Katie Zhao 💛 THE FALLEN HERO out 10/13 ✨ @ktzhaoauthor
One thing I'd love to see publishing do is buy more quiet stories by marginalized creators. Whenever I pitch a new project, I feel like I have to use ‼️BIG FLASHY COMPS‼️Marginalized authors deserve to tell quiet stories, too. Happy stories. Stories where we can just...exist.
Sometimes the quiet stories can be more powerful than the flashy ones. Contemporary, historical, upmarket, literary, or women's fiction by BIPOC, LGBTQ+ authors #MSWL

For all who want to get a better idea of my book tastes, I used to do roughly monthly threads about my favorite new releases, basically from Fall 2018 up until quarantine stressed me out too much. Please peruse, and also buy these books if you haven’t! Thread of links coming:In lieu of a Soundcloud or official #MSWL (yet), I'm gonna drop this thread of some recent PB/MG/YA favorites (also occasional adult, but I won't be acquiring that). My taste is eclectic for sure, but I think there are some consistent themes :) twitter.com/SophiaJay42/st…

we need a replacement genre for buddy cop movies where the plot is still focused around two himbos and their burgeoning romance without them being cops...this is the Forever Stamp of my #mswl. non-denom First Class relationship. eternally valid himbo dynamic.

I'd really like just the right, informative but lyrical, magically focused exactly to my needs that I can't quite define yet, picture book about solar eclipses that I can have for the next US-visible one in 2024. #MSWL

Hi, #amquerying authors! If you're writing suspense/a thriller with a really evocative setting - whether a gloomy manor, a remote edge of the earth, an island paradise, a luxe hotel, a city's underbelly - PLEASE send it my way! I'm desperate for an escapist page turner... #MSWL

Random but what if there was a story about a society in which you had to pay for EVERY single meme/gif you use? Sounds silly but could be dark & have magic (bc why not?). A whole war/revolution fought b/w free the meme-ers and ppl should be paid for use of their image-ers.I tweeted about this again months later (twitter.com/oyinatiomi/sta…) and I’m still very much intrigued by this concept! #mswl

#MSWL: Gothic. Give me YA, Adult, anything that speaks to the atmosphere of du Maurier, Jackson, Hill, Purcell, or Waters. Looking for the perfect cross between feminine and terrifying.

I'm closed to submissions, UNLESS you have a grounded YA novel inspired by BTS about relationships within a longstanding group, about language, and about the business and artistry behind pop music. Especially if it's LGBTQIA+. Please send! Link: QueryManager.com/LaraPerkins/BT… #mswl
