Last tweet has reminded me of the Note Notebooks I maintained with friends in elementary school that were a sort of shared diary interwoven with ridiculousness (bizarre stories, Weird Qwizzes, general goofiness). The group chat of my youth.On that note, #MSWL for a sincere but funny middle grade novel about kids facing real world stakes who are also just unapologetically little weirdoes.

After visiting Burano, a center of lace-making in the Venice lagoon for centuries, I’d love to find a book about the Italian girls kidnapped by the French court to use their skills exclusively for the French king. #MSWL pic.twitter.com/Z7nIco33idUm. Me too 👀 #mswl

Best time to query an agent? When their inbox is getting low, and their partial/full box is getting low. Guess what, peeps! It’s THAT time! Check my pinned tweet to see what I’m acquiring. #amquerying #MSWL #writingcommunity
