Jess Hernandez 1ST DAY OF UNICORN SCHOOL @jhernandezbooks
I came across a synopsis I wrote around the time of Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court appointment and it got me wondering how many of us it spurred to write stories about rage-filled women burning things down. Anyone else have a stabby feminist manuscript from that period?If your MS can be described as "stabby feminist" I absolutely want to see it 👀❤️ #MSWL

“No-fault divorce should be illegal.”Hey you know what a lot of women did in the past when they weren’t allowed to divorce terrible men?
They murdered them.
Be grateful you’re just whining on the Internet and not serving as hog chow.

Oh another thing I’d love to find is a story that includes Dia De Los Muertos in some way by an authentic voice #MSWL

I tend to lean a little more commercial or upmarket so if your voice is more literary you will want to check out @Jacqui_Lipton
Stefi and I both enjoy a sarcastic voice too

I’d love some lighter fantasy & sci-fi stories that feel grounded and accessible

I know there are more articles coming out about the children who grew up as content farms for their parents and having all sorts of feelings about it.But there's been little, at least to my knowledge, policy put in place around this. And this is only gonna get worse.
#MSWL
I think there is a discussion to have here about this and I have thoughts on ways to present it but I’m curious to see if anyone is already working on this in novel form 👀
