I recently finished a novel set in the world of sports. Any tips for finding agents who’d be interested in sports fiction?Oh gosh, aside from doing a search for #MSWL , I’m not sure. I’m actively searching for (preferably) a high-level gymnast or diver who is forced to give up their sport due to extenuating circumstances and how they cope. But I’d be open to other sports.

#WritingCommunity I'm still closed to queries but will reopen in early May. Until then, feel free to take a look at my #MSWL and edit-edit-edit those manuscripts! The majority of my passes are NOT due to a bad concept but writing that still needs work.

I write seasoned romance. My characters are over 30… most are over 40. If that’s old lady romance… ok. There is an audience. I haven’t been in my 20s in 20 years. I want to read people who are my age.I definitely want this type of romance in my inbox the next time I open for submissions. #MSWL

I would love a sports romance in the vein of Jason and Kylie Kelce’s origin story. Make him a teddy bear like Jason and give him a playboy brother like Travis for a possible book 2. Bonus points if she’s a pro athlete, too.

Since I’m opened to queries, I’ll throw out something I’m interested in getting that’s not on my #MSWL : “accessible” fantasy like THE FOURTH WING!
Give me dragons or gryphons or other mythical creatures in a GROUNDED world that DOES NOT need a lot of world building.

Though I'm not open to queries YET, I plan to open again soon and have updated my #MSWL.
So polish off your manuscripts and add me to your list of agents to query. While I don't have an exact date, I'm thinking Aug/Sep.

To authors paying attention to #MSWL, here's my shoutout to MAKE SURE YOU VISIT THE AGENT'S WEBSITE & FOLLOW THEIR SUB REQUESTS TO THE LETTER!
For myself, I NEVER accept queries via email, so if you email me w/a query, it will always get deleted without reading or responding.

I'm still closed until about April. BUT...I'll reopen for about 1 week only & will give advance notice here. I'll be looking for ONLY HISTORICAL ROMANCE (Regency, preferred) & YA Mystery/Thriller. Strong desire for BIPOC & LGBTQ authors/stories. So get those queries ready!

Has someone written a novelization of this yet? If not, please write it for me! #mswl washingtonpost.com/history/2019/0…Oh wow! I would read this in either fiction or narrative nonfiction. An epistolary format in fiction should be FABULOUS!!! #MSWL.
Note: I'm closed to queries, but if you have this EXACT thing, I would read it.
