Love YA and MG protags dealing with unique medical, emotional and psych issues. #MSWL #YA #MG

"Fantasy, sci-fi, contemporary, your pretty-much-any-genre in YA." @ericsmithrocks #MSWL bit.ly/1dbOPj8

#MSWL Basically, I want #YA/#MG that doesn't assume that only kids from middle class homes can be happy and healthy. SUBVERT THE TROPES.

As always, I'm dying for lush magical realism—#MG & #YA. If you're not familiar w/the (very specific) subgenre michellewittebooks.com/2015/07/what-i… #MSWL

.@Cavewooman I ALWAYS want stories about siblings and families. YA books can have teens living in functional, loving families. Really. #MSWL

#MSWL I'm not into "issue" books in YA as they're often preachy or melodramatic. But if I connect deeply & emotionally w/protagonist—SOLD

#MSWL I reallyreallyreally want YA focused on family relationships between sisters, mom. Need something while I'm waiting for Gilmore Girls.

Lovers who are rivals who keep trying to one up each other. I want to see some competitiveness. #mswl #a #r #hr #YA

Love/hate relationships. They always fight, but when one of them gets hurt the other will do anything to protect them #mswl #r #ya #a

Unique settings: icy wasteland, island, outer space, circus, mountaintop, etc... lots of great world building #mswl #ya #f #sf #a

Contemporary #mg and #ya about competitive kids and teens (sports, art, theater, science, cooking, etc.) #mswl

Dying for a ms about Qutulun (mongolian princess wrestler), Tomoe Gozen (female samurai) or Ching Shih (female pirate) #mswl #f #hf #ya

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon style Asian influence fantasy. Similar to the amazing works by @cindypon #mswl #mg #ya #f

Bilingual protaonists. Teens dealing w their cultural heritage. Especially more Hispanic and Latino stories, but others too. #mswl #ya #mg

Family stories. Kids and their grandparents, siblings bonding and clashing, teens realizing their parents are only human #mswl #mg #ya #pb

Cryptozoologist adventure caper, real world or fantasy world. Lots of monsters. Humorous. #MSWL #SF #F #A or #YA

Looking for #YA #T #MSWL

SciFi about human evolution set in near or far future a la Greg Bear's DARWIN'S RADIO. Strong character development. #MSWL #A or #YA #SF

Historical fiction about ballet set in NYC, Russia, or France. Preferably written by a dancer (pro or amateur). #MSWL #A or #YA #HF
