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

In celebration of Halloween, I’m gonna be posting another #MSWL thread, since I’m dying for more spooky things in my inbox!
General info: I’m not currently accepting unagented submissions. My priority is adult horror for @TorNightfire, but I love YA horror too 👻

It's hard to toot the horn, but it's been a difficult year, so I'm going to toot it today. I woke up this morning to see I'm #1 in MG deals on Publishers Marketplace. Grateful thanks to all the wonderful authors who made it happen. Send me your MG! #MSWL

And as a reminder to anyone who sees this. There is the #MSWL page, which is more general about my interests, and then there are #MSWL tweets. I am only looking for stories that fall under the tweets (and I ask that you share the specific tweet in your query).

There are so many ways to go with this. I'd curious to see a story where this tech is commonly used. Rarely (& clandestinely) used. What we as a society & tech-wise do to combat it. What someone would do if their entire likeness &words were stolen/manipulated this way. #MSWLAs always, my tastes run character-driven with cool plot elements and a fast pace...so the ideal story for me would follow one (or a couple) POVs in this world with an overarching plot that can either be directly related or somehow just tangentially affected by this tech. #MSWL

I've heard of tech like this that could easily be used by anyone representing living people AND voice replications. It's the tech with implications I think I'm most concerned about. That said, I think that fear makes it ripe for SFF mining so...this is a must-see #MSWL for me. twitter.com/Claribel_Orteg…There are so many ways to go with this.

claribel a. ortega pre-order my book, GHOST SQUAD! @Claribel_Ortega
As cool as this is (and as useful as it would be for authors with characters on their covers/character art!) all I can think of is the abuse and propaganda that will come from it 😞 twitter.com/UniverCurious/…I've heard of tech like this that could easily be used by anyone representing living people AND voice replications.

Do Black writers know that everything we create doesn’t have to be about our trauma? I don’t wanna see another get out the hood, police brutality, abusive relationship, segregation, or slavery story. We deal with that shit every day. TF I WANNA WATCH THAT IN MY FREE TIME FORThis is why I keep asking for the stories that feature POC and more specifically black teens and adults in happy situations like falling in love, figuring out who they are, having great friendships because the world is already hard enough for us as it is. #MSWL

My friend’s 7th grader goes to a school where the kids organized for free tampons in the bathroom. The male principle said no because they would “abuse the privilege.” The kids decided to stage a cookie protest. Behold the tampon cookies! pic.twitter.com/jz2KtbhOhSThis is awesome. Totally a #MSWL #PeriodPower

I need you to read these and then I would like to request that someone (@Devas_T comes immediately to mind) write a Mr. T picture biography right now. Done right it could be extraordinary (and don’t tell me it wouldn’t sell like crazy): pic.twitter.com/7JwjTwP8PGYes! YES! #mswl
