@kurestinarmada yes!!! i also want to see a princess who takes her political duties seriously & recognises that her personal desire to marry for love might be a smidge less important than the thousands of lives resting on a political marriage #mswl

QT as a not so subtle slide across the table to all you authors out there 👀👀👀👀 #MSWL

I would love to do a book with someone who lives out somewhere gorgeous and moody, raising their own sheep (or other used-for-yarn creature?) and carding, dyeing, spinning, and knitting that wool. Part memoir, part nature, part craft book, with tons of visuals. #MSWL

My morning read today was MEM by @BCMorrow and all I can say is WOW!! 😍 What a beautiful, thoughtful gem of a novel. ✨

Between this & TIN MAN (which I loved so, so much) I’m really feeling the powerful, lovely, literary/specfic novels in small packages. So send your short (but still novel length) & gorgeous work my way? 🙏🙏 #MSWL

(Read those two for reference if you need more clarification 🤗)

Speaking of #MSWL (not here, but elsewhere), I’m going to be specific and say I want all the Latinx and/or Filipino inspired spec fic 🙌🙌 Those are my cultures by birth & adoption, and I want to see them in SFF! (Or a sweet contemporary MG, I’m greedy ☺️)

#MSWL YA historical fiction (both w/fantastic elements and w/o) with a fresh, fun modern voice. Think MY LADY JANE and GENTLEMEN'S GUIDE TO VICE AND VIRTUE!

Haggard Hawks @HaggardHawks

A TWO-FOR-HIS-HEELS is a roguish, knavish gentleman.

Wait can I sign and/or buy a book w/this title though? Throw in some magic on top (I’m always hungry for more domestic style magic!) #MSWL

Huge thanks @MiriamAnneW for getting me to watch ACCA-13!! Tea, cake, friendships, and loads of court intrigue = my everything 😍😍

Replying to @kurestinarmada

Now everyone else has to watch it so I can 1. discuss the ending with everyone and 2. Have it as a #MSWL !!

I feel entirely seen by this Tinyletter, so ofc this is a #MSWL (& if someone could include a requisite amount of queerness all the better)

My number one #MSWL right now: big, ambitious books that pack a punch. Tied w/fun books that keep you up late&make you laugh on the train!

Romance authors, I want to see you in my inbox! Especially the out there, kinda weird stuff--not the traditional, small town vibe #mswl
