#mswl - books that emphasize the bridge between science and the arts; I went through a phase years ago where I read a lot of books on the history of math; NF pbs that are written using a super engaging hook or concept

#mswl - amazing stories about what human, animal or plant bodies can do (e.g. more like on a cellular/biology level, not biographies); NF books about scientific discoveries made by LGBTQIA+, BIPOC or neurodiverse people; a how-to book for teens about divestment and eco-activism;

Tracy WANTS A NAP Marchini @TracyMarchini
...here's the not fully formed part - how to write and concept it so that it's super engaging to a trade picture book or middle grade audience. (That's where you come in, writers!)some other science-related #mswl's (ugh, forgive the grocer's apostrophe). Space, astronomy, astrophysics. A book about how going to the moon now would be different than it was when the US went in 1969 (technology changes, etc.) for kids or teens.

Okay so I saw #Booksmart and am having all the feelings. But the biggest feeling I have is that I want someone to make (or maybe I want to make?) a South Asian female friendship love story because OMG I AM Amy. Or Molly. Or both. I don't know. FEELINGS.Literary Agent
#mswl - I would love to see a trade NF book exploring antarctica and climate change. (This idea is not fully formed, so bear with me...) So like, why protecting antarctica is important, who "owns" antarctica, what is actually physically present (animals, research stations, etc)..

Would love a thriller written by a POC or featuring POC characters #MSWL

Bria Sandford @blsandford
Pride and Prejudice, except the Bennets are trying to marry off their large adult sonsBria! This sounds excellent. I'm going to put this on my #MSWL. If someone wants to write this novel, I'll take it, and then Bria will have to figure out how to persuade Penguin Random House to acquire it on her non-fiction list. 🤨

If you've been waiting on a response from me, thanks for your patience! I'm rolling myself back into the query pile this weekend, and seriously hungry for new stuff. #MSWL

Faber & Faber @FaberBooks
Hear @grahamfarmelo interviewing some of the great names in science and mathematics in his podcast series to accompany his new book The Universe Speaks in Numbers soundcloud.com/faberbooks/set… pic.twitter.com/bcgsiVilbiNice. This sounds utterly genius. Do I love good popular maths & sciences. #MSWL -- again, if anyone knows of or is an academic in some innovative research that could find a home on the popular/trade market, I'm interested in learning more.

In the Middle-Ages it was believed that if a witch got hold of a child’s discarded teeth the child could fall under the witch’s control.So paying the Tooth Fairy to safely dispose of teeth is a bit like paying to have confidential documents shredded.

I love a bottle episode... of tv, in a movie, or for a book! (As always, bonus points if said bottle is actually a spooky mansion or creepy island) #mswl
