The only reason I acknowledge the holiday of Thanksgiving is because of OG Gossip Girl. It’s the season for mess and I want these vibes, outing of secrets, the Jason Derulo background. Pure art.

I badly want contemporaries w/ensemble cast chaos

The Owl House is, and will probably always be, my god tier of children’s media. The found family. The humor. The magic and demonic world building. The middle grade storytelling that is actually universal and so smart and witty. The humor and heart. The rep. All of it. #mswl

Hi🧍🏽‍♀️I’m opening to queries soon!

I took a break to dive deep into projects on my list & also read/watch new media I fell for.

I have an updated #mswl for querying authors to look at on my website, but I also wanted a 🧵thread below for anyone thinking we might make a rad team!

#MSWL 5/5 Compelling #historical fiction that contributes to today's cultural conversation or helps us understand the world a little better--and that makes me want to google everything there is to know about that time/incident/place/culture

#MSWL 4/5 Gateway #horror or mystery/horror crossovers. Spooky, sometimes dark novels for the scaredy cats like me who have become fans of masters like Alma Katsu and Alex North.

#MSWL 3/5 Page-turning, atmospheric, sharply written #crime, #suspense, #thrillers They're sometimes about family/relationships or social issues or culture but are very much in their genre.

#MSWL 2/5 Novels with an emotional center--the kind that hits you in the heart or gut and sometimes the funnybone. These novels (often #bookclub) don't always have happy endings but they are ultimately hopeful.

Almost caught up on queries! Here's a current #MSWL Query link in bio. Diverse, under represented voices always welcome. More to come in '22 Happy Holidays! 1/ 5 #writingcommunity 🧵

OK, yes, this is horrifying. But as someone equally obsessed with food & horror, this is like an excerpt right out of my dream novel, so big #MSWL energy in this foamy mouth.

What a great article. Hidden history about the African-American history of the Outer Banks #obx. I learned about this from my mother but it's new to many people. Also #mswl fiction or non-fiction.

“If anyone's working on an adult novel that can comp Scream AND something super millennial like The Herd or A Special Place for Women, I want to see it.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

SAME! Gimme Yelowjackets! #MSWL

I’m watching The Spiderwick Chronicles and WOW I would love to rep a book like this. Holly Black is a genius. #mswl

“#OwnVoices stories particularly if you identify as BIPOC. As a mixed-raced Latinx immigrant myself I am passionate about representing under- or misrepresented voices. If you are comfortable, please include your background and inspiration.” @ceciliaclyra #MSWL

I'm not open to queries until next year but while I'm thinking about it, I love books that deal with a future shaped by climate change. WANT by @cindypon and THE ONES WE'RE MEANT TO FIND by @joanhewrites are two of my favorites #mswl

“YA historical fiction based on a music subculture (disco, grunge, emo, etc.)” @agentvicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation

#MSWL but witches/vampires/werewolves/etc.

I was thinking about books I loved this year, which prompted me to update my #MSWL. I'm such a sucker for books that really dig into the way we connect with each other.

Super cool - I would rep/read that book! #MSWL
