In a first-of-its-kind collaboration, Disney Animation and Pan-African entertainment company Kugali will team up to create an all-new, science fiction series coming to #DisneyPlus in 2022: Iwájú. Check out a first look at visual development art from the series. pic.twitter.com/9iuWFDr61T🤩 This looks amazing! Can’t wait to watch!
(And I’d love to work on some kids books with the same feel. #mswl)

Juuuust putting it out there~We could use more cartoonists in the kids graphic novel market. Especially marginalized cartoonists. Especially WOC.
It's an eagerly growing market. Lotsa big publishers are aching for more GNs... and the money's pretty good. 👀

So bummed @Brooklyn99FOX is being cancelled! But I am loving seeing all of these great posts about how important (& hilarious) the show is. I want to publish books just like it—joyous, culturally relevant, edifying, & respectful to its audience. #RenewBrooklyn99 #mswl

Any book, genre, or comp I've ever asked for on twitter (or on the MSWL site) but with #ownvoices please.Surprised by how little submissions I get from agents w/ Latinx authors/main characters. You've got a guy on the inside, let me help 😁 #mswl

My 1st #mswl tweet of the day. Book that fits this description: “She was warned. She was given an explanation. Nevertheless, #ShePersisted.”

I think the full run of Gravity Falls might be the greatest middle grade fantasy I've ever experienced in any medium.Absolutely loved the show. Sad it's over, but interested to see if I'll find something to take its place. #mswl twitter.com/mradamrex/stat…

Funny picture books in general--even better if there are nods to parents--like books by Mac Barnett, Jory John, Peter Brown & the like #mswl

Perhaps a bit too much enthusiasm in my last tweet. You might not know it, but I'm interested in picture books too #mswl

Always liked stories about cloning. If you have an original take on this theme, send it along! MG or YA. #MSWLMG/YA ORPHAN BLACK. One of my fave TV shows. Love the balance of the scifi, intrigue, & the family dynamics. #mswl twitter.com/susanhawk/stat…

HUMOR. If you're writing something funny - esp like wry, smart humor - I'd love to see it. PB, CB, MG, YA. #MSWLAlways! You make me laugh out loud and I'm going to do what it takes to buy your book. #mswl twitter.com/susanhawk/stat…

YA magical realism with mystery and a dark side like Nova Ren Suma's THE WALLS AROUND US or Laura Ruby's BONE GAP. #MSWL

YA Master of None. Cleverly written about hard truths of what it's like to date as a teen but also some light @ the end of the tunnel #mswl
