submission that explores the concept of love between friends in a non-toxic way and the impact of those 'breakups' and how people change together over time. It's huge and devastating and so often glossed over. #mswl

Agents! I am eager for new, exciting acquisitions and I updated my #mswl to prove it! Check out what I’m looking for here (spoiler alert: subversive horror, witty rom coms, & unique genre mash-ups): manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/alis…

i'm finally open to queries! check out what I want here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/kati… on #MSWL and query me here: querymanager.com/query/2696

Well, the secret's out. YA has crept into my heart through some of my clients so I am opening queries to the rest of y'all. :)

I'm looking for: YA horror (lite), YA paranormal (ghost stories), and YA thriller. Keep it weird and spooky, my friends. #mswl

Friendship stories—break up, make up, fall in love…any of the above, any age category. There DOES NOT need to be a romantic element.

"Intense, twisty stories about best friends set against the backdrop of competitive, high-stakes, art-based industries: this is what I live for!"

So excited to be back open to queries (a little late thanks to covid). Send me your mysteries, thrillers, complex families, kids on bikes (moms/older friends on bikes, too) and Midwest/prairie-set stories. Full #mswl @ nelsonagency.com

At last, I have a profile on ManuscriptWishList.com. My current wish list is live, though I'll continue to tweet new and specific items as they come to me. #MSWL

In all things, I love enemies to lovers, enemies to friends, lovers in denial, reluctant heroines/heroes, underdogs, close family bonds, faux baddie, I’m missing a ton, but there’s only so much space – I love a lot and the premise and strong writing will be what hook me. #MSWL

“I love novels that deal with female relationships. Think: best friends; mother-and-daughter(s); sisters (including twins!); sisters-in-law; mother-in-law and daughter-in-law; and girlfriends.” @ceciliaclyra #MSWL

Late to the party, but I finished the absolutely brilliant Heartstopper🧡👏, and like Skins, SKAM, and Sex Education, I’m desperate for more complicated/positive depictions of friendships, gender, sexuality & coming of age #MSWL *open till August, hit me up before end of month!

I’m also interested in a friendship YA or MG that comps to SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING PANTS, but with an entirely BIPOC cast. #MSWL

“Unlikely friendship novels with heavy plot & a feel-good ending.” @carlywatters #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

I'd like a friendship thriller in the vein of Dead to Me. #MSWL

I'm still looking for a great YA friendship breakup story, in the vein of Ashley Woodfolk and Amy Spalding, with or without a romance component. #MSWL

I'd love to see more friendship stories in my inbox about women of color, in the vein of FIONA AND JANE by Jean Chen Ho! #MSWL

A thrilling #MSWL from @BookEndsJessica:

"Domestic suspense featuring anything but a cis-het marriage. Like work, friendship, parent/child. Recently read and loved THE GOLDEN COUPLE, MY SWEET GIRL, THE PUSH."

Okay, #BigBoys on #Channel4 was everything I wanted it to be and more. Any YA in this vein / themes exploring friendship, queerness, masculinity, mental health / books that look at the British uni experience in an open & honest way - please send them straight into my inbox #MSWL
