I'm interested in a wide range of fiction & would love to add more nonfiction to my list. I prefer NF to be accessible & conversational (in the vein of Mary Roach for kids), & often like nonfiction lessons packaged in a fun fictional story (like my client @Stef_Wade's books!).

Just putting this out there: I don’t necessarily know what it would look like, but I would lose. my. mind. over boy band NF. Maybe something about their managers a la the Lou Pearlman thread of the BSB documentary? #mswl

today's Stained Page News reminded me how much I love unexpected crossovers (like coding and cooking!), so #MSWL for nonfiction crossovers b/w subjects (esp, food and the environment!)

NONFICTION: I am interested in SO MANY THINGS and I am begging, BEGGING, for the next Mary Roach to enter my inbox. Story-fying the truth or the weird is most important to me. Nonfiction needs voice as much as any novel. #MSWL

I am interested in books (both fiction and nonfiction) about rural places, small towns, insular communities, imagined or reshaped versions of these as well. My client, @swbrooman has a story collection, THE PUMP, that encapsulates what I would love to see. #MSWL

As far as nonfiction, I am looking for narrative nonfiction, science, and pop culture books. I am not looking for straight personal memoir, only memoirs that really explode with research, second and third angles, or tell a story beyond the self. #MSWL

And while I'm sure I'll add to this list, if you've got anything geeky, fun, and full of twists on the fiction side, or prescriptive on the nonfiction side, I definitely want to see it! :) #MSWL

NF: Fresh and modern takes on relationship/dating projects. The key for me here is to approach the work with a lens that does not treat the cis-het relationship as the default/baseline/or norm. #MSWL
