Hi, #amquerying authors! If you're writing suspense/a thriller with a really evocative setting - whether a gloomy manor, a remote edge of the earth, an island paradise, a luxe hotel, a city's underbelly - PLEASE send it my way! I'm desperate for an escapist page turner... #MSWL

Random but what if there was a story about a society in which you had to pay for EVERY single meme/gif you use? Sounds silly but could be dark & have magic (bc why not?). A whole war/revolution fought b/w free the meme-ers and ppl should be paid for use of their image-ers.

I tweeted about this again months later (twitter.com/oyinatiomi/sta…) and I’m still very much intrigued by this concept! #mswl

It is autumn and summer has ended and this photo makes me think of @CEllisWriter’s AT SUMMER’S END (out next year) and serious #mswl for more books with these vibes

#MSWL: Gothic. Give me YA, Adult, anything that speaks to the atmosphere of du Maurier, Jackson, Hill, Purcell, or Waters. Looking for the perfect cross between feminine and terrifying.

Today's Doodle: Journalist Jovita Idar, fierce critic of anti-Mexican violence & border militarization, and great Tejana feminist, who stopped Texas Rangers from shutting down her family newspaper in 1914. She resisted white supremacists & stood for truth. Let's do the same. pic.twitter.com/RQcCWncgJp

If you’re a MG horror author who’s like “hm I think I’m gonna submit to that Savannah Brooks fellow, she seems cool” but don’t know what my ~spooky aesthetic~ is, I just finished reading THIRTEENS, and it nailed the location-based spooks I’m pining for. I want a spook town. #MSWL

I would like to read a YA RomCom set in the time of corona. You have to make it work while still having them behave safely (masks! 6ft apart!). Anybody working on this? #mswl

Studies into healing revealed that full moon amplified the electrical charge in living cells. A sensitive voltmeter,attached to a tree picked up a faint electrical force. However, at the time of the full moon, this force soared upward on the scale. equinoxastrology.com/LunarLore.htm pic.twitter.com/70e4zE9bWr

Now what if that charge was magic or a different kind of energy? Young adult or adult #SFF with BIPOC, LGBTQ+ characters #MSWL

Michi the Adorable Tiny Demon @🏡🔥🍜📖🦄 @GeekMelange

For the longest time I did not know just how many Filipino/a/x were writing SFF *bc the callous disregard & apathy of white fandom was erasing us.* That’s a huge reason why I grit my teeth & fight like hell for me & others to be visible & recognized in these spaces. twitter.com/BenCKinney/sta…

Same here. I'd love to see these stories. #ownvoices #SFF #MSWL

I'll add more #MSWL tweets through the week for other genres! I opened to queries Sept. 15 and am caught up to September for queries, though I have full manuscripts older than that. I look forward to reading yours!

Thinking a little bit about #MSWL tonight! I'm actively seeking Adult SFF. I look for explosively different worlds, intricate politics,new/different presentations of magic,&sci fi that focuses on influence of tech rather than tech itself. Writing quality/originality matters most.
