Seeing lots of space operas this morning. So fun.

P.S. I'd love to find your version of HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY meets [fill in the blank]. Throw in a dash of romance, and I'm hooked! #MSWL

(The answer is "42," but what is the question?)

#JMSQueryBoxTrends

Happy #MSWL Day!

I would love to a funny and uplifting friendship break-up / make-up story, or a fraught and complicated friend break-up story (perhaps a thriller?). #MG, #YA, #Adult Surprise me! #MSWL

For my wish list + more about me, see:

WHOA! Highly recommend listening to the @nytimes Daily Podcast: Keeping Harvey Weinstein’s Secrets, Part 1: Lisa Bloom

...I spy the premise for a season of Damages with Glenn Close or a gripping thriller! #MSWL

I spy a novel here. #MSWL

#MSWL Eco horror.

I’m not sure what it is, but I’d love to see it.

I spy a story here. #MSWL

If you're thinking about setting your dystopian in San Francisco, think again.

But maybe a great locale for a crime or psychological suspense novel with an antihero protagonist? #MSWL

Privacy fears allayed... for now.

#MSWL Please send me stories about learning how to lose (or handle rejection) with grace.

#MG especially, but also #PB and #YA.

#MSWL Please send me a good, twisty thriller with a smart female protagonist full of agency.

Family secrets? Check!
Fraught friendships? Check!
Bad romance? Check!

Murder at a boarding school? Yes, please!

I would love to find Heathers in my inbox. I have a thing for bad boyfriends. #MSWL

(In fact, I had a dream last night I was back together with the baddest of my bad boyfriends, and even though I knew better, I still couldn't resist him.)

#MSWL

Thriller writers: I'd love to see a big pharma version of "The Big Short." (adult or even YA, with a teen protagonist affected by the opiate crisis). Please send my way. #MSWL nyti.ms/2HniDgu

I love the idea that magic could be lurking in our world, if only we knew where to look. Have such a story (PB, MG, YA, adult speculative/horror)? Please send it my way! #MSWL

I feel like this could be the inciting incident for a novel. #mswl

If you haven’t read the Shirley Jackson novel, #TheHauntingOfHillHouse, start with that one—my favorite!

And then we’ll talk! #amreading

P.S. if you’re writing a haunted house novel, I want it. #MSWL

Surprise me. I just want to see characters who take responsibility at the end of the story, rather than lie, deny, or blame others. #mswl

Wanted: stories about bullies who become aware of + take responsibility for their actions, and emerge at the end of the story wiser and more empathetic.

#MSWL

#mswl

I would love to find such a project, too. See below—> #MSWL

#MSWL Still looking for a creepy MG ghost story. One of my favorite books as a kid was THE HOUSE WITH A CLOCK IN ITS WALLS*, by John Bellairs. Would love to find a modern day haunted house MG.

(*The illustration of the headlights still keeps me up at night. Eep!)
