#MSWL Transitioning from high school to early college years with a lot of girl friendships, awkwardness, and tons of humor. I want to feel like I'm reading a YA Pitch Perfect with Anna Kendrick's voice in my head.

I’m also open to unusual and/or weird craft or DIY books; smart unexpectedly clever humor (I know it when I see it); artists who elicit unexpected laughter, joy, tears, reflection; books on architecture and design; books with a specific but surprising lens on the world. #MSWL

Heartfelt &/or humorous middle grade that is rich & textured in its characterizations, stylistic choices, language, & telling. Give me subplots & side characters & settings that all work to make a story feel sophisticated & fully-realized & ALIVE. #MSWL #MGOooo yes please #mswl

I just finished rewatching Avatar: The Last Airbender (A PERFECT SERIES), and would love to see an MG with similar humor/stakes! #MSWL

I'm open to vampires! You've just got to give me something different, unique, with a wonderful plot or setting. Still thinking there's so much we can do with New Orleans POC vamps or vamps in island regions.
Also would love vamps with the humor of What We Do In The Shadows #MSWL

For adult, I'd love a contemporary romance with humor. Maybe not full out Bridget Jones, but something that takes realistic elements and makes us giggle at them. #MSWL

I'd love to see a women's fiction/rom com protagonist with the humor of Lilly Singh on A Little Late with Lilly Singh. #MSWL

#MSWL day! What am I looking for?
-surprising hooks, elements, voices
-conflict and tension from sentence #1
-competent ladies getting stuff done
-mystery type plots with clues and games and twists (The Westing Game is an all-time fave)
-legit funny, laugh-out-loud HUMOR
Literary Agent
I gravitate towards humorous, sarcastic, clever books like Jory John. I love punny and clever, and ordinary things turned on their heads and made hilarious. Think THE GREAT INDOORS. #MSWL

there's always room for more MG and picture books on my list, too. contemporary, fantasy, somewhere in between. lots of humor, lots of heart. those MG years are weird, funny, sad, hard, beautiful, and i want to feel alllll of it. take me back. (for better or for worse) #MSWL
Literary Agent
Other random elements I love: historical fiction, witches (historical and contemporary, but less on the humorous side), boarding schools, food, slow build romance, whimsy, retellings...#MSWL

Happy #MSWL day! Here are some projects I'm looking for at @parkrowbooks. (Please note, we only consider MS repped by agents -- even if you've written THE PERFECT BOOK, get that agent first.)Where are you, today's Nora Ephron? I'm wishing for a narrative non-fiction project (memoir/essays) that tackles what women are facing today, written with wit and humor and profound insight. I want to feel like I'm talking to my smartest best friend. #MSWL

Please send me the humorous MG where the main character's voice is like Mitch Hedberg!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 #MSWL
