@draper_claire whatI’m an agent who would love a manuscript that has a kid who’s trans because they’d be more powerful than god and transitions to assume full power. #mswl in the writing community stands for manuscript wishlist, which editors and agents use to signal books they’re interested in

"i was born a boy but i'm in fact a girl"- cliché, boring, implies genitals = gender
"before my birth God foresaw my power and, afraid, made me a boy"
- instantly asserts you're Stronger Than God,
- confirms transitionning gives you unnatural powers
- mythology vibes
- metal

Members of the Spice Girls generation are the only people in history to have both grown up with the internet and to retain childhood memories that predate it. nyti.ms/32yoia1And why I want a book set during the Spice Girl revolution #MSWL

It’s official! This is the manuscript that won the SCBWI Work in Progress Award in 2017. I’ve been bursting with the news for months, and now that it’s been announced I can share! Such a beautiful story of courage and sacrifice that will include a special note from Lisa Bartali! pic.twitter.com/QFdzeH5zaHWOW. This is the kind of picture book I dream of! I’m looking for bios of lesser-known, amazing humans who’ve flown under the radar until now. I want to hear their stories! & congrats, Megan! I can’t wait to read your book! #MSWL

I still really want a retelling of Persuasion. #MSWL
(This is my sneaky way of getting more people to read this under appreciated classic and getting on the Wentworth ship 😉)
