I'm looking for terrific books in business + finance, especially anything that can easily compel the general public into decision-making. See this book on the stock market + investing as one example: amzn.to/2vZiPxh. #MSWL (Back to reading queries 05/01!)

...accessible to him. Man's experience of anything outside of himself is always associated with the experience of himself, and he never experiences anything external without having at the same time the experience of himself" (Karol Wojtyla, THE ACTING PERSON). It's a total......statistical near-impossibility that someone would have this novel, but I want something that deals with the interior structure of the person & his/her reflection on the development of the self. My philosophical study demands intense novels (or some!). #MSWL

Idk who's been checking in the #MSWL tweets, but just putting it out there, for anyone who's researching and building agent lists: bit.ly/39h6wKf. I will be re-opening to queries on 05/01, and want adult and YA fiction, and non-fiction. Getting there!
Literary Agent
I have a miraculous 113 #queries left to read through--huge relief--and a stack of manuscripts, and if all goes well, I shall be ready to re-open to submissions as of 11/15. Please check my submissions page for updates as I go here: lightningbugspub.com/submissions/. #MSWL

On top of @say_shannonβs lovely PRIORY, just started @kuangrfβs debut, THE POPPY WAR, and so in love. Any super fun novels about tests + competitions, + passing them; trivia + puzzles; etc., ME WANTS. Iβll take the next, either, please, or anything @maxgladstone-esque. #MSWL

Iβm going to jump off this thread to say that if you have milSF that deals with various military branches and the rivalries between them, I am SO interested. #MSWL twitter.com/sharon_kuruvilβ¦I would want to see this, too! Anything espionage-y, on top of this, please send me. Hoping for 11/15 as a query re-open. #MSWL
Literary Agent
Sometimes, I want to email my favorite authors + say, "Can I steal you for my agenting self, I love you so much?" I think I may start, at some point, out of desperation. Please send me your goodies when I re-open. Thirsty for the best YA and adult fiction. Hoping for 11/15. #MSWL
Literary Agent
#Siwc19 banquet conversation w/ @bradfordlit includeS reflections on the state of the industry + the low-rate divorce rate among writers of romance. Iβll soon be re-opening to #queries, + still thirsting for my next @rainbowrowell-esque ATTACHMENTS or ELEANOR & PARK. Plan. #mswl

I'm reading emails, queries, and tweets in the midst of a Saturday spent judging varsity debate rounds. Oh, would I love a debate novel (#MSWL), YA or adult either. The varsity resolution debates the degree to which standardized tests ought to be used during college admissions.
Literary Agent
One of my #MSWL books is about a child or adult who is gifted: mcgt.net/checklist. <-- Questions for you, as parents and as teachers! Little gifted munchkins require a lot of support, in a particular way. Not quite the same, but...
Literary Agent
I had the joy of completing a new interview with @DarlingAxe, + I cover preferred genres (#MSWL -- fiction + non-fiction, for YAs + adults), submissions, the industry, + good books. Check out the full interview here: bit.ly/2kZ1ten.
Literary Agent
Ready to hit the sack. Thought through more exercises for really solid #fiction #writing, + hit this sweet spot bit.ly/2m1boQI. Would love any fiction [#MSWL] from anyone who's writing/thinking like this, especially any thrillers and crime fiction.

I'd love a good novel that explores the affective/emotional life as a key plot development device. I'd also love of a novel that treats of healthy religiosity--for YAs or adults both. So often, religion is negatively grasped and/or understood as damaging. #MSWL
Literary Agent
Check it out, check it out: "On Book Publishing as a Form of Value Investment" -- bit.ly/2ZBd6qU. That one time I took a break from #amreading for some #amwriting. Publishing is a biz that runs on maximizing the value of writers and thinkers. Keep queries coming. #MSWL
Literary Agent
It's late at night, but I'm re-opening to queries as of tonight--anything of YA and adult, fiction and non-fiction. Whatever you've got! #MSWL Sub. guidelines here: lightningbugspub.com/submissions/. HIT ME UP, + please just be patient, as I catch up on dozens of pieces.

Tonight, @JAWALSH_BOOKS + I had a brilliant, stimulating convo about brainstorming for breakout thrillers at the @thrillerwriters' #ThrillerFest19 cocktail. Throwing @axon_us out there--interesting tech to integrate into your fiction: axon.com . #thrillerfest #MSWL

Excited to see @DonMaass live for the first time, @thrillerwriters #thrillerfest, on ensuring that thrillers are actually thrilling; those books that prompt the experience of βthrillββthe sensation of being sharply and exhilaratingly excited; the tingle, the quiver... #MSWL

@WeronikaJanczuk @genevievejude Also love PEOPLE OF THE BOOK.NICE. Well, there we go--one place of contact. I AM OBSESSED WITH THE FIRST SCENE. And everything else, of course: but really cool, gifted women scientists + otherwise... Bring it. Any day. Another #MSWL for the day I open to #queries. Hang. Tight.
