Yβall. I just finished KT client @JamiePacton βs THE VERMILLION EMPORIUM this past weekend and THIS is 100% my type of fantasy. Please, when I reopen to queries, send me projects with this vibe, this whimsy, this type of romance! β¨πβ¨#MSWL

Beyond that, some general things I gravitate towards when reading: unreliable narrators, strong sense of place, atmosphere, lush settings (in fantasy AND contemporary/realistic fiction), strong emotional resonance, twists, surprises, literary/lyrical writing. #MSWL
