If you are writing a Southwestern Gothic, please step to the front of the class. I'm desperate for something dark and unsettling and folkloric set in the stark desert. #mswl

Could someone send me a cozy fantasy with an A plot hijinks and a B plot romance? #mswl

I'm in the mood for some upmarket spec fic based on the Egyptian myths. I would also love to see an angsty, romantic, political, intense high fantasy series centered on Osiris and Isis. #mswl

Would love to read something dark and gothic and black and witchy that feels like Prudence Blackwood x Ambrose Spellman meets Only Lovers Left Alive #mswl

Really in the mood for something gothic as hell, full of rot and ruin, a slow-burn romance, twists and turns, and BIPOC protagonists. #MSWL

If someone out there is writing an adult fantasy inspired by the epic tale Isis and Osiris that is romantic, angst-ridden and full of tense politics...I'm your editor.

History-inspired epic fantasy with intricate, detailed worldbuilding. I'm talking Hannibal's march on Rome, the rise of Shaka Zulu, Sultana Shajar al-Durr of Egypt, etc.

Look to history and give me some new epics! #mswl

Hi Universe,

It's me. I know I ask for a lot of things, but could you be kind enough to send me a ms about black women who are witches that isn't steeped in black pain but is about a community coming together or a woman falling in love or something full of joy.

K, thnx #mswl

Seriously, all I want is space opera that gives me the same emotional highs and lows as Farscape. #mswl
