A friendly reminder before we start 2018 Twitter Pitch Season.Not every book with a black MC can be "Black Panther meets XYZ."
Friendly reminder to publishing:
Not every diverse BOOK in the next 3 yrs can be "Black Panther meets XYZ."

BLACK PANTHER. My heart is full; my brain is on fire.
I want stories like it in my inbox. I want to help them reach readers. But, as one wise writer notes, “#MSWL = #BlackPanther!” is reductionist—however truly felt.
So, a list of specific things I LOVED & want more of in #SFF:
Literary Agency
"A diverse, contemporary YA novel about strong guy friendships. Think Poe and Finn. <3" @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl/

Now for some specifics! In romance, I am particularly interested in historical romances, and would love to see more diversity in my submissions. Let's see the Regency, Victorian, and Edwardian periods through different eyes.

I didn't get to peek at #KissPitch today, but hoping to do some poking around tonight and tomorrow. If I fave, please follow the submission guidelines at QueryMe.Online/AmandaJain.I am particularly looking for diverse historical romance, so if you have it and I don't see you, feel free to send me a query! #mswl #amquerying #amwriting

#MSWL sci-fi that has an unexpected&captivating structure. Characters that have layers upon layers of depth. Sci-fi elements that inspire MC to change. One of my favorite SF movies/stories is ARRIVAL/STORY OF YOUR LIFE(Ted Chiang), for the unique time&relationship layout.#MSWL LGBTQ+/Diverse characters a plus in all submissions.

hi, yes, hello,I'd really like to see, not only more black main characters in YA, but also black characters with black support systems; familial, friend, professional, academic.

Twisty, absurdly funny, fast-paced psychological thrillers, with #ownvoices teen POC, attacking ideas of identity, paranoia, plunder. Think 'Ripley' meets 'Get Out.' #MSWL #YA
