All I want to do is watch Cartoon Saloon movies for the rest of my life. In fact, anything with the same heart as The Secret of Kells or Song of the Sea is my eternal #MSWL

Baroque-Inspired Portraits Celebrate the Beauty of Black Girls’ Natural Hair: bit.ly/2hFb2Oi pic.twitter.com/GkbcxIRNov

This should be part of someone's mood board for an SFF. At this point, I don't even care what it's about. #mswl

rachel syme @rachsyme

if you are a writer looking for a new story or book project or thread to pull: let me suggest that you get ambitious about looking backwards for the women no one is talking about, whose stories have been obscured, twisted, forgotten, or told through a gaze that wasn't their own

Just add magic. #mswl

Magic

T. R. Darling @QuietPineTrees

The “lunar gothic” style of architecture could be seen on every moon and asteroid in the solar system. We crafted dead rocks into castles of dark, lacy towers. Their stained glass windows glowed sky-blue in the light of the faraway sun, holding back the terror of living the void.

hello I like this type of SF pls send #mswl

Trust Black Women and Paid Them Damnit @CreatyveBooks

Dear YA,

Stop saying certain genres are dead. I'm still waiting for my Black Witches. My Black shapeshifters, vampires, fairies, demon slayers. Hell I'm still waiting for my Black Love story. Also fluffy carefree fat girls.

There's a demand so make it happen

#MSWL ALL OF THIS 🙌🏼💜📚

I will read your Black witches/ shapeshifter/ vampire/ demon slayer manuscripts TOMORROW.

Inspired by the last DaVinci going up for auction, literary fiction about art theft or lost paintings #MSWL

Concept: Werewolves with irregular shifting cycles

“Yeah, I haven’t shifted in, like—“ *checks app* “—42 days? So I’m just chaining myself up in the basement every night, you know? A bit annoying, but it saves on mess.”

#MSWL! Intelligent/humanoid #SFF species dealing with real life issues that make sense for their physiology/society with a combination of technology, logic/common sense, and snark.

Sarah Guan @Sarah_Guan

War disproportionately/differently impacts different populations w/in the same society. Veterans vs civilians, but also: different socioecon groups, industries (wartime vs peacetime economies), urban vs rural, ethnic minorities—esp ones w/ historic ties to "the enemy." #MSWL #SFF

Replying to @Sarah_Guan

I see lots of books about kings, generals, &c.—the people who get to make decisions that shape a nation. But theirs aren't the only stories about war, nor always the most interesting—or necessary. (& history is full of great generals who became AWFUL peacetime leaders) #MSWL #SFF
