For @nytcooking I wrote about Moody Harney, Brooklyn's Real Mother Shucker, who teaches and embodies NYC's Black oyster history.I learned so much writing this story and Moody gave me maybe my favorite kicker of all time 😂

Another #MSWL from @EmilyKaitlinnn!
"I'm looking for heists, competitions, and assassin novels in MG/YA/Crossover Adult. With the vibes of Uncharted, The Mummy, or The Inheritance Games. This could be magical realism or fabulism, fantasy, or even really interesting contemp"

I have strong feelings about people who blithely sort coming of age novels about young people into YA or adult based on their narrow view of what constitutes "literary" writing, but that's a long-winded thread for another day. TL;DR: adults can have "coming of age" stories, tooAnyway if you're writing a coming of age (coming of self!) story about young protagonists or older protagonists, for young readers or older readers, that challenges traditional ideas of what "coming of age" means, who gets to do it, how, and when...send it to me #MSWL #AmAgenting

“YA non-fiction: Memoir, essay collections, you name it. Queer There & Everywhere is probably my favorite YA non-fic title in recent memory, and a great example of what I’d like to see.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

“Select horror—I’m more interested in psychological elements, but I don’t mind a bit of gore. Anything disturbing or unnerving is up my alley. Novels + collections welcome!” @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

For #FridayKiss, let’s hear it for the rolled sleeves look… 🥵“He wore no tie, and he had his sleeves half-rolled again. My fingers itched to trace the taut-muscled lines of his forearms.” pic.twitter.com/kr9lMEqaqv
This but *her* or *their* taut-muscled forearms 🥵 #MSWL

#MSWL Witch bottles! The video on opening the bottle was a lot of fun to watch plus great inspiration for characters from the "cunning folk" who would use these as treatments. bornfreepress.substack.com/p/issue-19-wit…

I'm just a girl, standing in front of publishing, asking them to publish stories about disabled characters... by authors who have those disabilities. 🙏Yes!! I’m opening to queries on July 1, and I’d love to receive manuscripts with disabled characters! Also #BIPOC & #LGBTQ+. Would especially love indigenous characters/stories.
