"Sci-fi & fantasy novels. I love them. I read a ton of them. But they have to be accessible.What does that mean? It means that readers who don't traditionally pick up much sci-fi/fantasy, can pick up one of these novels & enjoy it." @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

Beware the Slenderman on HBO is really messed up, but fascinating. Absolutely worth the watch. (And because it’s on my mind, I would love a book about something like this. #MSWL)

Dear authors, I would LOVE to see more thrillers and suspense novels in my submissions inbox! If anyone's currently querying or has a manuscript with a killer concept tucked in a drawer, please send it our way.

Other things that make my agent heart sing: high concepts, voicey narration, fantasy (especially with a unique twist), lush historical settings, fresh paranormal, boarding schools, sister stories, falling in & out of friendship, dark & atmospheric, setting as character. #MSWL

My picture book #MSWL changed recently: I’m looking for author-illustrators (instead of text only projects) but I will make an exception for contests (like DVPit!), critiques, and conferences.

I’m especially on the lookout for YA rom coms (TO ALL THE BOYS I’VE LOVED BEFORE; RED, WHITE, AND ROYAL BLUE), MG contemporary (A SONG FOR A WHALE; EVENTOWN), MG historical (WAR THAT SAVED MY LIFE; PRARIE LOTUS), and graphic novels (NEW KID, LAURA DEAN) #MSWL

#MSWL includes all YA/MG/PB except fantasy. I'm hungry for something that grabs me in from the first line and totally distracts me from COVID worries. stringerlit.com

#mswl I'd love to see a Romeo/Juliet retelling outside the US/Europe. Rival tech/business mogul families? Something Filipino with rich worldbuilding? Count me in.
