Hey writers! I won’t be able to participate in #SFFpit for long today, but I’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 genre—sci-fi horror, sci-fi fantasy (I’d die for a YA Gideon the Ninth!), sci-fi mystery/thriller, etc.

The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a ~vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel. A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we've picked up actual sound. Here it's amplified, and mixed with other data, to hear a black hole! pic.twitter.com/RobcZs7F9e

I want a YA sci-if horror with this sound in it. #mswl

I need more camping and hiking horror. Like you know how fish get scarier the closer you get to the bottom of the ocean? I need that to be true for animals when you get too deep into the woods

I also need this! #MSWL

If so, #MSWL

Alex Brown 🐀 (they/them) - Ignyte & Hugo finalist @QueenOfRats

Was trying to put together a list of trad pub from the last 10 years YA horror and SF alien books by Black authors and with Black MCs and hit a wall. There are too few of these titles, publishing industry! Give me more! My students will devour them.

Give me all the Black YA Horror! You know we would actually be the ones to survive of horror movies mimicked real life. #MSWL

Although it petrifies me, I desperately want a horror with this vibe. Nothing is worse than the unknown terror of what swims beneath you, older than any man. #MSWL
