In general, right now I'm craving straightforward structures that allow for Big Feelings - but that doesn't mean I won't fall for a brilliantly executed twister. Love a reveal that makes me yell! #mswl

On my #MSWL: I like funny and dark at the same time. If you have a HOT PNR or UF with an HEA or HFN that twists a trope, send it. Bonus points if it's 75K or under. QueryManager.com/LisaGreenQueri…

So now that you have some concepts, let's talk books I have loved that I am #MSWL for writing comps/voice combs/vibeness

If you are writing a YA contemporary romance, the vibe I seem to hit best is this for #MSWL *Some of my favorite books are not yet published, but if you have read @keliswrites then she is in this group too.

Okay it's #MSWL time! Let's talk about some things I have been wanting/needing to add to my list.

First up has probably got to be my 2020 Jessica Fletcher cozy murder mystery YA book. Think Cher Horowitz vibe meets Jessica Fletcher all "I can catch a murderer if I want to" #MSWL #YA
