@kuangrf she's been vampire hunting for decades, and now these jiliguala youth think they know what they're about, but they do not, and all unburied things cause trouble for the living. pic.twitter.com/A4HHadNsWemostly this entire thread that is rapidly getting out of hand with publisher duels & puppies but also a genuine #mswl for the general concept of an old school auntie vampire hunter—if we can have 25 van helsing adaptations we can have 25 of this!

#mswl 2019: YA Paranormal: I want a big vampire or werewolf book or paranormal series that feels new and different and unlike what we've seen before. And YA SFF unlike anything we've seen before. (5/13)

the fact there isn't a book about elegant, dangerous desi fae or vampires when we have this picture of deepika and ranveer as inspiration offends me on a spiritual level pic.twitter.com/WuCyzqnOEZ#MSWL!!! @tashadrinkstea knows what I like. 😂

Wasn’t planning to #mswl yet but since the queries are in full force: IF you’re sending me vampires, think more Damon Salvatore and less Edward Cullen. Cough... unless your Damon is falling in love with your Edward. Send it my way so I can send it to @thedaysbetween. That is all.

All this chatter about a vampire (and werewolf) comeback. I have thoughts...I like my supernatural, human-but-not characters. But I’d love some new takes—not the resurrecting of classics that worked the last time around. Let’s see new perspectives get a bite at that apple.
Okay, writers! THIS is what we mean when we say we're open to creatures with a new twist. New styles and storylines of vamps? I'm down for that #MSWL

Yeah this whole thread is #mswl. I'm trying to think about arranged marriages/dates in a vampire family. The church boys my mom tried to throw at me...vampire mama would be uber-meddlesome.

Can you imagine an unfortunate young (born after 1945) Chinese vampire bringing home a Japanese boyfriend when the vast majority of her family lived through World War II? Now, that's a teen vampire romance I'd want to read!I would like this as well!!!!!! #mswl

On the flip side—where were the vampire clans w/ gossip grapevines populated by nosy aunties who’ve been around for centuries and hold the pettiest grudges?“Aiya, remember what Ah Guan said about your aunt at that party in 1825? Don’t even THINK about talking to her daughter!”
TALK ABOUT A #MSWL!!!

I still really want to see more vampire romances in my inbox. And not just your standard Lestat type—I want fresh, unusual perspectives and plots that make me sit up and take notice. #MSWL

Ask @ryandouglassw, @KatyaDeBecerra, @LizParkerWrites and @2furiosa - I like my YA dark. Horror, dark fantasy, paranormal, ghosts, vampires, werewolves, spirits. Scare me and you’ll win my heart. #MSWL MG, YA, and Adult.

Other things I'm looking for? Vampires. Witches. Monster children. Found families. Female friendships. Theater kids and young geeks. #MSWL

I'm looking for contemporary fantasies like UNDEAD GIRL GANG or WICKED LIKE A WILDFIRE. Witches and vampires and magic and more. But most of all vibrant characters, particularly girls who aren't afraid to be messy. #MSWL

I made the mistake of starting The Vampire Diaries on Netflix (it's my first time watching the series) and now all I can think about is vampire lore. I am ready for a vampire resurgence.To be more specific when it comes to books, my Young Adult vampire-themed #MSWL would look something like this: new twists on classic tropes; more interested in a badass character than "vamp with a soul"; the Pink Ladies or T-Birds... but vampires!

I've seen at least a dozen tweets saying vampires are making a comeback, so send me your old-school ones! They should be creepy, weird, non-Western, and/or decaying. Anything as long as they're not remotely sexy. #MSWLA long overdue clarification to this #MSWL: in the kind of vampire story I'm looking for, the vampire *cannot* be the hero/MC.

Thesis: the reason Vampires haven’t made a reappearance in YA since Twilight is because the category sanitized them and removed the nuanced queerness that was the hallmark of vampire novels. And for vampires to rise again they will have to be queer.Send. This. To. Me. #MSWL
