The “Something Else” vote that helped turn Arizona blue. So many grassroots organizers mobilized the Navajo vote in Arizona. Here is Allie Young leading folks to the polls on horseback as our polling locations can be miles away from homes pic.twitter.com/sKWOBZid4iagents, consider this HIGH on my #MSWL:

Today in pulp: a woman with great hair is fleeing a gothic house. Why?Well this is a signal to the reader: they hold in their hands one of ‘those’ books – not a historical romance or a ghost story, but a modern gothic romance.

Excellent thread and my #mswl to a T.

Thinking about how chop suey by System of a Down was regularly played in our pep rallies in high school but we weren’t allowed to have water bottles in class bc they thought it would be vodkaThis is dated bc I’m 32. But give me this vibe in YA #mswl please

I've been thinking about something, post-election. I know someone who voted for @realdonaldtrump. Nice guy. Friendly. Engaging. And I was legit confused—why did this guy vote for Trump? He's a decent guy. And I started thinking about little things. [1]There was a bestselling book in 2005 titled the Sociopath Next Door. We need that version of the Racist Next Door not only to recognize the signs but also what's the best way to deal with them. #MSWL

"Sci-fi & fantasy novels. I love them. I read a ton of them. But they have to be accessible.What does that mean? It means that readers who don't traditionally pick up much sci-fi/fantasy, can pick up one of these novels & enjoy it." @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

My head is swirling around random thoughts today, but you know what I’d love to see in my inbox???? A sarcastic and wonderful holiday book: nonfiction—cooking book or DIY decorations and their meanings (love learning about traditions) or fiction—YA rom-com. #MSWL

So we can expect a horror film in the next couple of years called Pollstergeist, right? #mswl

Though I’ve made an effort to change that over the last several years, I can’t buy what isn’t being published. I hope after reading this column, you’ll join me in asking publishers for more cookbooks from more diverse places, written by the people from those places.On the same wavelength--give me a narrative that ties food with memoir. Or! A novel! That ties food! With story! More like Mistress of Spices, The Particular Sadness... Pardon the pun, but I'm ravenous #MSWL
