It looks like there are a bunch of trans kidlit writers coming out with books in the next couple years, which is great, but...I'm not sure if there are any trans women? Which is the opposite of acceptable.My client list is super queer but I am definitely on the lookout for stories by trans women, both in fiction and non-fiction! We need these stories. I represent all ages, but primarily focus on childrens, picture books through YA! #mswl

Mulan: I don't like being a girl, I feel uncomfortable with my appearance, I don't like my gender role, but if I changed it my family would be so upset!Disney: sounds like some real cisgender content here!

My (30 M) girlfriend (30 F) buried all of my beans in the woods and won't tell me where, causing a fight between us. pic.twitter.com/bPBcSd1n0nThe perfect Jack and the Beanstalk, but with preppers, retelling for the modern era. Add it to my #MSWL, but make it queer, pls.

Where are my joyful stories featuring #POC characters? Diversity pls! Black, Latinx, Asian, Indian, Native American, etc. This term gets read over a lot in my #MSWL’s. For those who don’t know, POC refers to the term "person of color” & describes any person NOT considered white.So much #mswl! poc and lgbtq+ individuals just being people and living life!

I'd love rom com LGBT in GN form. Cute meets and fun debacles and rich angst/drama! #amagenting #querytip

Also hungry for contemporary with LGBT, mental health, and disability rep. Not necessarily issue book plots for GN, but characters in their lives (I'd LOVE Fantasy with disability rep!) #amagenting #querytip

Kit "PREORDER DERBY DAREDEVILS" Rosewater @kitrosewater
If you want a female, queer feminist Sandlot crew... if you loved the dynamics of the kids in Stranger Things... if you loved Roller Girl... if you wanted Whip It to be queer... then you'll love THE DERBY DAREDEVILS! #kidlitgoesviral twitter.com/AmieKaufman/st…I know this author is talking about her book that already exists, and which you should go buy, but also big #MSWL for anything that sounds like this!
