Would love literary fiction or non-fiction about generational wealth and POCs who move outside of the socio-economic class structure they are born into. #MSWL

(This is why so much advice to writers is read, read, read: you can only see what's new if you already know what's old) #MSWL #querytip #amqueryingAs a reminder, for fiction & NF I like: #ownvoices; campus novels; narratives featuring chronic illness, disability, nonbinary, queer characters; gentrification from POC perspectives; complications caused by class differences; books that make me think & laugh #MSWL #amquerying

Obviously interracial relationships don't end racism but tbh I would really love more MG/YA with interracial friendships & romances that don't involve white pplMore of my friends growing up were POC than not even though (or possibly because?) I lived in very white areas
Agreed 1000%. @MekishaTelfer and I were talking about this. #mswl forever

I’m dying for a #Latinx “Friends” & In The Heights crossover novel featuring a group of friends living in #TheBarrio. You know, just POC being POC in the 21st century. Even better if it’s #RomCom btwn 2 of the friends. #MSWL

Would love a great contemporary or historical romance featuring fat protagonists or any other marginalized person (disabled, LGBTQ, POC)! #MSWL

Twisty, absurdly funny, fast-paced psychological thrillers, with #ownvoices teen POC, attacking ideas of identity, paranoia, plunder. Think 'Ripley' meets 'Get Out.' #MSWL #YA

honestly, i want to read books about unabashedly non-alpha males that rise to the occasion in high stakes situations and it being perfectly feasible, kind of like legally blonde but for soft dads with secret pockets for a machete in their baby carriers. #mswlOMG YES!!! Would love this with featuring a POC protag too! #MSWL

#MSWL Today, I found myself driving along the original Trail of Tears. As a person of Cherokee descent, I would love to see a #YA (maybe #MG) centered on the Trail of Tears. #POC Any stories built from oral tradition? #NativeAmerican

I'd like to see a novel that tackles the issue of #autism and police interaction, particularly for a POC on the spectrum, as discussed in this article by @hollyrpeete: huffingtonpost.com/entry/autism-a… #autismmom #MSWL #YA #WF
