Samantha Wekstein is closed to queries @SWekstein

Tomorrow I reopen to queries! So here are a few #MSWL posts for when that happens!

I'd love to see a fantasy rom-com or fantasy comedy. My favorite movie is The Princess Bride after all. #MSWL

I'd love an #ownvoices upmarket 20th C historical fiction - ideally with a secret something that has to be revealed (I'm thinking ala Lovecraft Country without the Lovecraftian horror/fantasy elements, which is ridiculous to say but I want it) #MSWL

Lovecraft Country has me inspired! I’d love to see more Black fantasy novels! Give me your Afrofuturism! Your Black kids discovering time travel and new dimensions! (while leaving slavery out of it, please) #MSWL

I'm usually a strict SFF kind of girl, but guys, with the world as terrible as it is right now, I just want to read some fabulous, sexy romances--SFF or contemporary alike. So agents, send them my way! #MSWL

Studies into healing revealed that full moon amplified the electrical charge in living cells. A sensitive voltmeter,attached to a tree picked up a faint electrical force. However, at the time of the full moon, this force soared upward on the scale. equinoxastrology.com/LunarLore.htm pic.twitter.com/70e4zE9bWr

Now what if that charge was magic or a different kind of energy? Young adult or adult #SFF with BIPOC, LGBTQ+ characters #MSWL

For the longest time I did not know just how many Filipino/a/x were writing SFF *bc the callous disregard & apathy of white fandom was erasing us.* That’s a huge reason why I grit my teeth & fight like hell for me & others to be visible & recognized in these spaces. twitter.com/BenCKinney/sta…

Same here. I'd love to see these stories. #ownvoices #SFF #MSWL

Thinking a little bit about #MSWL tonight! I'm actively seeking Adult SFF. I look for explosively different worlds, intricate politics,new/different presentations of magic,&sci fi that focuses on influence of tech rather than tech itself. Writing quality/originality matters most.

Fantasy (cont.):

-A DREAM acquisition: whimsical MG contemp fantasy with the clever wordplay of #AliceInWonderland and #ThePhantomTollbooth 😍
-Another DREAM: slice-of-life stories that take place in high fantasy settings (aka fantasy elements are facts of world&nothing more) pic.twitter.com/Bd6fP3gA6y

Putting this out there in the world again:

(Please make my “edit-a-book-with-the-WONDERFUL-plus-FUN-wordplay-and-whimsy-of-Alice-in-Wonderland” dreams come trueeeee (even if it’s YA)!!😭😭😭) #MSWL

Anyway. Black lives matter and Black speculative fiction matters.

Always looking for this in MG, YA, or Adult. #SFF #BVM #MSWL

I never thought I’d want anything to do with #TheCanterburyTales once I graduated but now I feel like a YA contemp/fantasy novel (loosely) inspired by/based on it (like structurally) could be really cool???

Guess after having it in 4+ classes, the brainwashing worked...

Also a #MSWL of mine!

4. LatinX representation in kidlit- all ages, all genres, though I am particularly interested in finding a YA contemp & a MG fantasy! A few favorites: @LauraTNamey, @Nina_Writes, @acevedowrites, @djolder, and @CeliaCPerez. (You should be reading *all* of them!)

1. Adult Horror: I want books that have something to SAY--about our present, our past, our future. Feminist/anti-colonialist stories are close to my heart, but I'm open to anything that can be described as "smart + terrifying." I'm also open to grounded fantasy w/ horror elements
