Send me your non-fiction. Send me your sports (and history, of course)! #MSWL

Absolutely horrifying in all the good ways. I realize that there is already a novel out there based on this island, but I'd love to see something similar. #MSWL tinyurl.com/ywddwfza

From the Smithsonian Libraries and Archives
A poison book ☠️ #MSWL

"Lehrbuch der Mineralogie" (1799) was coated with Scheele’s Green on the fore edges. This dye produced in the 1700s and 1800s used poisonous arsenic mixed with copper to create a brilliant green.

#MSWL I'm a sucker for a book about a house. There's something here with this witch window thing (also known as coffin windows). Hello!

Finally catching up on #GBBO and we need to discuss Sandro. The full time nanny, boxer and BAKER?!! What romance author handed the producers a backstory of a perfect cinnamon roll hero because 🔥🔥🔥🔥 pic.twitter.com/s4YmOP8uwM

First, Oh My!
Second, #MSWL
Third, now I must find time to watch this show. ❤️

To the person at the London Library who has taken out all of the books related to the *very, very* niche topic I am currently researching — who are you? Reveal yourself: let's fall in love or murder each other

Alice is writing stuff!!! @thatfatbookgal

Right y’all lemme know about your 2023 book releases with plus-size/fat MCs. Basically, I’m compiling a list of a bunch of books coming out in 2023 w/ plus size/fat rep, and I need your help to flesh it out. All genres & age ranges welcome!

Boosting this to see where it goes. I’m very interested in seeing plus-size/fat MCs in my inbox when I reopen to queries at the end of the month. #MSWL

This looks INCREDIBLE! #MSWL
Sajni Patel’s A DROP OF VENOM, pitched as a feminist reimagining of Medusa’s origins, inspired by Indian lore, which follows a young Serpent Queen’s rise to power and the Slayer sent to kill her, questioning what it truly means to be a "monster."

Announcing an addition to my #MSWL. We have been seeing some reimagining of legendary folklore or Greek mythology. More of that please. But I'd also love to see a retelling of Hawaiian mythology and/or legends.

Jenny L. Howe (Pre-order The Make-Up Test 🤓📚❤) @jennylhowe

Multiple people have told me over the last few months that THE MAKE-UP TEST inspired them to stop being afraid to write plus-size MCs and sometimes I just think about that and start crying.

This, 💯. Plus-size MCs please! #MSWL

I can't resist revenge stories. And an underlying feminist theme. Would love to see the next #DIETLAND. #MSWL

· 12 Sep 2018

Dark suspense is my literary happy place. I'd love to find an Adult Thriller series in the vein of the @JefferyDeaver Lincoln Rhyme series or the Thomas Harris Hannibal series. # TickTock #MSWL

· 12 Sep 2018

Just realized it's #MSWL today! I'd LOVE to see some compelling Adult Narrative NF about a little-known part of history, a story that may be part of a bigger, more well-known story--but not-yet explored.

A project on Raymond Geist--a little-known US hero who issued visas for 50,000 Jews, getting them out of Nazi Germany before WWII. #MSWL

· 7 Mar 2017

On the non-fiction side I'm hoping for some gritty true-crime and historical narrative non-fiction in the vein of THE BOYS IN THE BOAT #MSWL

· 7 Mar 2017

I’d love to find some smart, dark, literary horror. I’m looking for Thomas Harris-like stuff, not I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER. #mswl
