I seriously cannot do dark villainous men* anymore. Himbos only, please 😭 #mswl The Darkling ain’t doing jackshit for me rn 🫠

*Dark villainous anyone else, send my wayyy.

If your characters would shake their ass on a table, query me!!! #mswl (yes, thass me 😇)

Please this is also my #mswl Lauren just said it first :)

And I’m saying kids and fully meaning teens - 30s, kids is just my lexicon for folks. I don’t want marriage or children, love isn’t forever, and there’s more to life than Accomplishing AND I WANT TO CHARACTERS WHO ALSO LIVE LIKE THAT!! #mswl

Lots of typos hahah But look, I am not a Nice Girl and I’m wild and I’m black and viet and queer and never had to be shy about it and that’s what the hell I want to see in contemporary stories. I just want queer kids being messy without apology or hesitation #mswl

i just want stories with rebellious bitchy girls with big hearts and fun friend groups getting into fun shenanigans like spending all night running the St. Marks or getting revenge on an ex through elaborate pranks that increase so drastically it grows out of their control #mswl

Now a HBCU romance is a college story I’d beat the pavement for #mswl

I LOVE horror, but please let’s get us out of the suburban house and into a new fucking location. Please, I’m begging. #mswl

Writers, I am begging, please give me an Adult horror novel reminiscent of #Archive81. The way the show understands that some of the greatest horror comes from our need to have answers from/about the people we love - and the way we’d burn our own flesh for resolution. #mswl

I want my own YA or Adult Yellowjackets novel centering queer woman, WHAT THE FUCK, PEOPLE!! Help a girl out 😭 Girls and women are the most frightening creatures in the world and should be actively spearheading their own demises as well as those they love. I WANT TO REP IT #mswl

I loved what THESE VIOLENT DELIGHTS did with using an un-tapped historical period and setting, and adding speculative/magical elements and would love to see more of that! #mswl

I want to see more black teen girls as tenderly and fiercely as Ashley Woodfolk illustrates in both WHEN YOU WERE EVERYTHING and THE BEAUTY THAT REMAINS. #mswl

I am craving queer black teen books filled with reckless joyrides and shenanigans. Literally just kids being kids in their shitty hometowns or neighborhoods trying to figure out how to take a skatepark back, idk.

Think Leah Johnson’s EVERYTHING, baby. #mswl

Would probably die for an Adult Horror/Psychological Thriller in the vein of Showtime’s YELLOWJACKETS which is literally all I can fucking think about.

I need more Misty and Taissa in my life. #MSWL

First #MSWL tweet of 2022:

Would immediately devour: YA horror like RULES FOR VANISHING and Adult Horror like NOTHING BUT BLACKENED TEETH.

Would fangirl for: YA contemporary or thriller teen ensemble girl/queer squad reminiscent of JAWBREAKER

DYING for: fun, modern voices

You know what would be really cool? A love story with a non-linear timeline where the further you advance through the story, the more you start to question if it’s a romance or a thriller. #mswl

If I sign a horror this year, I swear to God I will stop being a dirty, thirsty lesbian on this goddamn site. PLEASE. #mswl

I just want to feel how I felt when I rewatched Stay Alive: the bliss of gaming and horror doling out Game Overs to friends one by one 🥺 #mswl

Ummm, actually is anyone writing this right now BECAUSE I WANT IT #mswl

Am I bugging or does Clerks set in Space sound flipping fantastic? Stoner aliens trying to save their smoke shop, idfk I want this Adult fantasy novel! #mswl
