like so many ppl, i also fell victim to tiktok over the last couple of years and while there is a lot to be said for how it's impacting us/our interactions with one another (if you have *that* nf ms...👀) sometimes you come across one that just nails a vibe so perfectly . . . !so: welcome to this segment i'm going to call: my #mswl in tiktoks!! 🤪
Literary Agent
ok last non-fiction #mswl for now: increasingly i am made aware of how deeply capitalism influences and infiltrates our lives, in big and small ways. i would love to keep exploring that and hearing about other ways we could imagine our lives, please!
Literary Agent
non-fiction #mswl continued:
-topics within mental health and how the societies we live in affect it 👀
-biographies of women from history, whether ones who were ignored/forgotten or maybe a revised look at a known figure!!! esp written by fellow women!
Literary Agent
ok, some non-fiction #mswl!
truth is, i'm a nerd on a futile quest to learn everything, ever, but some topics/areas i often gravitate towards:
-pop culture & what it says about us/the times we're living in
-deep dives into cultural history of <topic/thing>

i was surprised by how much i enjoyed bridgerton s2 because i'm not really into historical fiction so: if it got similar vibes to kathony, both as a couple but also individually, and it's not necessarily historical*?? #mswl
*i might be flexible w like the 20th century lol
Literary Agent
i don't know what's going on here but i'm drawn to novels ft a house/setting that maybe possibly wants to kill you/its inhabitants or maybe one that just keeps messing with them. if this is exploring some forgotten history/wrongs/etc?? *chef's kiss* #mswl
Literary Agent
halsey's verse in DIE FOR ME. no lie, *i* would die for a novel with those vibes #mswl

happy weekend, y'all! thanks for the warm reception to this 💕now that i've shared all the ~official info and links, join me as i share my #mswl in its purest format: a chaotic twitter thread (while we can still tweet lol), gifs, and tiktoks!!!!! pic.twitter.com/k1vLtlXECe
i've been thinking about it for 2 months so it's only fitting to start here: the scene in wakanda forever where namor says to [redacted] 'let's burn the world together'? i want the version where [redacted] says 'bet' and all the messy *nuanced* consequences that follow!! #mswl
Literary Agent
i'm also over on #mswl and i've had a great time putting together my profile! please take a look here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/hana…
Literary Agent
the tl:dr of the above bio? i want fun, exciting commercial & genre fiction and accessible well-researched non-fiction, specifically from marginalized creators!
(you should still read the bio though, please 😅)
Literary Agent
so in addition to my international/foreign rights gig (which i *adore* because forever a third culture kid ™) i'm looking to build a small list of clients as an agent!
