Thought I'd share my fiction #MSWL as I prepare to open! As mentioned, my list will be 60/40 towards MG/YA, the rest adult. I don't have much MG so during my first open query week, I will be considering MG only. However, I'll do different genres and age-groups each month, so🧵

#MSWL Give me boy-centric middle grade firmly in the 10-13 (think Space Case, Hatchet) category & also give me boy-centric younger YA perfect for 14-16 year old's. Think The Shadow Road, Patrick Ness books. Reference this in referral line with MSWL boy MG 10-13 / 14-16.

Specific #MSWL :
A fun, pace-y (maybe humorous) mystery series for MG or YA à la A STUDY IN CHARLOTTE, TROUBLE IS A FRIEND OF MINE, THE FOURTH STALL, Stuart Gibbs’ SPACE CASE or FunJungle books, or an updated Nancy Drew or Trixie Belden (especially Trixie Belden!).
Specific #MSWL :
I’d love a snappy, highly commercial YA series with a sticky hook and a memorable/endearing main character; probably contemporary (any subgenre), comparable to what GALLAGHER GIRLS was but with an unrelated premise.

A few more days left of being open to querying! I'd LOVE to see a good Clue style mystery in the MG or YA space! #MSWL

I want to read YA that passes the Vito Russo test. #mswl

Tidbits on what I’m hunting: adult/YA horror; romance (sweet, dark, steam; romcoms, meet cutes, sports hero protagonists, etc.); thrillers/psych susp.; YA dark academia; adult/YA fantasy/romantasy (r’masy must be very unique); & more. Read #mswl #WritingCommmunity #amquerying
