Jordan Ifueko says REDEMPTOR available NOW @jifueko
For all the progress we've made in YA fantasy female representation, we can't seem to get over the misogynistic trend of protagonists having to disdain stereotypically feminine things in order to be "Protagonist Material."Give me high fantasy Elle Woods, please.
GIVE ME HIGH FANTASY ELLE WOODS PLEASE #mswl

The top three things I'd love to see more of in my query inbox, in no particular order 📚 #MSWL
1. Romance of any subgenre, especially if it's queer or polyamorous
2. Contemporary fantasy with unique magic systems and lore
3. Gothic horror, particularly from marginalized voices

The most unrealistic part of "Ginny and Georgia" and "Maid" is that everyone does not immediately lose their minds over Raymond Ablack. give me a rom-com with this man ASAP. let me WRITE a rom-com with that man ASAP. pic.twitter.com/tkWAW0xxAx#MSWL. Give me a hot brown cafe owner love interest; soft eyes, impeccable hair and beard nonnegotiable ty 😍

C.G. Drews @PaperFury
am just a reader, sitting here asking for more books about disaster friend groups where they're all a bit feral and all a bit in love, someone's having a breakdown, and there is a supernatural horror in the background that they're absolutely going to mess withThis is forever on my #MSWL. The more feral, the better.

I feel like I'm just going to constantly retweet this until I find what I'm looking for in historical fiction. Even open to a gothic horror novel with BIPOC set in the 18th and 19th centuries. #MSWL twitter.com/TiffanyDiahann…I would also take a gothic horror like this #MSWL

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
