I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Arab experiences are vast and are not limited to war, civil conflict, and oppression. We’re not a one-size-fits all people and neither are our stories. I want to see your expansive, joyful, funny, and romantic Arab stories #mswl

I’m looking for an eco-dystopian thriller set in the near future, with a strong female lead and an original, compelling plot. Any ideas out there? #MSWL #literaryagency #literaryagent

Watching my longstanding crush Djokovic in the French Open semifinals, I can't help but wish for a romance set in the world of professional tennis to land in my inbox one day....#MSWL

Please feel free to query me with anything on my broader wishlist, within SFF and romance for YA, NA and Adult.

But these are the books that I will be especially excited by right now, based on what I am missing in my list and/or what makes me clap my hands with glee!

I can't wait to dive back in!

AND FINALLY

8) College-based stories (especially romance, but possibly fantasy too)

9) Romances feat. ace, demi, & trans characters. I always like any flavor of queer, but right now those feel the most urgent stories for me to get into the world.

Think of it like the middle finger to JK.

6) 5) Urban Fantasy - our world plus magic or magic creatures (the vampire nextdoor, magical tattoos, alt. history w/ magic)

7) Magic schools, but for the parents and teachers rather than the kids (think The Incadescent or Grimmoire Grammar School Parent Teacher Association)

3) Artemis Fowl, but for adults

4) Dungeons & Dragons inspired fantasy that has the adventure and whimsy and puzzles, and most importantly the absolute dumb-fuckery of any good D&D game

5) Stories that read like fanfic (complimentary)

1) African and/or Caribbean inspired, anti-colonial fantasy (from someone of that background or ancestry)

2) A REALLY GOOD adventure - think Indiana Jones, Clive Cussler, Pirates of the Caribbean

Bonus points for swashbuckling and impossible escapes, but consistent rules/magic

Most of my wishlist remains perennially true, but I wanted to pull out some things I'm especially excited to see right now:

"For rom coms, my taste veers towards genre-blends, i.e. a rom com that's also a family saga or a romcom com that's also a thriller. DIAL A FOR AUNTIES by Jesse Q. Sutanto is a great example and my all-time favorite rom com."

I’m open to queries through the 7th!

I am on the hunt for MG and YA mysteries/thrillers, gothic horror, and intricate, inventive fantasy!

I’m especially looking for stories from BIPOC and queer writers.
