I love laughter, warmth, introverts, character-driven narratives, perseverance, being transported to different places and times, gorgeous and grounded world-building, heart, friendship, and family.
Here’s what I’m seeking this year! #mswl scribblesandwanderlust.com/2019/01/01/msw…

I may have just spent the last 20 minutes gushing about the good ol’ marching band days with @_smromero. Send me those hilarious and fun band stories so I can send them to her!! #mswl 🎷🥁🎺

#mswl Zorro retelling, but female. She can be known as Zorra, or she's known as Zorro and the world has no idea she's actually female. I don't care. I am in need of a Zorro story, but female 🔥⚔️🦊

Help me through this sinus infection by sending me #mswl I’m desperate to read:
Female code breakers/spies a la BBC’s Bletchley Circle, THE ALICE NETWORK, or VELVET UNDERCOVER. Remarkable women in history who served great purpose in war. Mostly adult, but will take YA!

#MSWL fantasy w/ a translator protag. There's so much power in language-- how they translate for a ruler effects a whole kingdom, eg. I want to see the nuances & consequences of deciding how & what to translate, word play between languages, times when translation falls shortYes please. #mswl

Very specific: A, YA, or MG about a painter (or apprentice to, or child of) during the 1666 London Fire. Straight HF or hist fantasy #mswlCurrently listening to THE WEIGHT OF INK, which is about a female Jewish scribe in 1660s London. Talk about specific!
Send send send! 1660s England is FULL of amazing stories just waiting to be told. #mswl

I would read the hell out of the epic fantasy about the seamstress with magical power over threads and fabrics and wool and how her gift captures the pickpocket's eye and she gets swept up into a plot to overthrow the corrupt king during the huge annual market fair twitter.com/aoiph/status/9…Laura Crockett @LECrockett · 7 May 2018
I'm seeking more contemporary and historical lately––with accessible voices, character-driven plot, heart, humor, family/friendship/sibling relationships at the center. #mswl scribblesandwanderlust.wordpress.com/2018/01/01/msw…
Laura Crockett @LECrockett · 2 Apr 2018

You know what I'd like to see more of in genre fiction?Pre-established romantic relationships.
Like.
The story isn't about "finding love" but about people who are already IN LOVE, who already worked through the shaky beginnings, who are comfortable & stable w/each other
An EXCELLENT thread! #mswl for adult fantasy and hist fic
Laura Crockett @LECrockett · 20 Mar 2018
I’d love to see a project on mental health in the After. The industry is full of spiraling narratives ending with “rescues” — but what about the stories of recovery, finding stability in therapy/meds, readjusting to life with hope? #mswl
Laura Crockett @LECrockett · 5 Mar 2018
I always have a case of wanderlust. Send YA/A, studying abroad or abroad for work, navigating a new place to call home, experiencing new cultures, etc #mswl #MSWLaesthetic
