Hi everyone! I've reopened to queries for the first time in FOREVER. Very excited to start seeing everyone's work again. I'll be focusing most on PB, MG, YA, NA, and commercial adult fiction in multiple genres. For more, visit my MSWL page: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/hi...
Is this the sequel to Manos, Hands of Fate?
Dark feminist noir fantasy poster featuring a scarred armored vigilante standing in a flooded, post-apocalyptic tunnel, gripping a flaming machete. A glowing sigil burns on her chest and along her arm, suggesting myth-tech power. Title reads SCARELLA: THE MACHETE MARAUDERESS with the tagline: “Some things don’t just break you. They remake you.”
They call her SCARella. She’s the only one who gives a damn about post-Collapse Manhattan’s disappearing girls.
JESSICA JONES × ARCANE
Some things don’t just break you. They remake you. 🔥

Strong writing doesn't mean more words. Often, less is more. See how less can make a bigger impact.

⏳ Ticking clocks aren’t just for hidden explosives—they’re how you make a story feel like time is of the essence.
Whether it’s a breakup ultimatum, a big game, or the last summer before everything changes, urgency drives momentum in almost every genre.

Setting the scene doesn't mean naming every single thing in the room.
It also doesn't require describing what every person in that room is wearing... unless they're furries. Then it's always helpful to get a visual.

Many of the costumes worn by the extras in #Sinners were originally made for Marvel’s #Blade film
• ‘Blade’ was at one point going to take place in the past
• Marvel sold all the costumes to the ‘Sinners’ production team

Are you dealing with a mid-book slump? It's important to know--and fix--BEFORE you query.

Your writing can be brilliant, but that's not all that's required to carry your story. A strong premise is about more than just a cool idea.

always write your ideas down. it's easy to write them off as not having depth or not being enough for a full blown story, HOWEVER it might turn into that someday. the novel I'm about to finish was a vague ass idea I had 5 years ago. sometimes it just takes time for all the pieces to fall into place
I don't even like beer and that looks good, lol.

Please, gamedevs, writers, and creatives of all kinds
If you're going to have "punk" in the name/description of your art/media/game/whatever, please actually have it *be* punk in some way
If it's not challenging the status quo in some way it's just sparkling speculative fiction
Happy Birthday to Sheila Hynde aka Fay Fife, singer and founding member of punk rock band The Rezillos and post-punk band The Revillos, born on this day in 1954, Dunfermline, Scotland

Comic page of Berlin Germany Panel 1: As you can see, it's very pretty here, which is one of the reasons why I love living in Berlin... the buildings range in age and it has a really, um, historical feeling. Panel 2: Sounds the'same as London, fer reasons like those. S'a wonder y'dinnae stay. Panel 3: Oh, sorry, I can't! Understand! You! Sweetie! Maybe if you speak slower? Panel 4: Tha mi diabhlaidh coma dheth! See, now you're just making it worse. Geh zum teufel! Now you're just trying to confuse me. Panel 5: Why don't we take one of these buses the rest of the way to the tower? That could be fuuun! Panel 6: But then you'll miss sights like this! Panel 7: In that case - what's this one represent Sammy? Panel 8: Moving on! If we want to get there before lunch, we'd better keep going.
Comic page on the stage in front of a huge crowd
Comic page in front of the Eiffel Tower Panel 1: Who cares if we're running last? We have almost a whole hour til they supposedly close. Besides, they'll keep the kitchens open for us, right Colbie? Panel 2: It's okay, we'll just... choose what we're ordering quickly and uh, smaller portions, so it all cooks faster. Panel 3: What does that matter? They'll keep the kitchens open if you pay them to keep them open. You really forget how far money can go? Are you not a Hackett? Panel 4: What the fuck are these prices? I know! Panel 5: How in the hell are we expected to pay for this? Who knows? Panel 6: What are we going to order? I don't know!
