And then look at demographic predictions for the next 50 or 100 years. If you're writing #sciencefiction you need a diverse cast! #MSWL

Also, a lot of religions (for ex: Mormons) have large populations of POC but are not seen as having POC members. Stories welcome. #MSWL

#MSWL YA stories about young WoC but no love triangles! Novels about 'old' and 'middle age' women that have nothing to do with marriage!
