I love this podcast episode with @HeatherCashman. You likely know her from PitchWars. Now, hear her talk about writing, agenting, and her view from both sides of the desk.

Recently started listening to Lucinda Riley's Seven Sisters series in audio, so am naturally updating my #MSWL to ask for big, emotional, multigenerational, historical/dual timeline stories with a strong thread of history/art/astrology or similar:

Mary C. Moore @Mary_C_Moore
Ugh. Down with a nasty cold. Should I binge Shetland or Death in Paradise while I leak out of every hole in my face? pic.twitter.com/rPmNaGOgOhOn that note, send me all the atmospheric setting detective stories you got #MSWL (to be read when I stop said leaking).

Another Monday, Another #MSWL! Liza would love to get a book (either fiction or nonfiction) about Japan, in the vein of AUTUMN LIGHT by Pico Iyer.

“I’d love to read some vibrant, Broadway/West End musical fiction. Give me glamour and behind-the-scenes action. Interesting, dramatic, but contemporary and upmarket.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

I'm interested in a novel that explores the complexities of surrogacy—how the possibility arises, how the decision is made, how it affects relationships, why someone would choose to carry the pregnancy, etc. #MSWL

Oh my. 💕💕💕 #mswl
Someone has to make this a children's book so they, the act, and the man who touched them so, can't be forgotten and can continue to influence our children. The initial trip was awesome... now a return, though? Wow. Just wow.
...such beautiful creations.

Oh my. 💕💕💕 #mswl (...or a sales page the moment I can put this needed PB/MG on my child's shelf, if someone else gets it done first.)
