I never thought this day would come, and it still feels very unreal to me, but I'M GOING TO BE A PUBLISHED AUTHOR.

My book is a murder mystery set in Joseon Dynasty Korea, & also a coming-of-age tale about a girl searching for home. It'll be out in the world in 2020! 😭 pic.twitter.com/vQR0sRk8og

Oh I'll read the heck out of this one!

And it seems like a good time to remind #amquerying Twitter that high on my #MSWL for SFF/spec fic are stories set in Korea and/or that draw on Korean myth and history

Neil Gaiman @neilhimself

I really LOVE the myths and monsters of the Philippines. But you also have many terrific writers there who can do a better job of telling those stories than I can. twitter.com/joe_sunga/stat…

I'd really love stories that breathe new life into classic fairytales and myths. Would definitely like to see a fresh take on something like mermaids. #MSWL

Looking for lesser-known fairy tales reimagined and mythology, folklore, or fables from different parts of the world! #mswl

But when agent screws up, authors sometimes have trust issues.I get it, totally. Please don't hesitate to query me & talk opwnly if you were recently impacted by 1 of these events where an agent didn't do their job according to industry standards.I would love to see your work. 2/

#MSWL Adult and YA fantasy, sci fi, romance. Picture books featuring diversity, food, or fun word play. Middle grade based on unique mythologies, and always, diversity across all spectrums including LGBTQ, authors/characters of color, and neurodiversity. Queryme.online/naomidavis

You know what'd be cool to see more of in YA Fantasy? Mythologies no one has read before, like the hundreds of Native American tribes, or the 54 countries and thousands of tribes within Africa, or Haittian or Persian or Hittite. Something that can open our eyes and minds. #MSWL

I'm reading Circe by Madeline Miller right now and loving the hell out of it. Witches and gods and monsters and mortals... Feminist retellings of classic mythology is the BEST genre. Yeah, I just made it a genre of it's own. And every bookstore should have a section for it.

Let’s do this 👇🏽 #mswl

I'm still really looking for an amazing YA Fantasy #ownvoices manuscript based off Native American/Indigenous American mythology or tribal lore! I still really want this story written by a Native American writer. Where are you?! #MSWL

*Raises hand* Have ya'll forgotten the Mexican vamps I blessed you with? Reminder here: bit.ly/1KXWwn3. Anyway, I never stopped stanning vampires. Always up for non-western mythology based/POC vamps *whispers* and werewolves...#MSWL

#MSWL Urban Fantasy all ages, based off lesser-known legends and myths. Give me creatures that require research, that you don't see in every scary movie.

@blairpallen My favorite part of this thread is all the responses going 'I, TOO, WOULD EAT THE DOCTOR'

The area surrounding our pack's territory has, the most supportive and helpful and non-judgmental medical professionals in the world, because we ate the rest.

GOOD WORK, EVERYONE.

Replying to @mishafletch

I have the supernatural disease where every time I see a modern feminist twist on a historical/fantastical myth I am compelled to say #MSWL

Would love a Polish historical or Polish-inspired fantasy. a retelling of Prince Krakus and the dragon or Princess Wanda, featuring Poludnica, Lakanica, and other myths 💫 #MSWL

Queen Seondeok ruled one of the three kingdoms of Korea, Silla, in the 7th century CE. There are some outrageous legends about her, but what is obvious is that she was wise, strong & adept at rule. They still make dramas about her! #iwd2018 #InternationalWomensDay pic.twitter.com/vWSGouoAsp

PSA I am a literary agent who reads a lot about Korea and lived in Daejeon for years, wide open for your book pitches on heroines of Korean myth and history this #InternationalWomensDay esp by Korean/KA authors #MSWL #PitMad
