So I am looking at what is left in my queries and everything is so serious in tone. I need to laugh, and hear some dry humor. #MSWL
Literary Agent
SO #MSWL I want something light toned, and humorous, though it doesn't have to have a light toned plot.

If you have THE VILLAGE meets Neil Gaiman's STARDUST but for mermaids, hit me. (the mermaids should be the monster) #MSWL #YA Thanks @Almost_Anna for that comp!
Literary Agent
So @AllisonLBitz just phrased it perfectly. I want mermaid science.
I want a mermaid book that approaches them as real ocean creatures. #MSWL
Also please note, I have thought way to much about mermaids. I have a theory about procreation and communication skills.

#mswl for my nonfiction writing friends:*I'm currently devouring Patrick Radden Keefe's SAY NOTHING & would love to find a book in this vein. History or history / true crime that reads like a thriller.
*PopScience that takes a deep dive into a subject. Think SPYING ON WHALES.
The YA version for me please #MSWL

Like, she KNEW men can lie and say trust me, and then be angry at you when you do what you need to do to make sure the man you're with is not a monster.And she's always cast as the jealous sister, and Psyche as faithless.
And written that way by men.
THIS! I loved Psyche and Cupid as a kid. But yes. Like her sisters are always like "Girl, you haven't seen your husband in the light, HOW do you know??"
And yet, it is framed like they are the bad guys.
Give me a #MSWL that addresses this in a modern way.
