#MSWL My main priority still remains to make space in the industry for stories about disability AND stories by disabled authors. If that's you, and your book is in one of my categories, please send! I'll give almost anything a try if it's through a disability lens or has a crip sensibility. :)

#MSWL More specifically, I'm really hoping to sign an adult SFF book with a disabled protagonist this year, and I'm dying for the next SICK KIDS IN LOVE. I want YA disability romance so, so, so bad!

For #MSWL #MSWL Day 2026, I'm really, really looking for disabled authors of color! If you have an adult SFF book or any genre of MG or YA novels, please send it my way!

I would really love to see more political disability in my inbox––disability history, disability politics, disability culture, disability art. There's very little overlap between the disability art scene and disability in fiction, and I would love to bridge this gap! #mswl

Want to put it on the record that I would love to see more intersectional disability stories in my inbox, especially by BIPOC authors! #mswl #DisabilityTooWhite
