The indomitable @DaveHolmes recommended I watch CLASS ACTION PARK and I am involved. And now I absolutely want a novel set at a deeply mismanaged, absurd theme park. #MSWL

Turns out I'm not super into fae or sirens? Not a thing I knew before diving into QM, but I keep finding that it's not something I super connect w/. Kind of an anti #mswl I guess.
(That doesn't mean *dont* query me, it just means it's a harder sell that has nothing to do w/ you)

signing off until the New Year, when I'll be back with cleared decks and new #MSWL

Time to rewatch PUSHING DAISIES and be reminded that this is an #MSWL for voice for me. I like the vibes, the voice, the dark whimsy of it all.

Would love an MG or YA book whose theme/lesson is "sometimes your family sucks and you don't have to put them first actually." #mswl
I get a lot of "family is the most important thing" books which is sweet and all but... does not match my experience or that of many of my friends

My 11yo daughter sent four anonymous holiday candy grams in her class just to, in her words, "cause chaos." And per her report, by the time she left school the kids in her grade had all devolved into shouting and accusing one another. I've never been more proud.This sounds like a beautifully chaotic MG novel (or if it’s in high school and these are Valentine grams ❤️ YA) #MSWL

I want to see more dystopian-esque books tackling the patriarchy and oppressive religious institutions, but through the lens of colonialism. Those institutions subjugated countless people and destroyed so much of our history and culture and it would be nice to see it called out.#mswl please I’d love to see more of this

I wrote a book about a girl who reconnects with her 1st language as a way to reclaim her heritage. Then on my FYP I see many Asian diaspora talking about their experiences with forgotten/lost language. So many people have had this experience & I cant wait for my book to find themI would LOVE to see this book written by an indigenous creator with an indigenous MC. Bonus points for Cherokee or Choctaw Tribes.

When it comes to taste, I tend to be drawn to visual projects & prose w/strong imagery. #mswl For I was a kid whose art school dreams were dashed early on, & the inner art kid hasn't died yet. I doodle at a pace of 1x year & am planning the next. Last year's existential lantern:

Also if you have anything “inspired” by these stories, I’m also open to historical fiction or historical fantasy

I would love a story about the Onna-musha. Female trailblazers of Al-Andalus. The female fighters of Cuba, Algeria, Korea (written by women please)
Literary Agent
I’ve decided to open up my #mswl to Non-Fiction. I’m primarily looking for stories that center female revolutionaries/revolutions, anything that tackles themes of anticolonialism or highlights the stories of female leaders/queens/rebels of history. Think Amanirenas or Tomoe Gozen

@esc_key Clearly about 10 years. First a few unpaid internships, and then everyone knows you spend 2 years as an assassination assistant, then assistant assassin, and finally at associate assassin you get your own kills, and then assassin. 😂Now I have a #mswl about a girl with a dream who moves to the big city to live her dream of murder, but finds her company is shady.
