Random YA #MSWL: Something like the Carol & Barb origin flashback from Orange is the New Black but with more details about what drove them to become teen killers.

I, like everyone else, have been obsessed with "Anti-Hero" for months.
If your YA character would say "I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror," then hi, hello, I want to see your book. #MSWL

Lately, I'm obsessed with the podcast Normal Gossip. I'd love some fiction for any age that incorporates or relies on gossip - and not necessarily as a negative method of communication. #MSWL

I'd love a zeigtgeisty absurdist critique of modern inequalities (adult or YA) along the lines of White Lotus or Knives Out, ideally from the POV of marginalized characters.
Bonus points if it feels as unsettling as the White Lotus theme song! #MSWL

Speculative stories - I'm NOT a good fit for rigid dystopias full of government control and categorization of the populace.
Please send me speculative worlds that look like ours with One Big Change. Show me the human response to disaster, politics, or climate change. #MSWL

It's been a minute since I updated my wishlist on twitter, so...get ready for a #MSWL thread!!! pic.twitter.com/5YCtHYHCbnI'd really love to see more middle grade, particularly ones that tackle mental health and other difficult topics.
I'm also on a big MG in verse kick, and I'd like to see that in my inbox. #MSWL

The Tangut kingdom of Xixia employed Tibetan Buddhists skilled in war magic in their court. When the kingdom was laid to siege by Chinggis Khan, one such cleric summoned Mahakala on the battlefield, forcing the Mongols to retreat. pic.twitter.com/sgYbc6vsg1Tibetan fantasy please #mswl

The acting by @steveyeun @aliwong is superb, and the nuances of the Korean-American experience, down to the cutoff church shirts—I all but expired. So on point.Also, can I just say #MSWL 100x over!!! I need a diverse story that is darkly humorous and acerbic but still with a lot of heart.
