Lucy's #MSWL: Scottish romance. I want highlands, castles, lochs, tartan, haggis, whiskey, gingers and a bagpiping love interest. #AmWriting

To sum up: who's writing that drum corps YA novel starring a POC filled w/ drum corps summer drama? I want to acquire it! #MSWL @DCI

And drum corps is a VERY physical activity--there were days I marched 12-14 hrs in summer heat. I gained 20 lbs & lost 2 sizes. #MSWL

And then on personal level, you're in VERY close quarters w/ people very different from you for several months, all working on music #MSWL

And all leading up to the big shebang: do we qualify at Drum Corps International? #MSWL

Drum corps summers have an excellent plot structure: how does a kid raise money for it? Finally off on tour. Prep for competitions. #mswl

The idea of corps as a perfect place for a YA novel has been at the back of my mind for a long time. #MSWL

In corps I made my first friends who were from backgrounds completely different from mine: a Muslim girl, an Iranian Jewish girl #MSWL

Just one example of a high-class corps that's still marching today--the @scvanguard: youtube.com/user/SantaClar… #MSWL
