I'm interested in a novel that explores the complexities of surrogacy—how the possibility arises, how the decision is made, how it affects relationships, why someone would choose to carry the pregnancy, etc. #MSWL

Based on the conversation about the Babylonian recipe tablets and how a woman figured they were recipes and the men didn't believe her, tell me more stories about women researchers/scholars whose perspective as women changed the way we look at some ancient thing.This thread=#MSWL

If I'm being completely honest the romance novel I most want to read right now is one about editors @bonappetit falling in love in the test kitchenYep. I have...thought about this while watching, for sure. Anyone falling in love behind the scenes charms me! #MSWL

I am very aware that some teens are having sex, but please give me teens who are just trying to touch one (1) breast. #MSWL

A Lizzie Magie picture book would be cool! I had no idea who she was until about thirty seconds ago. #MSWLRemember a couple days ago when we were all tweeting about the woman who invented Monopoly? I tweeted about that a year ago! Send it to me! #MSWL

Please....if a POC #ownvoices author even writes a Mission Impossible-esqe heist novel involving people breaking into the British Museum to recover their stolen treasure, I will help you write a query letter and blurb your book and push it into people's hands.Still yes!!! (Since we're in the vein of forgery and heists...) #MSWL

The pitch: a modern day ghost-hunter, but instead of locating spirits, they're a detective who tracks down exes who have cut off communication.This is a genuine--and impossible IRL--dream job, so I'd at least like to rep a book about it. #MSWL

#MSWL These are the kinds of details that build a convincing, contemporary YA world. Teens are intertwined with digital communication, and they're secretive, which means they're going to figure this shit out on their own. So much to mine! Write it true. twitter.com/rachsyme/statu…When you're writing YA, consider how teens ACTUALLY communicate and use technology! Please! #MSWL

#MSWL Anything about a procedure-based art form/career. The scene in Toy Story 2 where Woody is getting restored is like porn to me.

#MSWL You know how ghosts are often described in Victorian-era clothes? I'd love a creepy book that links all the Victorian ghosts back to death-centric rituals/obsessions of that era--the hair rings, eating ashes, etc.And, by extension, the death-centric rituals we perform throughout time and culture in order to hold onto a person's memory/essence. #MSWL

And he has, like, literally 25 hot nieces so there were a LOT of dinners in which a niece got a free meal with a nice young man and the opportunity to woo him away from contemplating a life of celibacy. They were not offended that he chose the latter, God’s calling is strong.#MSWL !!!!

Last night I spoke with a friend who recently judged a Mrs. pageant. I'd like a (funny, thoughtful, maybe even scary--surprise me) novel about a pageant like that, please. #MSWL
