To go with the new Bluesky life, I thought i'd reshare the updated #MSWL on the Bell Lomax Moreton website [link in bio]. Please have a browse and send me some great books.

A more horror-tinged KALA by Colin Walsh would be an incredible place to start. Or The Craft X PENANCE by Eliza Clark. God, those were two excellent books.

Forget Dark Academia, you know what we need? Dark Townies. Fucked-up kids doing weird rituals whilst working awful retail jobs, or lurking behind the bars in ancient pubs...

#MSWL , I grew up in a nothing rural-adjacent market town and god lord, we searched and hoped to uncover dark conspiracies and spookiness most foul. We didn't find any, so send me some if your book is in that world.

Also, cosy romantasy is always a vibe, but let's see some cosy sci-fi: low stakes, high heart, possibly in space! 🚀

I'd also love to see #ownvoices Latin-America-inspired mythological fantasy. It could be contemporary, historical, or a fresh retelling.

Anything featuring my favourite animal gets bonus attention.

Hello, a quick #thread blast on about my current #mswl ,

I'm looking out for some commercial genre-bending speculative fic, aka crime, romance, or thriller with a unique uncanny edge.

Hey #WritingCommunity, I'm back online and my big romantic heart is searching for some new #Romantasy in my inbox. I like mine, fun, contemporary, maybe a little slice-of-life, but open to all sorts.
