#MSWL Right off the bat: Diversity. Diversity. Diversity.

Excited to jump on the #MSWL feed today. I'll tweet out some specifics, but what I'm looking for can be found here: ericadbauman.wordpress.com/mswl/

#MSWL eerie + haunting #YA and #A horror, and funny #MG horror (I REALLY like scary stories).

#MSWL Would love #YA #SFF or #CON retellings of classic lit, that put a new angle on old favorites.

#MSWL If you can describe your #MG as "creepy," "eerie," or "mysterious," I want to see it.

#MSWL Still have my fingers crossed for a #MG or #YA about archaeology.

#MSWL I would LOVE to see #YA retellings of classic ballets and operas (Coppelia is a favorite of mine): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copp%C3%A…

Gothic #MG or #YA. I'm obsessed with all things creepy right now. #mswl

Extra awesome if your story is on my #MSWL and also: diverse, LGBTQ, gender swapped, or set in a non-European culture. #MG #YA #A

STEM, especially women in STEM fields. #MSWL #MG #YA #A

#YA horror please! I want to be too scared to go to sleep. No werewolves, vampires, or zombies though. #mswl #H

Give me #MG starring misfits. Show me MCs who do their own thing and don't apologize for who they are. #mswl

Speaking of food...I am (extremely) obsessed. So #MG or #YA about cooking, or where the MC is a chef, would make me a very happy girl. #mswl

Vivid, dreamy #MR (especially if it involves food!) #MSWL #MG #YA #A

Would love some voice-driven, witty #A (like The Rosie Project or Where'd You Go, Bernadette). #MSWL #LF

#YA heists please! Especially if there's a big twist ending... #MSWL

#MG funny fairy tales! #MSWL #F

I LOVE unconventional storytelling. Found footage, handbooks/guidebooks/textbooks, emails, tweets, etc. #MSWL #MG #YA #A

Would also love some #A historical mysteries, especially if it has a kickass detective like Phryne Fisher. #MSWL #HF #M

In #MG, I want mysteries about things that go bump in the night...The creepier, the better! #mswl #M
