#MSWL I want a middle grade that reminds me of Anne of Green Gables.

#MSWL
In YA and MG:
✔️ That quirky kid who cares so much about science and their "work" that pressures from social standings/social media never touch them. Humor's a must!

I love upper MG where kids are trusted with more depth of emotion and experience. Think settings like Everlasting Nora by @cruzwrites. Conflict and struggle like The Night Diary by @VeeraHira #MSWL

#MSWL #MG please. No high fantasy, horror, sci fi but otherwise I will be open to (end of Sept), especially to #diverse voices, strong hooks, compelling plot, amazing characters. Even better if humor laced throughout drama or drama laced throughout humor.

I love advocating for creators, but especially marginalized creators. I could really use more adult SF/F and MG in my inbox! #MSWL

Likable YA and MG characters who do unlikable things. Think Donna Tartt's Theo in the Goldfinch. #mswl
