Re: this thread, if someone wants to write me a fantasy novel about a kid who goes to magic school but realizes the entire structure of the magical world needs to be overthrown, I would be 100% there for that. Bonus points if they have to side with the dark wizards to do it #MSWL twitter.com/dreamoforgonon…ditto to this #MSWL

If you have received rejections lately, you absolutely should keep querying. But if this thread made you think "Well there was that one scene..." or "well I did decide to trim that to be like Writer McFamousDude..." GO FIX IT FIRST. Send me something mindblowing. You CAN do this.Literary Agent

It's late on Saturday and I'm thinking about sci fi, fantasy and YA fantasy after reading an epic ton of queries this last week. I'm going to kick your butt a bit here, okay? If you don't want that, scroll on. A thread #MSWL

I *need* a YA adaptation of this (times a billion).#mswl pic.twitter.com/3WyvVl3aZa
YES except also as adult fantasy about the rash decisions you made as an impetuous youth & an impetuous witch but now you're falling in love in your grumpy 30s over a magical contract you didn't think though w/lots of resigned sighs & awkward eye contact & netflix #mswl

In Finnish mythology it's believed that the Aurora Borealis is caused by a firefox who ran so quickly across the snow that it's tail caused sparks to fly into the night sky creating the Aurora. The Finnish word “revontulet” literally translates as "fox fire." #FolkloreThursday pic.twitter.com/IO3WVy6pwRBasis for a YA fantasy? #MSWL

#MSWL: anti-colonialist adult #SFF that’s not just about throwing off the hegemon’s rule, but also the complexities of economic independence, recovering lost cultural heritage, & constituting a government that doesn’t replicate oppressive structures put in place by the colonizer.I would love to see this. #mswl

#MSWL: adult #SFF where the real enemy isn’t one malicious individual or group—it’s a system, but the toppling of said system would inflict massive collateral damage on unsuspecting innocents. And then, if the revolution succeeds—what happens next?And you can just send such a book on through me, if you like. Wow! 😍#MSWL

#mswl SFF about mothers or parent figures whose children aren't dead but are still able to go on adventures.#MSWL - I definitely want more mothers in adult SFF. Also plz show me a pregnant heroine getting stuff IN ORDER (in an explosive fantasy landscape).
