It angers me that no one has made a historical-fiction apocalypse book. Do you understand the fookin potential? Why is the apocalypse only set in present time??You’re telling me ZOMBIES or an epidemic wouldn’t be “”realistic”” in the past?? Open your MIND, BRO. IT’S FICTION

#mswl - a sweeping middle grade series with heart and humor! Related, but more specifically: a middle grade series with puzzle-y elements. And, always, middle grade with magic, especially cozy magic!“Cozy magic” is my new eternal wish list item. EXTREME bonus points if I get a magical school with it. #mswl

I want to go on a Survivor/Naked and Afraid style trip that is set up like an Escape Room. Meaning you are dropped on a deserted beach and the object is to see how long you can last before you give up and they take you to the resort for the rest of your stay. 1/2Because my hubby thinks he can do better than these survivalists (despite having a major aversion to being cold and/or wet and/or hungry) and I'd love to see him try. Like Castaway, but as a vacation.
Also, why not, let's #mswl that.

One of the things good gothic fantasy & claustrophobic scary spaceship stories have in common is that they both do setting-as-character well.Really, any setting can be made to feel like a character. Creepy castle? Floating city? Jungle that *devours* people? YES.

Absolutely a #MSWL for me, as well! Send these to me so I can send them to @Sarah_Guan :)

the teeeeeeens are at it agaiiiiiiin theatlantic.com/technology/arc… pic.twitter.com/eKRyLCWTzA#MSWL These are the kinds of details that build a convincing, contemporary YA world. Teens are intertwined with digital communication, and they're secretive, which means they're going to figure this shit out on their own. So much to mine! Write it true.

If you have middle grade or YA project that feels like #OneDayAtATime with all of that amazing diverse representation, please send it my way. I’ll need to fill the hole created by its cancellation. #mswl

I need more books that use settings *as* characters as well. I love living histories! Places can d/evolve and have arcs of their own. Stories can happen *to* and not just *in* them. And exploring that doesn't have to be pigeonholed as worldbuilding alone.One of the things good gothic fantasy & claustrophobic scary spaceship stories have in common is that they both do setting-as-character well.
