Nonfiction: self-help, memoirs, cookbooks, lifestyle, and how-to.

A century ago in New York, a very large wedding took place โ not in spite of the Spanish flu epidemic ravaging the city but precisely because of it nyti.ms/2AxaMdpThis is the kind of obscure Eastern European Jewish superstition content I am here for. (Though this is pretty macabre.) And if you managed to weave it into a YA novel with the actual magical part? Yes. #mswl

The first enemies-to-lovers was Epic of Gilgamesh, 1800 BC out of Mesopotamia. The next person who claims a YA white person invented the trope will have dishonor on their family and cow.CORRECT, AND I AM STILL WAITING FOR MY YA RETELLING, OK? #mswl

Looking for both YA and adult contemporary stories of #ownvoices and #POC. Raw, honest voices. Real emotions, with a commercial hook. Please query me. I am always, always on the hunt for great storytellers. #MSWL

โYA 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 Iโd like to see.โ @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl
I am hungry for YA novels in verse in the same vein as POET X by @ElizabethC05172, LONG WAY DOWN by @JasonReynolds83, or SHOUT by @halseanderson. Give me your strong voices and lyrical prose. #MSWL
