First and foremost: MIDDLE GRADE. I am extremely hungry for a big middle grade series with stellar world building, cool magic, and a strong emotional core. I love my middle grade with lots of heart that works hand-in-hand with the high stakes adventure. #mswl

But I also want narrative nonfiction that isn't just biographies. I want to learn things about the world. Chemistry is cool! Also biology *while cool* can be gross and cool. #MSWL #PB

For picture books, I tend to lean towards a more commercial edge. And humor, with a heart of gold is 100% where my heart lies. #MSWL

A riveting YA or adult adventure novel featuring outdoor sports - a hiker, a climber, an ultramarathoner? A YA about teens hiking the Appalachian Trail or the PCT?!

One of my dream #MSWL items is an adventure novel that reads like a film like FREE SOLO or THE BARKLEY MARATHONS feels. An edge-of-your-seat outdoors story with near-superhuman athleticism. I’ve spent all of quar hiking & watching ALONE so I’ve had too much time to dwell on this.

Avoiding toxic positivity is extremely reflective of my picture book taste 😀. Let's feel our feelings, people! #mswl washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/well…

Updated my #MSWL this morning. Writers, check it out! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/kell…

I’m especially keen to see funny or lyrical picture book texts/dummies, author-illustrated young fiction, magical middle grade, literary and/or funny and/or high concept YA, clever non-fiction angles… and diverse voices in all of the above.

Whimsical & specific #MSWL time. Send me your diverse MG adventures where the kids go wild in a fashion industry setting, think a big and beautiful bridal shop a la Say Yes to the Dress or a designer's home office or flagship. (1/2)

Excited to say that I now have a #mswl. Please send me all the things! bit.ly/3gv3aHY

I'm currently closed to queries but I am ALWAYS interested about science themed PBS, including earth science, physics and chemistry! (My second picture book as an author also features the six simple machines - PRINCESSES CAN FIX IT! @PageStreetKids 5/4/21) #MSWL

I would love to see some great picture books for these sciences. I had second grade patrons who wanted these! #MSWL
