Because charging headlong into a skyline scorched black by enemy bullets and hellfire wasn't badass enough. These men did it all with 70 pounds of compressed gas strapped to their backs. #MSWL

straight up hopping on this train. #mswl

Dear Twitter, I want to expand the nonfiction side of my list. Please send me your feminist narrative nonfiction, pop culture proposals, and anything food related. #mswl

#MSWL sweet contemporary romance #pleaseandthankyou

Further to my last tweet . . . what can the Instant Pot NOT do?! Instant Pot Hacks (kidding, not kidding) #MSWL

I've changed my #MSWL a bit lately and am adding more and more talented NF authors to my roster. @norsemeat knocked it out of the park with this project that I pulled straight from our slush pile of queries!

"#YA with a protagonist like Blaine Anderson (Glee): slightly nerdy, hopeless romantic, perfectionist, angsty." @msmariavicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation/

Still on the lookout for more literary horror. Help an agent out? #mswl

#MSWL PLEASE!

#MSWL. As women become more vocal about their experiences, I would love to find some narrative nonfiction that deals with motherhood and the often painful journey women undergo to realize this dream.

Nonfiction: books about food (always!), travel, history, art, and culture. I love to see projects that show the intersections of these topics. For instance, I'd love to see one on food deserts in America and how they disproportionately affect minority communities. #mswl

Fantasy & Sci-Fi: I gravitate towards fantasy that's very much grounded in the real world, and SF that's light on the sci, heavy on the fi. Give me characters I can't let go of with rich world building and a runaway plot. #mswl

Mystery: historical--again, especially diverse historical--cozies, and mysteries with so much atmosphere you can practically wring it out of the pages. If your setting is integral to your story, I want to see it! #mswl

Thrillers: I'm still open to domestic thrillers and psychological suspense, but I'd love to see some that don't feature a somehow "damaged" woman as the protagonist. Where are my ordinary women? #mswl

Time for some #mswl tweets! Here's a peek at what I'd love to see in my query inbox. Romance: historical--especially diverse historical--rom suspense, and contemp romcom. As a general rule, I'm far more likely to fall for a story that makes me laugh than one that makes me cry.

#mswl romcom about Senate School 😂

"Female criminal masterminds, the full spectrum from evil kingpins to lovable thieves." @kurestinarmada #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

#mswl a YA novel about a boy like Jordan Blue.

#MSWL for books by, and about, veterans. There are still some incredible stories that haven't been told yet. #VeteransDay2018
