I often worry about the enormous focus on “high concept” right now in YA and the larger implications of ignoring stories that are “quiet” on the surface but explosive in their power to make you think and feel. The books where “nothing happens but everything happens.” We need them#MSWL 👇🏻👇🏽👇🏿
Have a book that's even remotely comparable to the quiet power of Saving Francesca? Send it my way!

As promised, here’s a little more info about my #mswl for Labyrinth Road! (Thread)Some additional more specific elements that often call to me within these below frameworks are Jewish representation, and themes of absent father/daughter angst or difficult mother/daughter dynamics. #mswl

I remain committed to my platform of sex positivity in YA, de-stigmatization of desire & sex, & inclusive (& intersectional!) representation for diverse sexual & gender identities.

Editor
On the YA side, whether fantastical or realistic, I gravitate toward books w/ high concept hooks and stories anchored in themes of identity, sexuality, & loss & grief. (Grief & sex can be complex labyrinths to navigate, as we know...).

Editor
Graphic & hybrid novels & series are welcome too! Some examples there from my past titles would be DORK DIARIES and THE OKAY WITCH. Quintessential MG stories about finding your way through the labyrinth of family, school, & friendship twists and turns.

As promised, here’s a little more info about my #mswl for Labyrinth Road! (Thread)First & foremost—epic, accessible, *character-driven* MG fantasy & adventure series! I’m excited to build series that could sit well alongside my previous projects like KEEPER OF THE LOST CITIES, STORY THIEVES, THE UNWANTEDS, FABLEHAVEN.

"Dark, twisted, borderline disturbing… words I’d use to describe my interest in thrillers. Not looking for gore at the moment, but definitely into psychological elements. Especially fictionalized accounts of actual crimes." @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

This year I’ve started and become obsessed with Grey’s Anatomy (yes, I know, only this year.) AND it’s got me longing to acquire some new romances for #HarlequinMedical 1/2 pic.twitter.com/wvDE1B8l41Please please help feed my obsession. I’m particularly interested in submissions from authors from underrepresented communities. #editorobsession #MSWL 2/2
