It occurred to me that the current TBR pile on my nightstand serves as a perfect visual #MSWL!

Can anyone recommend a good cozy mystery in the vein of The Great British Baking Show? I want all the feelings / aesthetics of that show in a cozy. If not, well, #mswl.

Ok, so we're doing this vampire thing, huh? Here's what I want. Give me vampires the way INTO THE DROWNING DEEP gave us mermaids, because I'm having a super hard time putting that book down. #mswl

I would love to see some really grounded sci-fi in my query inbox, the kind where you come to care deeply about the characters and their relationships. Basically, I want something that reminds me of watching Battlestar Galactica. #mswl

A quick reminder that I am always open to projects like these! If you have a book about food, fiction or nonfiction, I want to see it. #mswl

Does anyone know of any books with a chaiwalla as the main character? It seems to me the job would allow for unprecedented access to the ins and outs of other people's lives, their conversations, their secrets. #MSWL if not.

If you have a super cool new twist on a retelling like Alexa Donne's BRIGHTLY BURNING (except for adults), I wanna see it! #MSWL

listening to @raceandfood talk about the whiteness of travel writing, and how when POC get to write about travel, it's only within the context of immigration/refugees. Decolonize travel writing ugh yes!I would love a book-length project on this topic. *hint hint* #mswl

Rachel E. Gross @rachelegross
Her editors had no interest in sending her to the front lines. So WWII journalist Virginia Irwin joined the Red Cross and went anyways: smithsonianmag.com/history/virgin… via @SmithsonianMagSomeone PLEASE write about Virginia Irwin and then query me. It's a story that would work in both fiction and nonfiction. #MSWL

On May 1 each year, in a tradition dating back to the 16th century, the residents of Hastings, England throw a parade where a man adorned in a cloak of leaves and a flower crown leads a group of dancers, monsters, spirits, and samba bands around town trib.al/8ZtsJxI#MSWL for sure
