"Books that are devastating to put down" is literally in my #MSWL. Souvankham doesn't know me, nor that she so often speaks the words that are in my heart. 💜

What I love and want to see is more Canadian writers journeying into speculative literature. Dystopia. Time travel. Ghosts. Alternate realities. Talking animals. Portal fantasies. Witches. Everything is a dream except it's not. Give it to me.

YUP. #MSWL

Just spent part of a check-in call gushing with an editor about how much we would love to collaborate on a project about the present/future of accessibility in a COVID-affected world by a disabled and/or chronically ill author. If this is you... #MSWL #CripLit

Hey publishing, can someone do RRP but for Goosebumps style MG horror? Different diverse author for every book? Yes? Please?

I want this VERY BADLY. #MSWL

I would be so interested if there was a Chinese journalist who wanted to do a deep-dive true crime and sociocultural analysis of this case. #MSWL

#WritingCommunity, I always hear from editors who want sprawling, epic, family sagas. I TOO want one of those, especially one that’s from a marginalized author subverting the genre a bit and giving me all the feels. If you have this, PLEASE query me! #AmQuerying #MSWL

I really want to see a Halloween comic of a ghost desperately trying to haunt a chronically ill person who is completely unfazed by sudden chills, growling noises, and finding things in a completely different place from where they thought they left them #neisvoid

What’s the one unsolved mystery you most want answers to in your lifetime?

I’m cheating bc it’s MY prompt.

1. What happened to Asha Degree?
2. What happened to the Beaumont Children?
3. Who the HELL was the Freeway Phantom?

I'm just saying, but all these unsolved stories are *exactly* the kind of deep-dive queries I want to see in my inbox. True crime, fiction based on these, whatever. It's my catnip. #MSWL
