#MSWL if someone would like to write a picture book biography about all the marvelous, kind, beautiful things Robin Williams did with his brilliant and complex life, I would like to be first in line to see it!

JOANNA NEWSOM BOT @jnewsombot

Life is thundering blissful towards death
in a stampede
of his fumbling green gentleness.
You stopped by;
I was all alive.
In my doorway, we shucked and jived.
And when you wept, I was gone;
see, I got gone when I got wise.
But I can’t with certainty say we survived.

#MSWL for a YA that carries this same heart

I am SO happy to see more Native representation and celebration!! Agents, I am always looking to amplify Native voices in any genre or age range (with children’s publishing), so just putting that out there ;) #MSWL

I would believe literally any story so long as it takes place in a Waffle House. Waffle Houses exist at the intersection of all dimensions. Anything is possible once you step in.

Waffle House as a gateway to alternate dimensions and the goofball teens who meet there is 10000% on my #MSWL

I don't do much YA but if someone wants to write an alien contact SF, I'd take a look! #mswl

YES! Always always thinking about what first contact would look like. Basically, gimme YA or MG Arrival ❤️

Hi! I’m putting it out into the universe that I‘d love to acquire more middle grade novels! I want to find strong personalities and big hearts, stories about finding confidence and discovering friendship, magical stories, contemporary tales, amplifying marginalized voices. #MSWL

I cannot believe that I am one day away from watching @LovecraftHBO . So I‘m gonna channel this energy and The Secret some stuff into the Universe: Please send all supernatural horror YA that centralizes PoC and examines racism and intersectional feminism via monsters thx!! #MSWL

Hi I would give ANYTHING to acquire a middle grade novel that’s like the nostalgic, slice-of-life, utterly precious gift that is Only Yesterday. #MSWL
