ahem #mswl

ok so I’ve come to the realization that this is the plot of the 2005 masterpiece Just Friends so I guess... #mswl: Just Friends, without the fatphobia and ideally, queer

my only evermore take atm is that I would very much like someone to write me a 'tis the damn season novel about a celebrity returning to her small hometown during the liminal week between xmas and new years and making out with her townie ex. Big Sweet Home Alabama energy. #mswl

ok but I was juuuust talking to someone about how much I want this. #mswl

ahem, #mswl

please scare the shit out of me! #mswl

And I've said it a million times but: if you're writing a book that aspires to have the wit, charm, world building, humor, and heart of the @fuggirls' books - DEAR LORD SEND THEM TO ME PLEASE #MSWL

A MODERN QUEER VERSION OF TEN THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU PLEASE GOD MY CROPS ARE DYING #mswl

AHEM. #MSWL

rather than scream more, this is a good opportunity to say that I'd love to work on a book of deeply researched cultural criticism about taste, the value of art, and how both are historically and intrinsically wrapped up in the erasure of disenfranchised voices. #MSWL

WHERE IS MY ROM COM #mswl vox.com/the-goods/2019…

#MSWL: I've spent most of the last 15 yrs of my life in basements, warehouses, old storefronts across the US listening to live music and meeting the best people. I'd love to see that captured authentically in fiction (but pls god don't write it if you didn't live it.)

as a gal with many straight, strictly platonic, male best friends, I would love to see more of that in both YA and Adult #MSWL

refreshing a relevant thread on this beautiful #MSWL day:

hello yes please I am desperate for intersectional music books. #MSWL

ready to fist fight over this one. (love u, @hillaryjacobson) #mswl

YA only for me, but please yes this. If I had read more representations of chronic pain when I was younger I probably wouldn't have believed my pediatrician when he said "you're too young to have back problems". #MSWL

#mswl: give me your GRACE AND THE FEVERs, and RED WHITE AND ROYAL BLUEs, and PUBLIC RELATIONS-es, and EMERGENCY CONTACTs, and THE ROYAL WEs and and and and you get it.

#mswl: give me your characters who don't usually get their love stories told, give me your most charming banter, give me your ideal OTP that you never got to see on screen, give me characters that look like you and your and me and my friends.

#mswl: give me your early/mid/late twenties coming of age, give me your 'how do I pay bills' and 'what do I do now', give me your friend families, give me your friendship is it's own type of glorious romance, give me your 'how can we grow up together'.
