Gender-flipped contemporary Cinderella retelling, except I want “Cin” to be damaged, the bad boy, who needs rescuing in true enemies-to-lovers fashion by his “princess.” Make him sympathetic & redeemable at first. Make us only really like him as the plot develops. #MSWL

Ummm ditto. I want these things. #mswl

My #A #MSWL page is live! Agents, send me your BIPOC myth-retellings--your dark, lyrical novels that dip into fantasy--your REBECCA-esque gothic fiction--your quirky, voicey nonfic. Make me hungry, teach me something, whisk me away: bit.ly/2Udh4Is📚

Is there a MG/YA retelling of My Fair Lady out there? #mswl

“Did you elevate the Jane Austen retelling? Plots with new twists, takes, and contemporary relevance are the stories I want to see.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

But also hear me out: “sweet witchy cottagecore” retelling of Hansel & Gretel about found family and who society casts off. #mswl

all this Satan talk has reminded me that I'd LOVE a re-telling of Paradise Lost #MSWL

🤩 This week, #MeetAPL starts with the newest addition to the APL team, @foldandgathers!

Selena is the star behind the scenes at @pandelectures. For her #MSWL, she is looking for dark, strange retellings that break genres. 👀 Selena will be open to queries in May!

for REAL #mswl

I’ve been reminded how much I love Anastasia retellings so just....putting that general vibe out in the world 👀👀 #mswl

On my #MSWL retellings of Biblical parables and stories from BIPOC perspectives/set in BIPOC cultural contexts.

Mainlined all of Lupin last night & this afternoon, and it is SO EXTREMELY MY SHIT! A kind-of retelling where the source material exists in-universe and the characters are consciously riffing on it? Meta af, sign me up. Also an eternal #mswl

5) Savvy, inventive retellings, from Baba Yaga to the Thousand and One Nights to Oscar Wilde, and beyond

Literary or fairytale #retellings – but they have to really stand out and bring something new. Bonus for more under-the-radar or lesser-told tales or mashups. #MSWL

And honestly, you all, I’m DYING for the next retelling of ALICE’S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND, so just keep that in mind.

Native/indigenous mythology retellings! I would LOVE to see mythologies from tribes in my own area in particular (PNW born and raised!)

OKAY HERE WE GO:

f/f Hades and Persephone retelling! As with ALL retellings, keep it subtle!! But UGH THAT PAIRING I WANT IT AND I WANT IT QUEER

I'm mesmerized by this. And it feels like there is a good book concept/retelling hidden in one of these renderings. Authors, go! #MSWL
