Nidhi Pugalia

What is happening?! Idk just a dream coming true. #mswl updates coming soon!

Oh and of course anything and everything here:
manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/nidh…

Writing that's sharp and biting, or writing that's lyrically astounding. Is there a touch of magic? A heap? Yes, I want it.

And I want all of it to be BIPOC and/or queer.

I'd really love to laugh, like a book about a bunch of aunties the rest of the community thinks are well past their prime--and I want to see them as full, gossipy, pushy people; what do they want? (And we return to BANDIT QUEENS!)

I want a mystery that characters wish they hadn't solved. A mystery that isn't about the mystery, really, at all, but about the people--the kind of ending that feels inevitable, like putting these people in that room at once--well, nothing else could have happened.

give me Heathcliff, give me the lover that has so misunderstood what love is that they perform deeds that leave them bloody. Give me a love that has soured and make me yearn for it anyways. I want more hauntings, more ghost stories.

Give me Practical Magic, I'm begging you.

entirely missed #mswl day--but in truth every day is MSWL day! I'm yearning for smart, irreverent fiction with true heart that dives into more than one voice: always dreaming of PORTRAIT OF A THIEF (@gracedli 👀) and THE BANDIT QUEENS. Give me a doomed, impossible love story...

I finished THE BANDIT QUEENS by @PariniShroff recently and CANNOT stop thinking about it. The hilarity! The murders! the whip-smart writing! The women, my god, these WOMEN. plus! a really good dog! I have never wanted to be a bonobo more 💕

I mean….#mswl

…do I have to say it? #mswl

plz #MSWL

for my #mswl more queer narratives à la Neel Patel including characters coming out at later stages of their lives, particularly from BIPOC cultures. I think about this all the time. Every day. 1 AM on a Sunday after cheer up Charlie’s. Thank you and good night.
