#MSWL A YA that encapsulates the song “Who I’d Be” from Shrek the Musical. But specifically the Rachel Zegler version.

This is your friendly reminder I open to queries TOMORROW! I'll be open to PB-YA and I can't wait to see all of your amazing projects! Here is a link to my updated #MSWL :

Looking for dragons and witchy graphic novels (kids or YA) #kidseditor #mswl #kidlit #WritingCommunity

I am now also open to Contemporary YA Romance. After fully submersing myself in The Summer I Turned Pretty (TSITP) both the series & books, I'll take a heavy dose of male yearning & emotionally aware (internalized like Conrad or external good too) male leads please. #MSWL

I'd really love to work on a YA suspense novel this year! I'm looking for stories that aren't murder mysteries, but instead follow a teenager trying to tackle an unjust system in their local community.

I want to read a YA contemporary novel that dives deep into teenage bisexual angst. Something like The Last True Poets of the Sea, or Don't Let It Break Your Heart (though now that I think of it, I'm not sure if any of those characters are bi... that's the vibe, though).

I'd love to read some YA or adult horror stories from indigenous voices, and more broadly, horror stories that use a speculative lens to examine topics of racial identity.

Bonus points for YA rom-coms:
-butch love interest
-autistic protagonists
-former athletes rediscovering their identity after an injury or health crisis that ends their career within the sport
-protagonist thinks they're nemeses and love interest thinks they've been flirting for years

I haven't received as many YA rom-coms as I'd like yet. I want stories that are heavy on the com, and have subplots with a lot of depth that inform the development of the rom. #mswl

I'm on the hunt for an exciting anti-colonialist YA or adult fantasy. Something along the lines of Skin of the Sea, So Let Them Burn, or Babel. #mswl

I think the new YA dystopian i want to see definitely involves capitalism #mswl

Stay tuned for my Fall 2026 #MSWL ! I mean, honestly, it’ll mainly call for blood, guts, lust, and queers but I’ll figure out a way to show I have well-round rounded tastes 😌

Cokd war spy fantasy in YA #MSWL

Agent friends: I zoomed through the audiobook of VERITY VOX AND THE CURSE OF FOXFIRE this weekend and it was great and had everything I want in a YA fantasy. Cool witchy magic! A fun voice! Cozy, but still important stakes! SAPPHIC!!!

If you have anything like this, send it my way? :) #MSWL

I have been asking for a YA just like these and I swear this one is going to make me want a mystery even more #MSWL

"For YA fantasy, I would love a propulsive retelling that is distinct and fiery with something important to say. Think FOR SHE IS WRATH by Emily Varga."
Marina Green #MSWL

So in my YA, NA, and Adult list, this is some of the vibes I am looking for. Escapism is the name of the game there. #MSWL

I am full up on romance and romantasy unless your project REALLY stands out.

What I am NOT full up on is suspense, book club, and YA! #mswl #writincommunity

(Please feel free to cross post this on other social platforms)

Would really love to see more YA thrillers-slash-mysteries, especially those similar to CWs Nancy Drew. #mswl

Second half 2025 #MSWL :
-an YA Fantasy that feels fresh
-a sweeping epic YA romance
-a great YA mystery (LOVE Rian Johnson and if you can comp to the vibes there, even better)
-a YA mermaid book where the mermaids don't speak (I could go into the science, but I won't
