I'm still looking for my speculative retelling/reimagining of the life of Hatshepsut. #MSWL Just putting that after since I finally got to read "Iron Widow."

Excited for this one and looking for more inspiring women's non-fiction! #mswl

I would like to find someone (with a platform, I gotta say) to write a nonfiction book for teen boys that would basically be titled HOW TO BE A MAN AND NOT AN ASSHOLE. #MSWL

Speculative fiction that explores the horror of being oppressed and allows marginalized people to reclaim power by any means necessary and without apology is a perennial #mswl item for me, and @lmpnk and @codiecrowley were really like “we got u”

I’m really on the hunt for some smart, compelling non-fiction. I saw this deal reported today and it’s right up my alley. Science AND revenge? What’s not to love? #MSWL

I am obsessed with friendships! Understanding the depth & importance of platonic relationships, friendship breakups, what kinds of relationships get prioritized & why, making meaningful connections as an adult.

Fiction or nonfiction, I wanna see! #MSWL

I know everyone is into fungus rn, but when QM/QT gets up and running again, I really want to see some cool bug fiction and even nonfic - insects doing weird and creepy stuff, impersonating things, infecting things, inhabiting things. Gimmie your creepy crawlies #MSWL
