As a woman I don’t have that privilege. I can’t walk with earbuds. I need to be aware that someone is (seemingly) stalking me. I’m not necessarily safe. I would have moved when the (seeming) stalker sat. Just enough to keep an eye on them.Then I thought, this is the book I want. A reverse You. A woman obsessively stalking a man who has the privilege of not noticing. A privilege that makes her job very easy. #MSWL

.@BookEndsJessica and I have been super interested in this "sharenting" craze. We think it would make for so many good books. #MSWL fastcompany.com/90315706/kids-…Definitely interested in a book on this theme: women's fiction, psych suspense, suspense, thriller (YA would be better for @jamerrson) #MSWL

Some of my favorite examples for books that have inspired me include You are a Badass, Start with Why, The One Thing, Go for No (although slightly odd)...can I get more like this? #MSWLI desperately want more mindful books in all genres--business, career, job hunting, parenting, etc. Experts need apply. #MSWL Thanks!!!

I had a really fun lunch yesterday with a nonfiction business editor and now I'm totally fired up to find more business/career/personal empowerment books especially by AOC & women, but for all readers. #MSWLSome of my favorite examples for books that have inspired me include You are a Badass, Start with Why, The One Thing, Go for No (although slightly odd)...can I get more like this? #MSWL

If you have an appointment but don't feel your book is right for me don't despair. We can use the time to chat about the industry, querying, and the entire process of being published. #ampitchingI don't usually bite, I often drink too much coffee, and I promise to do my best to put you at ease. Looking forward to meeting with you & I do believe I still have open appointments! #MSWL
