I also refute the YA is dead nonsense. It just needs some love #SCBWIchat twitter.com/guppybooks/sta…
Replying to @HollyRoseWrites

I so agree with this. It does need to be special. The market is super-competitive. But stand-out YA will find a home. Send me your YA love stories and unreliable narrators! :-) #scbwichat #mswl

#A6 I’d love to find an exciting MG mystery/detective story, especially if it’s funny too! I’m also always on the lookout for great YA with an unreliable narrator or an intense and overwhelming love story. #SCBWIchat #mswl

Listen to those lyrics sung by and to a transwoman. The meaning is only elevated and deepened. They make more sense. They meet today. I haven't seen the show as a whole, but I can only imagine that casting people of color does the same.

These choices apply to writing just the same. I am interested in inclusion that is just this purposeful, layered, and (as James Cordon so perfectly says) "beautiful." I want to see a YA with this Seymour and Audrey. #MSWL

I’m not much of a horror fan, but it just struck me that I’d love to see a YA along the lines of IT FOLLOWS. Something scary as hell that addresses teen sexuality (but is sex-positive, not moralizing) #mswl

Full #MSWL to be posted this week on the agency's site and Pub Marketplace. But if you have a MG, YA, children's graphic novel proposal, are a PB author/illustrator, or write women's fiction, send me your queries following Greenhouse Literary's sub guidelines!

Ok agents. Give me some MG or YA journalist books in which kids on their school papers learn what it really means to be fair and balanced. The power of the press is real and amazing; let’s show young readers its might and its responsibility. #MSWL
