This looks INCREDIBLE! #MSWL
Sajni Patel’s A DROP OF VENOM, pitched as a feminist reimagining of Medusa’s origins, inspired by Indian lore, which follows a young Serpent Queen’s rise to power and the Slayer sent to kill her, questioning what it truly means to be a "monster."

Hi #SFFpit my plan is to pop in and out of the feed today. If I give your pitch a like, I’ll provide instructions in the replies. If I miss your pitch and you think we’d be a match, I’m open to queries. Links to my QM and #mswl in my bio. Shoot your shot. 💜🚀

When the #MSWL hits you upside the head and you have to shout it out.

Finished WHEN WOMEN WERE DRAGONS--loved--and this cover copy is everything #MSWL "[Title] exposes a world that wants to keep women small--and examines what happens when they rise en masse and take up the space they deserve" -- more of this please!

Hey writers! I won’t be able to participate in #SFFpit for long today, but I’m always on the lookout for engaging SFF in the YA and MG spheres.

Here are some specific wish list items and how to reach me: 1/4

-character-driven YA sci-fi, especially if it explores a theme such as our relationship to technology or what it means to be human
-YA sci-fi blended with any other genre—sci-fi horror, sci-fi fantasy (I’d die for a YA Gideon the Ninth!), sci-fi mystery/thriller, etc.

You can see my full Manuscript Wishlist here! I won't take anything animal-related off of it since this is by no means a permanent request and I would never say no to a *perfect* animal fit, but it's otherwise accurate 🙂:

I love me some animal books! You may have noticed quite a few in my announcements recently (and will notice more 👀). So excited as I am about them, for now I'm hoping to see some more human-centered submissions to rebalance my list! #MSWL
