Exactly this. #mswl

MG/YA ORPHAN BLACK. One of my fave TV shows. Love the balance of the scifi, intrigue, & the family dynamics. #mswl twitter.com/susanhawk/stat…

In MG, I'd love to see body image tackled honestly and thoughtfully, in a fresh way. #MSWL

Middle grade mystery, smart, funny w/heart & sense of place (think Greenglass House), positive familial relations #MSWL

An American Agatha Christie, for MG or YA! #MSWL

HUMOR. If you're writing something funny - esp like wry, smart humor - I'd love to see it. PB, CB, MG, YA. #MSWL

STEM-focused middle grade or YA, strong female MCs-bonus points for diverse, POC #MSWL

I'd love a fantasy that's based on American tall tales and folklore. YA or MG. #MSWL

I'm always looking for YA or MG fantasy. Want it to feel NEW, and to really sweep me away. #MSWL

Always liked stories about cloning. If you have an original take on this theme, send it along! MG or YA. #MSWL

Interested in MG or YA that deals with the struggle of faith, what it's like to be a doubter in a community of believers. #MSWL

If you have MG or YA about the early days of TV, or radio at it's height, send my way! #MSWL

I'd love MG or YA that's set in the 1950s - anything about the post-WWII world. #MSWL

Middle grade versions of Fresh Off the Boat and Blackish. #mswl

Creepy middle grade that's more about the emotion than the horror factor--like that you'd see from Neil Gaiman or Holly Black. #mswl

I'm going to squeeze in one #mswl request today. Please give me an emotional and heartwarming MG about a kid and their pet!

Surprising MG and YA that breaks new ground, POVs that are under-represented, particularly from #OwnVoices creators. #MSWL

A kid-and-her-dog MG novel with depth and complexity, a la BECAUSE OF WINN DIXIE. It's a high bar because I am in love with that book. #MSWL

And I think the best MG fiction makes me look at "basic" human emotions (love, grief, loneliness) anew, through the eyes of a kid. #MSWL

I want to be surprised in the realm of MG, YA, and adult fiction. Pirates! Epic love! Plus-sized protags! Creepy tales! Historicals! #MSWL
