Aunt Polly was a hot-headed tornado caged by patriarchy, enraged behind every blink of her eye & was smarter than all the murderous Peaky Blinders lumped together. If you've written a Historical Thriller abt a female crime boss that rivals her energy, I want to read it.

A few specific #mswl bits I'm on the hunt for at the moment: character-driven sci-fi (THE LAST WATCH), gothic horror (THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE), immersive mystery (Attica Locke's Highway 59 series), and journalistic nonfiction (Patrick Radden Keefe is a favorite).

The first submission we got to critique this week features parentified children, a theme that's at the very top of my #MSWL — thank you to all writers who share your brilliant work with us. We appreciate your trust!

Really craving a slow burn romance, possibly w/a redeemable villain-type or enigmatic guy. If it’s surrounded by an epic type story w/ a large cast (maybe a trilogy or series), I’d be over the moon. #MSWL #amquerying #amwriting #amwritingfantasy #amediting #WritingCommnunity

Congratulations to Jazmia and Nicole!

Please don't forget those lovely poly romances! I'd love to see more in my box similar to @ZREllor's upcoming SILK FIRE or @MegLaTorre's The Cyborg Tinkerer! #MSWL

The plot of It's Raining Men is honestly a banger sci-fi concept #MSWL

“I am on the hunt for non-fiction in MG. Show me glimpses of history that haven’t been taught to younger students before, collections of pieces, anthologies." @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

"Dark, twisted, borderline disturbing… words I’d use to describe my interest in thrillers. Not looking for gore at the moment, but definitely into psychological elements. Especially fictionalized accounts of actual crimes." @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/
