...indigenous stories by indigenous creators, ILLUSTRATORS (I love whimsy!), rom com! I should have been tagging this all with #mswl. I'll keep listing things as I think of them. 5/

...Stories of Black joy (any age), funny, escapist YA, forced proximity survival stories (stranded on an island? plane crash in the mountains? snowed in? Any age. I loved Baby Island AND Six Days, Seven Nights) 4/

...a historical mystery series with a slow burn romance (missed out on one I LOVED years ago and I have been searching for another one FOREVER), multigenerational women's fiction with some cool time periods and settings, middle grade with non-traditional family dynamics 3/

Specifically, I'd love...plus-sized heroines, manuscripts with disabled rep, lgbtq+ stories, a mystery/suspense series with a female protagonist that is an expert in a thinky field (like the Temperance Brennan series by Kathy Reichs), deep MG with a lot of emotional gravitas 2/

tired: flirty enemies to loverswired: enemies with benefits
inspired: their respective alter egos are bitter enemies but their civilians selves are dating and neither of them know it
I just spent like 10 minutes thinking of all the great ways enemies with benefits could play out & I'm all in. Like: they put down their weapons to bone & then go back to trying to kill each other the next morning. #mswl

Dang, this story is so wild! abcnews.go.com/US/woman-abandā¦I am still thinking about this story. Is it weird that I want someone to write me a book that involves serial psychotic pregnancy denial? #mswl
