My #mswl always includes historical fiction, but I want to have *this* reaction to it. I want a voice that's vibrant and ALIVE, that feels immediately like a person I could know, that makes the quiet parts feel intimate and the stakes feel personal.

"Would love an East/West Germany or Berlin Wall historical with a romantic hook. Something sweeping and heartbreaking." @carlywatters #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

As a Korean-American, I'm on the hunt for anything that showcases my culture and heritage. I want to boost our stories across genres: contemporary, historical, SF/F...again, own-voices only. #mswl

I just finished watching The Favourite and I have so many #MSWL wants. I want powerful women in historicals, as opposed to empowered, with power plays and antics, friendships and romance, deep nuanced character relationships and falling outs.

I am going to do 5 FEMINIST WISH LIST READS on this #InternationalWomensDay

5) I want a Hist Rom, heroine firmly on the shelf, not widowed or previously married or ruined paired w/a Swaggy Young Duke Who is like: If I weren't at Eton when you came out I wld have been ALL ABT U

4) I want an Ocean's 8 Heist Something. It could be a historical or a period piece to change up the game on the AWESOME movie, but give me a book with lots of women doing lots of daring SH*T!!

Hello querying writers! I updated my #MSWL on my blog: carlywatters.com/2019/02/26/201…

"Historical novels where plot & setting have to work together i.e. NIGHTINGALE, ARCADIA, GIRL YOU LEFT BEHIND. I want a very plotty historical. Beatriz Xilliams-Esque." @carlywatters #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Yes, please! #MSWL

#MSWL especially those set in Latin American countries like @lydiaallthetime titles.

ALL THE #MSWL!!!

“YA like MY LADY JANE or GENTLEMAN’S GUIDE—playing with historical w/a fun, contemporary voice.” @kurestinarmada #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

There is a historical novel waiting to happen. #MSWL

Anyone wanna give me a historical fiction on Madame de Pompadour? So wanting that right now #MSWL

There are lots of things I'm on the lookout for, but right now I'd *really* love to find a high-concept crime/thriller, a love story and an upmarket historical #MSWL

Aaaand I will take this in YA and Adult! @ZREllor and I shall have duels ⚔️ #mswl
