I can already tell this movie is going to be my new #MG #MSWL. (Also, ignore the gif of Bo--watch the trailer. It's about an 8th grade girl and it looks great)

BIG #MSWL for Crossover/Adult SFF

I'm looking for a book that engages with the abuses perpetrated against indigenous people, in particular women, and the colonizer's legacy of violence and oppression.

Please spread the word. I need this book. The world needs this book.

I'm still looking for this book. It doesn't have to be set in America, or even our world. What I'm really after is a book that engages with the abuses perpetrated against indigenous people, in particular women, and the colonizer's legacy of violence and oppression. #mswl

Hi can someone send this to me? Like....now? #mswl

Hi #PitMad! I'll be checking in later today, but if I favorite your pitch, please send me your query and 1st chapter, along w/ the original twitter pitch!

If I *don't* catch yours, I'd still love to hear from you. Full #MSWL is here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/laur…

I would love to see more SFF MG and contemporary YA in my inbox. #MSWL

#MSWL forever 👩 🔬

I'd like a non-white, dark fairy tale for MG or YA. #mswl

I've just updated my wishlist on @ManuscriptWList. Check it out? manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/laur… #mswl

I'd like a MG Fantasy that features lesser-known creatures of myth and legend (be that because they don't figure as prominently in mythology, or because they are from traditions ignored by the European-centric literary canon). #mswl

Putting this back out there: I want a book about/involving poison. PLEASE. #MSWL

Having read (and LOVED!) BLOOD WATER PAINT, I'm now craving a novel in verse... #mswl

Unagented writers--I would love to find a YA Contemp set in freshman year of college. #mswl

There are so many things about Black Panther that I loved, but one of my favorites was the depth of the worldbuilding, and how we saw what life was like without the influence of colonization. I would love to see a SFF project that grapples with similar questions. #MSWL

Saturday Evening Thoughts

I would really love to find an exciting, middle grade adventure/ fantasy set somewhere other than the US or Europe.

Great example: THE SERPENT'S SECRET by @Sayantani16

#MSWL

Where is my space camp MG?! 🚀 #MSWL

If Winona could play the MC in the movie version of your book, then I probably want to read it. #MSWL

Okay, I need a MG about a dog show. Let's do this. #MSWL

I would love to find a fun, queer, #ownvoices MG that makes me as happy and hopeful as STAR-CROSSED by Barbara Dee. #MSWL goodreads.com/book/show/2724…

I'd really love to find a high concept, literary middle grade novel, be it realistic or otherwise. Please, universe? #mswl
