If you can write me a YA When Harry Met Sally, both thematically and structurally, I will love you forever #MSWL

Craving a YA book with the humor and high fantasy action and powerful queer energy of Thor Ragnarok today, friends, any recs? (Also #mswl)

I need YA mecha sci-fi in my inbox please. #mswl

Also, if someone could send me a YA fantasy rooted in Korean culture, I'll love you forever. #MSWL

So, time for another #MSWL, in the run-up to tomorrow's #askUpstart session. HUMOR, people! I love books that make me laugh, in every category; PB, CB, MG, YA. Here's a couple reasons why:

I would love to find a unique retelling of a fairytale or folktale for the #mg #YA or adult market! #MSWL

"Diverse, geeky #YA love stories. In love with a rival at a video game tournament?" @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl/

I'd love to see a contemporary MG or YA cooking competition like Iron Chef or even something with a little more quirk like Food Wars. #mswl

More #MSWL notes in advance of #AskUpstart on Tue! Spooky, lyrical YA (think CHIME by Franny Billingsley).

I love, love, love historical fiction. It has to be gripping and immersive. I'd love something about the post-WII period, esp if set Berlin. #MSWL

I'm looking for fiction for kids and teens that relates to issues happening in our world right now: the refugee crisis, the opioid epidemic, the Flint, MI water crisis. #MSWL

It's also time for more #MSWL! Generally, I rep all categories of children's and YA books, both fiction and nonfiction. At the moment I'm most hungry for MG and YA fiction.

I'm now open to submissions! Looking for YA & adult sci-fi, fantasy, and historical fiction, especially #ownvoices/queer/feminist stories and graphic novels for all ages and across genres.

Send your query letter + first 5 pages to: tkawar at icmpartners dot com. #MSWL

Though I'm known for my love of dark books, I also love light, funny YA and MG, including romcoms. #MSWL #WishlistWednesday

I love ambitious, literary YA, and would especially like one that's lushly, unabashedly romantic. #MSWL

Stories that are piercingly true to their characters, revealing their layers and deepest feelings -- this goes for every category of children's and YA books. #MSWL

In advance of our #AskUpstart session 8/7, I promised a few new #MSWL notes. I’m looking for “Activist Non-Fiction” (shout-out to @_GinaGagliano!), NF that explores a current issue, engages readers deeply, and calls them to action. YA, MG & Graphic Novels like this – all welcome!

#MSWL: "The Extreme Cyclists of the Navajo Nation" as the backdrop to a MG or YA novel. newyorker.com/culture/photo-…

I'm still looking for culturally rich MG/YA fantasies with inspiration outside of western cultures. #mswl
