Announcing an addition to my #MSWL. We have been seeing some reimagining of legendary folklore or Greek mythology. More of that please. But I'd also love to see a retelling of Hawaiian mythology and/or legends.

#MSWL aside from how incredible the org’s work is, The Nile Swim Club would make a great book title so pls send me your books about swimming and summer and race and family in the city so there can be a book called The Nile Swim Club

Still looking for the perfect (realistic-ish) MG animal novel to add to my list. 🐅 #MSWL

“Middle grade animal stories like Pax by Sara Pennypacker, Silverwing by Kenneth Oppel, Bunnicula by Deborah and James Howe, and Santa Paws by Nicholas Edwards.” @agentvicente  #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation

My kingdom* for an adult horror book that does on the page what Jordan Peele does on the screen #MSWL

*one bedroom apartment with a very needy cat

Head over to our Instagram page to see @SoCalledYALife #MSWL take over!

The Fantasy I am still looking for is:

- fantasy written by and starring BIPOC
- literary poetic prose (especially in MG—think Kelly Barnhill)
- folkloric quality/grounded in history (Alice Hoffman; Rena Rossner; my wonderful client Mary McMyne)

#mswl

Pssst, I have reopened to queries!

The long and short of it is: I'd like to see less Fantasy, and more of other genres (suspense, romance, historical). #mswl

(I am still open to Fantasy. See next tweet).

A suspenseful #MSWL from @jenissamichelle!

"In YA, a buildup in suspense (13 REASONS WHY) with a diverse cast of characters. Similar to EVEN IF WE BREAK by Marieke Nijkamp or ONE OF US IS LYING where different POV's can help drive the plot."
