Why aren't there more rom-com-y books set at summer shares? #MSWL

I'm craving things in my submissions that are joyful. Hard is everywhere. I want some light. #MSWL

I’d love some more contemporary romance for the new year that celebrates odd duck leads. Characters for whom the lid and the pot are unusual sizes and shapes— that it really took serendipity to match them up. #MSWL

IT COULD BE WORSE is a rom-com title that should exist #mswl

Kalhalloween Rosenblatt 👻 @KalhanR
@NBCNews "They’ll call anyone younger than them ‘millennials,’ and doing the same thing to older people by calling them ‘boomers’ is kind of a push back to that,” one teen told me of why he uses the phrase "OK boomer." nbcnews.com/tech/social-me…Melissa Edwards @MelissaLaurenE · 15 Oct 2019
I’d love a rom-com about conversion or something similar a la Charlotte York Goldenblatt #mswl

A PB about envy or jealousy or wanting what someone else has #MSWL

I'd love more chapter book and MG nonfiction that is informative but mostly FUN #MSWL

I’d love to see some children’s books that play with form and function, especially for the wee ones. Something outside the box. #mswl

There’s been discussion on this delightful medium about MG and periods, so write it and let it flow my way (the pun is there) #MSWL

The kind of light romantic women’s fiction that deserves the illustrated cover #mswl

I love them all but Orla on Derry Girls might be the purest character ever written#MSWL for a delightfully oblivious main character who gets to exist peacefully weird

Has there been a novel about a kid whose parents accidentally turned him into a meme? Like this kid? #MSWL

Here I stand, speaking my truest desire into the universe:
BODY POSITIVE YA ROM COM #MSWL
(don't forget the com, the com is important)

I will take your roller derby novel.
