I want a sultry romance you know not a spicy romance but like a season 2 Bridgerton all-about-the-near-touch romance BIPOC set perhaps extremely specifically in dark academia maybe the stakes are super high maybe it's P&P meets Ninth House idk I haven't thought about it that muchplz #MSWL

Your run of the mill enemies to lovers story where the villain is obsessed with the heroine except this is the second iteration of the story; they were lovers before but she died in his arms so he went back in time and chose evil because maybe if she hates him, she’ll live.Love this. Enemies to lovers (& vice versa) is a trope I'm a huge sucker for, not to mention sympathetic villains (like Xu Wenwu) and heroes who are willing to be perceived as or who become villainous for noble reasons in the vein of The Dark Knight or Simon/Ice King #mswl

#MSWL As an @HCI_Books #editor and as a woman of a certain age who has recently had many conversations with my friends about perimenopause, I'd love to see something from #agents or #writers about this subject. Submission guidelines here: hcibooks.com/editorial/

This proposed national bill is sickening. To deem LGBTQ people as inappropriate for children, many of whom are young LGBTQ people themselves, is to call for the erasure of an entire population of people. We're already seeing this devastating quest for erasure with the book bans. twitter.com/Esqueer_/statu…Have a pile of submissions to get to but a #mswl that's been on my heart ever since my trans/NB partner told me they've never seen themself reflected in lit: more books (PB, MG, YA, GN) featuring genderqueer main characters pls. There's power in lit, and the fascists know it.

Yes, thanks for mentioning, @AnikaDenise! Upper MG is absolutely at the top of my #mswl, so if any kidlit authors have non-genre MG manuscripts with protagonists who are 13 or 14 and in 8th grade, I’d love to consider them for Holiday House.

D.B. Gee—Querying Speculative Fantasy! @DBGeeWrites
@featherfully Hi Feather! I took a peek at the website for the publishers in your bio but didn't see YA as an age range. You liked one of my pitches (thank you 🥹🥹), so I'm hoping to confirm you are interested in acquiring YA stories. Thank you!Hey D.B.! Oh gosh, that's strange. But YES—Atheneum publishes picture books, MG, YA, and graphic novels within the S&S Children's group. My specific #MSWL lives here, if you want to check it out: featherflores.com/mswl/. Any questions, give me a shout! (& ahh your pitch is 🔥🔥)
