A good friend has a juicy, layered 1920s mystery MS and I realized how hard it is to find amazing prohibition-era mysteries that aren't lighthearted sleuthing or cozy mysteries. I'd love your recs (and as always this is a #MSWL !)
The descent of a character going from a naive cinnamon roll into a ruthless and calculating villain is a particularly exquisite pain that I'm a total masochist for. *Cue ugly sobbing* #mswl

#mswl I go crazy for "surprising yet inevitable" moments in books. And if you can sprinkle *several* of these twists throughout your manuscript, I'll probably be smitten.

#mswl I adore close, soulmate-style friendships in stories, but I also love stories about having the courage to distance yourself from unhealthy friendships. I welcome stories with best friend breakups.

#mswl I’d love to see chapter books and MG and YA stories with humor that works on multiple levels -- funny for young readers and funny in a more nuanced or ironic way when they reread it years later.

A4: I wish there were more editors, agents, reviewers, and award committee members with an interest in earth science, physics, and chemistry. Why are nearly all science-themed picture books about animals and life sciences?#BlackinSTEM #scicomm #scbwisummerspec #scbwiEquity
I'm currently closed to queries but I am ALWAYS interested about science themed PBS, including earth science, physics and chemistry! (My second picture book as an author also features the six simple machines - PRINCESSES CAN FIX IT! @PageStreetKids 5/4/21) #MSWL

I would love to see some great picture books for these sciences. I had second grade patrons who wanted these! #MSWL

Just read this lovely (and surprisingly touching!) article about marmalade... I adore this type of visceral, emotional food writing and I’d love to see more of it in my inbox, either in memoir or cookbook form! longreads.com/2020/07/23/mar…#MSWL all the food writing!

Thread:My tweet on an alternative for a Fiddler on the Roof remake got a little bit of traction, so I decided to put some more ideas for new Jewish representation out there because we truly need it. Here we go!!! 1/
