Here is my controversial Star Wars statement: I would love to read a teen Poe Dameron YA in which he breaks hearts across the galaxy while longing for his OTP, but I don't think I'm the person to write it. We need #ownvoices for that. So somebody write that, and I'll read it.Come at me with this book, YA writers #ownvoices. #mswl

Jordan Peele: "When I started to write this film, I set out to make a movie that would be my favorite movie that I had never seen." #GothamAwardsThis is all my #MSWL forever and ever. Write what’s missing. I guarantee you, someone else is looking for it too. #YA #ownvoices

Random #MSWL I’m putting out into the universe: I would love a manuscript that tackles the disappearances of Native American girls and women, a la the movie Wind River. YA or Adult, #ownvoices. Ok universe...let’s make it happen. 🤞🏽

#MSWL Two dancers who find friendship within the competitions and high stakes, and how they survive it all together and come out stronger. pic.twitter.com/bmF314balA#MSWL FULL BLOWN TRIBAL FANTASY with Native American influences or Native American mythology/stories. Make it dark, brutal, and heartbreakingly realistic, especially if it's #ownvoices. I want to be educated here.

Inspired by #VeteransDay I'm hoping someone starts writing a military SF in the vein of Old Man's War/Forever War about our current culture of warfare. So much has changed since 1974 and 2005. What is war like now? #MSWLPeople of color represent 40% of active duty military and women make up 15%. What stories do you have to write? I want to read them. #MSWL #ownvoices

Romance publishing has a major diversity problem, according to new report ew.com/books/2017/10/… via @ewI'm always looking for #ownvoices #YA with a fun romantic subplot. #MSWL

And in honor of #MSWL day, I have to revisit this confession: twitter.com/LaurenAbramo/s…Remembered another #MSWL: #ownvoices MG/YA/adult w/ disabled MCs, including novels where disability isn't the focus, esp intersectional.
