Studies into healing revealed that full moon amplified the electrical charge in living cells. A sensitive voltmeter,attached to a tree picked up a faint electrical force. However, at the time of the full moon, this force soared upward on the scale. equinoxastrology.com/LunarLore.htm pic.twitter.com/70e4zE9bWr

Now what if that charge was magic or a different kind of energy? Young adult or adult #SFF with BIPOC, LGBTQ+ characters #MSWL

On this day in 1921, Bessie Coleman became the first African American woman to earn a pilot's license. As a Black woman, she was denied entry to flying schools in the United States, so she moved to France to earn her license from the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale. pic.twitter.com/ZRAEwBZzHX

Teen Librarian Toolbox Dyslexia Awareness Month @TLT16

We need more standalone YA that is short and engaging. Some teens love the long, speculative fiction trilogies that seem to dominate the market, & I’m here for that. But many teens are over programmed and/or find reading challenging. If we want teens to read, we need more 4 them.

Yes, please. #mswl

The djinn/jinn are the most famous beings of the Middle East and Islam, but Middle Eastern folklore is full of fantastic creatures. Some of them are terrifying and others benevolent.

Melissa Ann Singer @maseditor

I would really love to see the fantasy novel equivalent of those fairy tales where someone has to complete a series of "impossible" tasks to achieve their goal and must think through them rather than fight.

Same here! Adult or YA. #MSWL
