#MSWL YA or MG PoC Lara Croft / Indiana Jones type character (any gender!) that steals artifacts in order to return them to their cultures of origin 😌I’d love a project like this, especially if it has strong anthropology themes! #MSWL

It is more radical to publish Black joy than it is to publish Black trauma, pass it on.Top of my wish list for manuscript acquisitions (and freelance jobs) are romantic comedies by #ownvoices authors featuring BIPOC protagonists who make each other laugh.

Like many of us in these strange times, I’ve been taking comfort in books. And it’s made me think of the kinds of stories I want to champion.Most of this won’t be a surprise, but for what it’s worth, here’s my current #MSWL:
YOUNG ADULT
- high-concept, darkly comic modern fables with literary writing and crossover appeal like THE PISCES or GEEK LOVE
- eerie and atmospheric fantasies inspired by non-Western mythology
- sweet contemporary rom-coms about QPOC main characters

Are there any SFF stories/novels about a pandemic that mostly kills white people (e.g. the reverse of the one we're living now) & its effects on society? If not, & a BIPOC writer wants to write it for YA: #MSWL

I ALWAYS forget to mention this, so thanks @samanthashnh for jogging the noggin!
I would LOVE women’s fiction featuring early 20s-early 20s womyn who are POC and queer POC! Particularly, black womyn. Something fresh & high-concept! #mswl

It’s another social-distancing Saturday so I’ve decided to do a thread on some things I’d like to see in my inbox because...why not? Buckle up guys, here comes my #mswlDuring this whole time, I’ve been catching up on a ton of K-Drama and I. Am. Obsessed with opposites-attract such as CLoY, My Secret Romance, and Oh My Ghost. I’d love to see something like these featuring POC in my inbox bc I’m not letting go of these feels. #mswl
