I also refute the YA is dead nonsense. It just needs some love #SCBWIchat twitter.com/guppybooks/sta…
Replying to @HollyRoseWrites

I so agree with this. It does need to be special. The market is super-competitive. But stand-out YA will find a home. Send me your YA love stories and unreliable narrators! :-) #scbwichat #mswl

#A6 Illustrators: so hard to define what you’re looking for here! But a portfolio full of animal and child characters in a distinctive, consistent style is always exciting to see. #mswl #scbwichat #scbwicon19

#A6 I’d love to find an exciting MG mystery/detective story, especially if it’s funny too! I’m also always on the lookout for great YA with an unreliable narrator or an intense and overwhelming love story. #SCBWIchat #mswl

Historical fiction that showcases diversity and tells the kind of historical stories we're not used to hearing, and the kind of historical figures we're not used to seeing #mswl

Darker, issue-led women's fiction, and books about difficult or challenging family dynamics that we might not have seen before #mswl
