I want a historical that feels historical: from the writing, to the voice. My favorite authors are J. Anderson Coats, Ruta Sepetys, Ann Rinaldi. Recent favorite books: Wolf Hollow. #MSWL

As I near the end of my requested material (only 4 manuscripts left), I want to talk about the type of book I am dying to see more of in my queries. I'll use comps where I can so you have an idea of the flavor I am searching for.

I want a lush fantasy that is character driven. I want writing that sweeps me away with its beauty but keeps me enthralled in the plot. #MSWL

I'm also a sucker for beautiful prose. Sentences that contain worlds. I want to marvel at the beauty of your words, but be too excited for what comes next to tarry long. #MSWL

@SoCalledYALife I love how delightfully weird Over the Garden Wall is! pic.twitter.com/8U181JI3ls

Replying to @Almost_Anna

It's only the best! I want a graphic novel like OVER THE GARDEN WALL. Or a middle grade. #MSWL forever!

I saw @shapeofwater last night, and as I sat in the theater, enraptured, I realized I wanted to read as many books as possible with that kind of incredible storytelling and perfectly executed magical realism. (YA and adult!) #MSWL

Me too. #MSWL

All this talk of Austen vs Bronte makes me want some retellings! FYI: I am a PERSUASION fan and I am partial to Anne Bronte, but I could any of the Brontes. #MSWL #YA

#MSWL I love the Salem witch trials. I'd be interested in seeing other famous witch trials in history. #YA

@SoCalledYALife Would a historical Fantasy/tragic romance suffice? Great escapism for a broken heart :)

Replying to @Mavonduri

It doesn't address this #MSWL at all but I'm happy to take a peek.

#MSWL I need more historical fiction. We have to show the children the past so they can protect the future.

#MSWL I want graphic novels for 2018. But I have a very specific taste. I loved PRINCELESS, RICKETY STITCH, THE LITTLE RED WOLF. So for kids and 4 color are a must.

There's nothing I love better than shows, books, anything about historical figures--especially royals 🙏🏿

#MSWL royals and historical fiction. I want both separate and together.
