I'm slowly catching up on my requested reading and planning to reopen to submission Feb 1st!
I'll put together a little twitter #mswl for what I'm on the hunt for. I know the timing's right because I'm really excited to see new queries! 🥹🥹
Literary Agent
-- ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING -- Love me a ~quirky~ murder mystery that's funny and heartfelt. I'd love to see this across age groups.
Literary Agent
-- TURNING RED -- Give me all the coming of age middle grade novels and graphic novels! The more embarrassing, funny, relatable, the better.
Literary Agent
-- SELLING SUNSET -- I wonder if someone out there has written a thriller/horror about glamorous realtors meeting untimely ends or getting caught up with solving a murder🤔
Literary Agent
-- THE GREAT NORTH -- I'd love to see a novel or book club adult fic about characters out in Alaska or similarly remote landscape. This one I'm genre agnostic on, I'll take humor, horror, thriller, romance, across all age groups (nothing younger than MG).
Literary Agent
-- BRIDGERTON Season 2 -- If every romance I read had the scorching chemistry of Kanthony, I'd die happy. Send me all your quippy, enemies to lovers romance, though not in a historical/regency setting.
Literary Agent
-- OUR FLAG MEANS DEATH -- I'd love a queer take on pirates in the adult upmarket/book club space, in the vein of OUTLAWED but out at sea. I'd also be interested in this for YA or MG graphic novel!

For #amquerying writers here's a quick #MSWL update: I've been consuming a lot of new shows lately that are exploring concepts that I'd love to see more in my queries!-- RANKING OF KINGS -- I'd love to see a middle grade novel (graphic or prose) that explores a kid born into royalty/monarchy that doesn't fit the bill for what a ruler should be or some other setting!

Reading The Chicken Sisters and now all I want is more women's fic or rom-com about rival restaurants, especially if LGBTQ+ #MSWLStill looking for more women's fic like this! #amquerying writers #mswl

Re: period & puberty discourse from #TurningRed, I'm actively looking for middle grade novels that addresses these topics! Give me all the earnest (slightly cringe but still funny) coming of age MGs that grapple with these 'taboo' issues or just include them! #amquerying #mswl

By some miracle, I'm nearly caught up with my queries (not that I'm caught up with my to-read pile!) and I'm really hungry to see some more thriller/suspense/horror in my inbox whether adult or young adult! Also horror/spooky middle grade 👀 #MSWL

I am in the ultimate cozy reading mood with this beautiful 65 degree morning. #amquerying authors, please send me all the adult rom-coms, upmarket/book club, women's fiction! #mswl
Literary Agent
I am on the hunt for more non-fiction on my list such as illustrated or graphic novel self-help/self-care/ guides, cookbooks, crafting books, or graphic novel memoirs. #mswl

#amquerying writers: I'm really in the mood for high concept (i.e. emphasis on plot) romances/women's fic with HEA, especially stories where the romantic interest is perceived to be the obstacle to the protagonist's goals and we get all that delicious tension 😍 #mswl
Literary Agent
I'm really in the mood for an adult rom-com that gives me My Big Fat Greek Wedding (perfection of a movie IMO) vibes. It can be from any cultural background! #MSWL

I am just a girl, standing in front of the internet, begging for a young #YA / upper #MG about a #Latinx girl who has to choose between a quinceañera and a sweet sixteen because Americanization™️ and all the cultural / generational drama that ensues #MSWLDitto!! #MSWL
