Looking for this as well!! #mswl

I have been asking for this for a while, too. Please send! #MSWL

*As always, include this tweet somewhere in your query!

Hello. Yes please. And don’t bother translating for white folks. Just write it. Thanks. #mswl

“A crime drama that takes place in the latter half of the 19th century during the Tong Wars in San Francisco's Chinatown” = a description of awesome TV show Warrior and also on my #mswl ❤️

On my #MSWL too! Epic fantasy that broadens the category outside its "typical" settings (read: the European-inspired settings that publishing has poured money into while passing over fantasy from non-white cultures) is fantasy I want to represent.

Perhaps it's the Twitter algorithm, but I've seen a couple of other heist tweets today, so this is a reminder! I will, of course also accept treasure hunting books, and if they're queer, so much the better. #MSWL

Sweet, wholesome, good girls 😈 #mswl

Girl’s just wanna have fun, amiright 😉 #mswl

Energy 😍 #mswl

I REALLY REALLY want a YA road trip/girls trip book. Silly, funny, friendship, vibezzz. Unforgettable memories that remain secrets foreverrrr. Please. #mswl

I really love the “spending the summer back home” premise in middle grade and YA, especially when “back home” is so varied for Black peoples. Grandma/aunty/cousin’s house is often the perfect background for all kinds of stories. More please! #mswl

I’d really love to read a hilarious chapter book or middle grade full of black characters going on silly adventures. #mswl

Yes to all this but BIPOC too, pls!
#mswl

Today's #MSWL is a heist story. Young adult (like SIX OF CROWS) or adult (like MONEY HEIST), or even MG (for which I can't think of an example)—I want to see the mastermind behind the planning, the action, the drama, the romance that blossoms with danger around every turn!

“Middle Grade: luscious fantasy based on myths/traditions from non-Western culture.” @msmariavicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation

And in other news: stay tuned for more SUPER exciting news about my authors Jon and Emily Jordan's THE WAR QUEENS about extraordinary women who led their nations in combat! #calltheelection #certifyTheVote #quotes #mswl #literaryagent #history #books #COVID19 #Covid_19

I'll be updating this thread over the next few days with #mswl thoughts and ideas as they occur to me, and I'll start with saying that if you have a western, especially a historical one featuring queer and/or BIPOC characters, please hit me up!

I realize the vagueness of this #mswl, but I adore Melissa McCarthy with my whole being and I'd love to see some subs featuring protagonists that live with the same kind of heart, humor, and joy.
