I watched The Lake House with my fave #KeanuReeves over the weekend and it made me long for a modern genre-bending time travel romance. Send me yours, please. I'm thinking anything along the lines of #TheLakeHouse and also #PalmSprings with Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti #mswl

#MSWL for my NF writing friends. I am always, always open to stories about food and drink, especially those with a bit of a quirk to them like this!

Slow burn doesn't necessarily mean less romance, it means there's so much sexual tension that the reader/watcher nearly explode with feels when the characters so much as hold hands because of all the longing and yearning the characters have gone through just to get to that point.Slow burn roms with some com on the side, please #MSWL

🎃 Abbott & Costello meet ... Ben Schwartz! 🧟♂️ @benschwartz_
As long as Bob Hope is trending, I'll put this out there: I'd love to write a piece on Bob's actual politics. He's often claimed by the right, but he was pro gay rights, pro union, pro gun control, anti-McCarthy, and for amnesty for Vietnam draft resistors. He'd be a Dem now. DM!

I do not wish to read another story anout "geniuses" & how they spent their time w/out the corresponding info about who was doing their cooking & cleaning. Someone compile that into a book (if they haven't already) & call it "Who was cooking for Darwin?"

This weekend I inhaled NOTHING TO SEE HERE by Kevin Wilson (TY @gracetowery for the rec!). It is SO MY BRAND. If you could comp your MS to it, please send it my way: a funny, dark, character-driven story with a weird twist (in this case, kids who spontaneously combust!). #mswl

Thank you for the fabulous queries you've sent! Here's more about what I'm most drawn to:•Projects that are character-driven, tightly plotted, and have a singular, specific voice.
•Writing that’s confident, vivid, addictive; work that’s both ambitious and wise. #mswl
•Layered, flawed, completely human characters.
•Humor is important, even in a narrative that’s dark or sad or edgy.
•Sense of place matters—precise, expressive settings delight me. #mswl
