Me: *going to be very chill about agents flying into my city*Also me: hey @ericsmithrocks you’re three blocks from where Hemingway was born and lemme tell you real quick about Saint Paul during prohibition and why the gangsters hung out here and also who lives where and why
Listen, I have a deep and abiding #mswl about John O’Connor and Nina Clifford

Why don't I ever see an "I'm in love with my BFF's ex but am not allowed to date him" book end with the BFFs dating? #MSWL

If your YA could be described as "fluff" by "serious" non-YA readers, query me! #MSWL

If your romance has an enemies-to-lovers and/or a forced-proximity trope I'm in. #MSWL

If a reader thinks that your book is SF and a completely different reader is CONVINCED that it's LitFic, I want to see it #MSWL
Laura Zats @LZats · 12 Sep 2018
If you writing haunting, lyrical YA or adult SFF, I also want to see it. #MSWL
