Feeling murdery, as always. Send me your books! Cozies, historical or contemporary mysteries, true crime, psychological suspense, thrillers. I'm open. #MSWL
Literary Agent
Many things put me in the mood for murdery reading, but it's especially true when the weather gets cold. Send me all your murder books! Your contemporaries, your historicals, your cozies, your true crime. #MSWL
Literary Agent
I'm always looking for crime / mystery / thriller subs of all sorts, both contemporary and historical. If you've got a project in the vein of Sherry Thomas, Tana French, Attica Locke, Jane Harper, or Louise Penny, I'd love to see it. #mswl

@wensday95 wants #Historicalfiction with a slight #speculative or #horror bent like Alma Katsu's THE HUNGER or Sarah Perry's THE ESSEX SERPENTBONUS: she also wants contemp mystery/thriller where setting is integral like Jane Harper's books or Attica Locke's BLUEBIRD, BLUEBIRD.
Evergreen #mswl.

I just ran across this book on Goodreads, and it sounds so wonderfully delightful. If you have a contemporary romcom with a fun hook like this and you're looking for an agent, send me a query! #mswl

I'll send out some more in-depth #mswl tweets next week, but in the meantime, two things I'd really love to see more of in my inbox are dual timeline narratives and crime / mystery novels, historical or contemporary. Send 'em!
Literary Agent
Time for some #mswl tweets! Here's a peek at what I'd love to see in my query inbox. Romance: historical--especially diverse historical--rom suspense, and contemp romcom. As a general rule, I'm far more likely to fall for a story that makes me laugh than one that makes me cry.
Literary Agent
Contemporary or historical romance with a hint (or more) of magic. #mswl
Literary Agent
I'd also really love to find a contemporary mystery where the setting is an equally important component of the story. Think Jane Harper's THE DRY. #mswl #amwriting #amquerying
Literary Agent
In contemporary romance, I am much more likely to fall in love with a book that makes me laugh vs one that makes me cry. I'm not a huge fan of billionaires or motorcycle clubs, so those are probably best sent to other agents who love them.

#MSWL: A fun, sports-centered contemporary romance where the heroine, not the hero, is the elite athlete.

Random #MSWL. To celebrate the start of summer, does anybody have a contemporary romance set in the glamping world? Please?

A contemp Gothic romance w/ atmosphere you can almost touch. Take those tropes and turn them on their heads for a modern audience! #mswl 3/3Really looking forward to finding one of these! #mswl

After spending a week on Nantucket, I really want a book set there. Romance, mystery, contemporary, historical, I'm open. #mswl
Literary Agent
A summery, outdoorsy, contemporary romance where the MCs are competing forest rangers, archaeologists, river guides, something. #mswl
Literary Agent
More contemporary romance, please! #MSWL
Literary Agent
A really steamy, sultry, contemporary romance set in the South. Bonus points if there's also suspense. #mswl
