💔 Stories that center on complicated history, trickery and deceit, and a full cast of characters just trying to get by (and slay some baddies). Think INUYASHA. If you know, you know. 😭😭😭 YA. #MSWL

💞 Family means everything to me and I'm a sucker for stories that feature big, multigenerational, immigrant families. 🎁 Have a story that has a treasure trove of family history? 💫 Bonus points for multilingual households and prose that keeps me up at night. YA or MG. #MSWL

💫 Nowruz/Sale Now 💫 has always felt so magical to me. It reminds me of new beginnings, of spring overcoming darkness, of the feeling of change just beyond the horizon.
Have something that captures this feeling? I want it. 👀 Bonus points for humor and romance. YA or MG.

“YA non-fiction: Memoir, essay collections, you name it. Queer There & Everywhere is probably my favorite YA non-fic title in recent memory, and a great example of what I’d like to see.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

I rewatched the movie The Covenant & decided that the Sons of Ipswich storylines would make a great YA series. Is that a thing already? If not, someone write it & send it to me! I’m a junior agent so, I’m not sure I’m allowed to #MSWL but oh well, I’m going rogue!

I could really use some funny YA. #MSWL

Gimme dark Victorian mysteries and horror, not about Jack the Ripper. This goes for YA and adult. #MSWL

#MSWL A: Literary fiction and upmarket works in most genres. YA: Voice-driven contemporary, fantasy, or paranormal. NF: Platform-driven memoirs and Christian inspirational. #WritingCommunity

Coronavirus Lockdowns Are Creating Big Challenges For Deaf Students Being Forced To Leave College. Fascinating article #MSWL in #YA buzzfeed.com/briannasacks/d…

I’d love to find a high concept contemporary YA with a surprising narrative device/structure. Think Fleishman Is In Trouble for a young adult/crossover audience. #MSWL

Agented only #MSWL: adult historical (ripped from the headlines or little known stories), upmarket women's fiction, Millenial fiction, college set fiction (YA or adult)

Agented only #MSWL things I want across YA and adult: crossover fantasy (contemporary and not), magical realism, rom coms, rom sads, family stories, witches, vampires

House-bound #MSWL I’m looking for the next big YA or adult rom-com with a unique, compelling premise and #diverse characters #OwnVoices #MSWL #makemecry

More #ownvoices queer and trans love stories in YA would be excellent! And YA graphic novels, too.

YA / crossover is the big one, and there I'm looking for new takes on big commercial / genre, as well as funny, uplifting, voice-led novels, and (always) teen books full of sex, politics and content that teenagers actually want to read but that gatekeepers are sh*t scared of...

“I’d really love to get more YA horror in my inbox. Smart horror. I don’t want gore, I want a story that creeps me out, and asks questions I don’t want answers to.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

I'm largely a kids and YA agent, but I do also represent adult work - especially bold non-fiction with a clear hook and (often) socially progressive aspect - feminism; socialism; environmentalism; internationalism; mental health; prison reform - I'd love to see it.

I also love horror horror - YA, middle-grade, even commercial-literary adult fiction. Creepy, cinematic psychological horror with some kind of genre twist or social justice message would be an absolute dream.

This is weirdly specific (blame my subconscious) but I’d love to see a YA where the MC is dealing with the fallout of a parent’s very public arrest as a serial killer, and the true crime aficionados and podcasters who now hound their family. #MSWL
