Just look at these two! This scene broke me, completely. pic.twitter.com/vnuSuoIk8VSeriously y’all I’m a romantic and I know I rant and rave about thrillers and horrors on here. But I’m absolute shit at dating and the only romance I’m getting is in books. So send me happy queer ones, please! #mswl

#MSWL MG with evil geniuses à la Artemis Fowl. Like, it’s great when kids save the world, but I’d love to see them trying to take over the world, too.
But in a way that makes me root for the main character. I want to *want* them to succeed, no matter their goal.

It’s #feelgoodfriday again! This story about how a woman was reunited with her own copy of her fave childhood book, THE SECRET GARDEN, a fave of mine too, in a museum is just the kind of bookish story I love to read about! #mswl #nationalfamilyliteracyday goodnewsnetwork.org/woman-reunited…

It's the final countdown, #WritingCommunity! I'll be closed to queries starting next week, so get them in now! Otherwise I'll look forward to reading in 2020. twitter.com/BookySaul/stat…#MSWL is always adult fiction (particularly women's, mysteries, thrillers, historical, and select literary) that is doing something new. Underexplored settings, unusual characters, turning tropes on their head - gimme!

"Doppelgangers in dramatic women's fiction. Send me something interesting, give me characters with depth, with something to lose, and with something to fight for. Send me something I've never seen before." @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Give me that horrible, claustrophobic feeling of not being able to trust the people closest to you. Give me a story where the protagonist has to betray the people they love because they’re not sure if the people they love can be trusted #MSWL

Contemporary horror set in NYC. Gimmie haunted apartments, office buildings, subways (can you imagine 😱)! #MSWL

I want something like The Descent—female-centric, claustrophobic as hell, and full of creepy monsters #MSWL

Hi I just discovered Ann Pratt - can someone please write a Caribbean gothic novel about her? #MSWL

I’m from Florida so give me some spooky swamps. Something creeping beneath the water, the deafening sound of insects, that humid heat that makes it hard to breathe....#MSWL

I love that point where an author has made things very obvious to the reader about what will be a big revelation but the MC very believably hasn’t figured it out yet and you are just PAWING through pages until you get to where it all clicks.cr: KILLING NOVEMBER
SAME! #mswl

I want smart horror protagonists. I’m tired of watching protagonists make stupid decisions that get them killed. It’s so much scarier when you do everything right, and bad stuff still happens to you! #MSWL
