My father belongs to a scientific academy that always has exactly 350 members. Someone has to die before new members are admitted. He looked horrified when I told him that was a perfect motive for murder. This is why we need STEAM, not STEM.

• Fresh, complex aduly fantasy! I do not want to see fae, elves, or other commonly-utilized fantasy creatures. Show me characters realizing their world is way, way bigger (maybe magically?) Than they realized. Bring me intense relationships here. Family drama. FANTASY CLOTHES.Ignoring the typo... this is always on my wishlist for adult fantasy!!! Also: women with magic of all ages and stages of life, beautiful&interactive fantasy settings, rich cultural influence, and surprising new applications of magic or fantasy elements. #MSWL 1/
#MSWL I need a book about a little girl who struggles to keep her bonnet on her head as she sleeps...especially if she’s a wild sleeper. The struggle is real.

things to ask yourself at a party:• where are the bookshelves
• where are the exits
• who poisoned the wine
• who wanted the hostess dead and why
• does the killer think they can outwit you, the greatest detective in the world

My fever-addled self also rewatched HEREDITARY today & it reminded me of a #MSWL I’ve mentioned before: horror that deals with grief (in both children’s & adult lit). Horror that’s intertwined with grief. Like HEREDITARY, THE BABADOOK, A MONSTER CALLS. Please & thank you. 🖤

I’ve been getting a lot of YA and MG queries. I don’t want to be rude to you folks, and when they come in, I’ll politely decline, but as a heads up, I’m only looking for adult SF/F in my #mswl
Ashley Herring Blake @ashleyhblake · Feb 22
MG graphic novels are one of my fave comfort reads. I’d love to see a contemporary graphic novel a là ROLLER GIRL, THE NEW KID, BE PREPARED, in my in box! And, you know, make it queer.🤞🏻🏳️🌈 #MSWL

My two cents on YA sci-fi—it works best when the science fiction elements line up with actual teen struggles. Uglies and Divergent are two great examples. Body image? Cliques and belonging? These books use science fiction to speak directly to the unique needs of teensI’m all for YA sci-fi, but totally agree 👇👇👇, so if you can show me how your YA SF aligns to teen struggles, then #MSWL, y’all.

#MSWL:
Take a society whose economy, development, and peace are necessarily and realistically built on a foundation of cruelty and injustice.
Some characters fight to right these wrongs. The fall of the old world order visits immense suffering on other oppressed innocents.
Go.

Whenever I talk about wanting more adult fiction, I get DMs and emails asking for specifics, so... here’s an explanation and a starter pack.
I like genre-blending novels that are character driven, and far more about relationships than world building. #MSWL
Eric Smith @ericsmithrocks · Feb 21
Started watching Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet and... wow, I so would love an adult novel about working in game dev.
I remember adoring You by Austin Grossman, and would just love something a bit more contemporary. #MSWL
