Happy happy pub day to Ashley Winstead for THIS BOOK WILL BURY ME and Holly James for THE BIG FIX. Two incredible books by two incredible authors. I could not be prouder.

It’s a 5 day beach vacation so I have two new hardcovers, an ebook, and two audiobooks. But is it enough?

Happy Pub Day to two of my authors today! @beabirdsong.bsky.social and @lindsayhameroff.bsky.social, both deliver the laughs for very different audiences.

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

#MSWL ultimately I don’t even know what I don’t know I want. If you wrote brilliant commercial fiction, I want to see it.

like, people say "MSWL" like they say "google it" now; it's a term and function so ubiquitous that I think people forget that it hasn't always existed, that people actually had the idea and created it. the @manuscriptacademy.bsky.social team deserves way more credit than they get on that.

If you find me through #MSWL Day and you’d like to submit: please query me at submissions at Stonesong dot com and include my name in the letter. I’d love to hear from you!

#MSWL: I might as well speak it into the universe— more puzzle books! Puzzle books with a unique spin, whether that’s plot or a new puzzle style or a voice all their own.
February 12, 2025 at 3:52 PM
More #MSWL: dark romance of all sorts. I love how dark romance is pushing boundaries. Would be happy to see it expand even further.
February 12, 2025 at 3:47 PM
Happy #MSWL day! I’d love to see more thrillers in my inbox. All sorts: procedurals, psychological suspense, domestic, espionage, assassin. All commercial thriller, all day.

A completely meaningless landmark but one I did not see in my future when I started in publishing as an assistant 12 years ago

Hard to believe that a year and a half after it's release, Murdle is the #8 book in the US. I hope everyone who bought a copy for Christmas has a wonderful time solving the murders with their loved ones!

Nothing makes me request a query faster than a solid premise and a bad title I know I could help improve
