#MSWL Agents, I've been seeing some fantastic YA sff subs. I'll never say no to sff that captures my heart, but I'm also on the lookout for gorgeously written verse/prose, layered coming-of-age (historical or contemp) esp if it weaves in queer romance and/or mystery/suspense.

Hereβs what Iβd love to find in my inbox:
A stellar suspense manuscript written by a POC.
The suspense shelf is full of white women, and while they are very talented, we definitely need to diversify this section of the bookstore.
