all i want is more hot wizard boyfriends in my inbox #mswl

HISTORICAL FANTASY or MAGICAL REALISM (in the true, anticolonial sense) with rich details, generational sagas, transportive settings and just enough magic 🪄#mswl

near-future, high-concept SCI-FI with a literary bent, that dissects our own world more clearly through another—looking for hopeful postapocalypses, dystopian utopias, Gibsonian cyberpunk from new perspectives #mswl

HORROR either in the lush, gothic, Crimson Peakian vein with sputtering candles, twisted family trees, forbidden corridors, etc.; or with a modern-day edge that cuts straight down to the nervy quick of our current moment, and would make Ari Aster or Jordan Peele proud #mswl

FOLKLORE, MYTH, and FAIRYTALE-inspired stories that tell the old tales from new perspectives, deify new gods, and give the monster their say. Would particularly love to see non-european inspirations here (but also yrs of Latin say I am a SUCKER for the greco-roman canon🏺)#mswl

SPACE OPERA with widescreen, cinematic scope and more social than hard science (linguistics!anthropology!), with lurid worlds and robust politics that interrogate the genre’s colonial history; bonus points for cool aliens, ships with personalities, unlikely humanism #mswl

HIGH FANTASY with fresh worldbuilding and intricate magic systems, ancient dynasties, court intrigue, lost lore, political backstabbing, sword girlfriends, wizard boyfriends, warrior queens, colonizers being colonized, enemies that should be lovers, yearning, GREAT outfits #mswl

off the top, I’m always looking for:

✨BIPOC voices, lore, histories, the stories only we can tell
✨queer visibility
✨distinct, unmistakable voice
✨high, character-driven stakes
✨beloved tropes used in new ways
✨literary chops and crossover potential
✨smooches💋
#mswl

#mswl on all of these please but especially the angsty ones

i am slamming the #mswl button, do you see me slamming it twitter.com/northgalis/sta…

between this and Oscar Isaac in the space armor I REALLY need someone to send me some latines in espace, for the love of god #mswl
