I would love a MG or YA about life after recovering from illness like ALEXA AND KATIE on Netflix or Barbara Dee’s HALFWAY NORMAL #MSWL

Something I want to see in my inbox: a YA romcom set in space; even better if the main character is BIPOC and extra points if it's LGBTQ+ too! Not too sciencey & not fantasy or characters w/superpowers (other than being smarty pants and/or physically fit). #MSWLI unexpectedly decided to open to #middlegrade and #YoungAdult queries again! 🙃Here's a thread about some of the things I'm hoping for in my inbox. #MSWL 🤞🏽📚☮️❤️🌈

For anyone who doesn't already know me, let me state loud & clear once again: Please send me your #BIPOC #LGBTQ+ #ownvoices #middlegrade & #YoungAdult manuscripts! Look at what I'm asking for in my other #MSWL tweets to see if we'd be a good match. (Ah! So many hashtags!)

And yes, my friends, not to worry, I'm still very much looking for MG & YA books with all types of Jewish rep by ALL types of Jewish people who practice (or don't) all kinds of Judaism. #MSWL

I know everything in the #romance world is on fire, but I have a SEVERE lack of heart-throbbing subs in my inbox.💔If you have an MS with a pair of stubborn/quirky/funny characters who can't help but fall in love, I'm your gal! Can be m/f, m/m, or f/f. #amquerying #mswl

If you write middle grade stories that might be compared to (the incomparable) @Nnedi then you should query me! I LOVE Nnedi Okorafor's books. #MSWL
Linda ~washing hands~ Epstein @LindaEpstein · Jan 8
Some middle grade fantasy books I love are @TaherehMafi's Furthermore; @sofipasternack's Anya & the Dragon; @LaurelSnyder's Orphan Island; EVERYTHING ever written by @kellybarnhill; @AdamGidwitz's The Inquisitors Tale. If you have have a MG like any of these? Query me! #MSWL

Honestly, I'd really like a realistic contemporary YA romcom or romance featuring BIPOC characters! Hit me up with something akin to Jenny Han or Sandhya Menon's books. #MSWL

@diebelra I don't want to diminish the seriousness of the racism Meghan has faced in the UK press, etc., but... you know the fangirl part of my brain is thinking, "See, Henry? You and Alex can do this!"😂 Whereas my terrible editor brain has been trained to say...#MSWL?
(they're real people, Rachel!)

Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan confirm that they are stepping back as senior members of the royal family and will divide their time between the UK and North America.

see previous retweet: I could go for a reindeer herder novel (reflective antler paint optional but encouraged) #mswl
i'm picturing #ownvoices, maybe a coming-of-age. I feel like the setting could make for a great suspense. and/or something that engages with climate change...
I Am Lauren Jernigan 🌜 @LEJerni13
You know how there’s definitely a production assistant running the AI system via Remote Desktop for #TheCircleNetflix contestants? I want a romance story about one falling in love with their contestant and helping them not say stupid things to other players.I JUST SAID I wasn't going to do these anymore, but... #MSWL
