I love girls with hard outer shells and soft, gooey centers!
Still looking for MG--found families, generational stories, fantasy, friend gang adventures like STRANGER THINGS or THE GOONIES, siblings, and besties growing apart.

I want stories about the entourage. What hijenks ensue? What is their non-royal life like? How do they date? #MSWL

Can we start a YA trope called "ridiculously powerful girls and the sweet yet deadly boys who gladly walk through fire to kneel at their feet" because that's what we need in 2018 thank you for coming to my TEDTalk.Yup! #mswl

All this chatter about a vampire (and werewolf) comeback. I have thoughts...I like my supernatural, human-but-not characters. But I’d love some new takes—not the resurrecting of classics that worked the last time around. Let’s see new perspectives get a bite at that apple.
Yeah this whole thread is #mswl. I'm trying to think about arranged marriages/dates in a vampire family. The church boys my mom tried to throw at me...vampire mama would be uber-meddlesome.

Can you imagine an unfortunate young (born after 1945) Chinese vampire bringing home a Japanese boyfriend when the vast majority of her family lived through World War II? Now, that's a teen vampire romance I'd want to read!I would like this as well!!!!!! #mswl

Just watched one of those "fake dating and now we're in love" tropes on the hallmark channel. Can I get a QPOC one in my inbox?!!! #MSWL

"Colorism perpetuates the same Eurocentric philosophies of racism that have helped oppress darker skin people around the world for centuries." tnvge.co/Qc8ZtJLI'd love to see a project about colorism, its history, and how it's still pervasive today. #MSWL

For the love of my dark, evil, magical heart, please send me witch books--bitchy witches, selfish witches, selfless witches, kind witches, amoral witches, angry witches. ALL THE WITCHES!!! #MSWL

What it's like to remember those poor days, even though your life has changed. Or what it's like as a teen to be friends or date people who don't quite understand your struggle. To my roses that grew from concrete, I see you and want you complex, joyful, messy, heartfelt,hopeful, triumphant, lovely stories. Send them to me! #MSWL.
