#MSWL if anyone’s writing historical mysteries about William H. West, I would love to see them!

I’d love a mystery with a framing device like SADIE: a podcast, documentary/mockumentary, or any other type of mixed media.

I’m REALLY looking for mystery/thrillers/suspense in both the YA and adult space, ESPECIALLY from marginalized populations. However, I am not the right fit for law enforcement protagonists or love interests.

SO I found out about true crime conferences, and I cannot stop thinking about a murder mystery that takes place at a conference where everyone is an armchair detective. #MSWL

Suspense/Mystery/Thriller set at a vacation destination #mswl

Gloomy, threatening, or naturally dangerous settings can go a long way in a thriller. But there’s something terrifying about bad things happening in beautiful, “safe” locations we associate w/ escape. This is a #mswl tweet but also promo for YOU CAN TRUST ME by @wendydheard

YA/NA #MSWL: although sci-fi is still tough, I always say things in publishing are tough but not impossible.

I’d love a BIPOC grounded sci-fi mystery/thriller that can be comp’d to DEVS/Tales From The Loop/The OA.

So this is really specific but I’d love to find a book that could be pitched as “Milk tea shop for villains” with a hot snarky grump boba barista. I’m talking low stakes, dark satire, with a mystery involved (also set in East Asia pls) #MSWL
