#mswl - a sweeping middle grade series with heart and humor! Related, but more specifically: a middle grade series with puzzle-y elements. And, always, middle grade with magic, especially cozy magic!âCozy magicâ is my new eternal wish list item. EXTREME bonus points if I get a magical school with it. #mswl

#MSWL Please please please adult epic fantasy that delves into class politics or social issues in societies I've never seen before, with articulate female/nb/trans MAIN characters & explosive stakes. Lots of magic, lots of emotion, romance welcome!

âEveryone freaked out. Nothing like this had ever happened in my work before." A mysterious painting was discovered behind a wall at a new Oscar de la Renta boutique in Paris. nyti.ms/2FQoecwI LOVE hidden in plain sight discoveries like this. #MSWL a story with a jumping-off point like this, sâil vous plait, but turn it into middle grade & perhaps add some â¨magicâ¨!

#MSWL I would love to get a magical realism book. Something like SAWKILL GIRLS, or WICKED DEEP.

Iâd love to have a YA set in Ancient Egypt. It can be historical, or a YA fantasy with magic, and gods and all the details. This is something Iâve always wanted to read! Send me some! #MSWL

Magical realism is something I love overall and would like to see more of, both in YA and adult. Would love to have some Latinx voices in for this one! #MSWL

I'd love to see some adult fiction set in the seedy, gritty underbelly of an 18th- or 19th-century city. A super immersive setting with magic? A mystery? Both?? Whaddaya got for me #amquerying writers? #mswl
