Hey, #MSWL: I really want a beautiful magic university book. THE MAGICIANS or KINGKILLER CHRONICLES but feminist.

I love the idea that magic could be lurking in our world, if only we knew where to look. Have such a story (PB, MG, YA, adult speculative/horror)? Please send it my way! #MSWL

Fantasy worldbuilding props if there's a quasi-illegal alternate currency made out of very small persistent spells created in bulk in sweatshops by apprentice sorcerers, that is causing an inflationary bubble as it gradually depletes the global mana supply all magic relies on. twitter.com/redtwitdown/st…

Really craving an epically layered feminist* second world adult fantasy centered on art, politics, and earthy witchy magic.** #MSWL

Currently in the mood for lost histories, fallen gods, magic-infused cities, and dark, gothic woods...not necessarily in the same book. #mswl

Tiffany Shelton, Witch🕯️⛤🌙 @TiffanyDiahann

I'm going to keep shouting this out into the ether until I get it: GIVE ME CONTEMPORARY WITCHES! #MSWL #YA #Adult

#MSWL Charmed or Practical Magic adjacent for me, please.

#MSWL would love a Christmas romance filled with magic realism. Give me Santa, hidden secrets, wishes coming true, North Pole, lots of snow, whatever it is, let me feel the magic!

I know I won't see all the #PitDark pitches, so if you have a gritty, dark story set in Victorian London--maybe with a detective, maybe with some magic--and I miss it, send me a query! #mswl

Contemporary or contemporary with touches of magic, please and thanks #mswl

I love new, different worlds in fantasy or sci-fi. Magic is cool. Science is sweet. Aliens? Not so much. But, you could surprise me. What about witches? I'm still looking for a witch story. #MG #YA #A #MSWL

The more books I acquire, the more I realize that my brand is 100% “friendship is magic.” Give me your spooky, magical romps with strong relationships! #MSWL

Anne Thériault @anne_theriault

There’s a post circulating tumblr/Facebook asking why so many tween girls go through a witchy “let’s read fortunes and levitate” sleepover/jr. coven phase. I actually talked to an expert about this exact thing two years ago! medium.com/the-establishm…

I would die for a YA/MG along these lines. #MSWL Real magic or just imagined, doesn't matter. I especially like stories that focus on girl friendships/sisterhood.

Atlas Obscura @atlasobscura

Imagine you live in the 19th century. Most restaurants are closed by 8 p.m. Where do you go if you want a meal at a late hour? The answer: Night lunch wagons. pic.twitter.com/Ro4sR7OnxG

Someone write a book for me about these night lunch wagons. Maybe with a hint of magic? Because how could magic not be involved in this gorgeousness?? #mswl
