I want to see more asexual, demisexual, gray ace, aromatic, and all the ace spectrum rep. More platonic relationships. Best friend romances. No sex, just cuddle romcoms. There just isn't enough. #MSWL

thinking of a romcom where dev patel's a snobby city journalist, and lana condor's a romance novellist who also writes thrillers under a different pen name. he puts the romance novel on his "worst of" list and the thriller under "best", not knowing they're by the same person– pic.twitter.com/Yq99CI5fTI

I want this romcom so much. #mswl

I’d sell my soul for a horror rom com with the vibes of Lazlo and Nadja #MSWL pic.twitter.com/VlxaBAQijL

Tara Gilbert ✨ Literary Agent @Literary_Tara

Hello, hello #amquerying! I know I've been closed to queries for quite some time, but here is your chance to pitch me! I'll be participating in the @SavvyAuthors Sweetheart Pitchfest this week! Starting Wednesday you can pitch me all your MSs that have romance in them! #MSWL

I'm really interested in RomComs right now. I have no rom-com authors on my lineup, and I've been eagerly looking for them. Other than than that, you can check out my #mswl here...taragilbert.com/mswl/

📢Announcement!📢
I'm closing to queries November 1st and won't reopen until the new year! I recently signed some awesome authors and I'm going to focus on them. However, I'm still searching for a couple more clients to meet a gap in my current list. (See #mswl thread below.)

Hey #mswl! I'm closing tomorrow and would love more queries before I do. Still looking for a good MG and a romcom!

· 18 Oct 2020

Before I close to queries, I really need ALL THE QUEER ROMROMS! All of them. Send to me! I'm desperate to sign a queer romance author who loves romcoms and also Emotions. Lots of feels. 🙏 #MSWL

I would love to RomComs of all kinds and all ages! Bonus points for inclusive and diverse stories from authors of underrepresented communities. #MSWL

My #3 #mswl I cannot stress enough--I need YA and adult RomComs. Super funny, super cute, super smart, and full of emotion like RWRB. I really need a David & Patrick (from Schitt's Creek) romance. #romancelandia where you at?

It's been brought to my attention in a sort of roundabout way that people aren't interested in queer books, esp QPoC books, that don't center trauma.

Can y'all do me a favor & RT this if you'd love to read some books about queer people with little to no trauma in them?

Hell yes! I would love a QPOC RomCom! Give me all the happy queer and POC stories please. #mswl

I'd love a romcom about a tarot reader or psychic or similar. #MSWL

I really, really, want a queer romcom. If you have queried me or plan to, please ping me here so I know. #mswl.

· 23 May 2020

I'd love to see LGBTQ+ YA/NA romcoms in my query box. LEAH ON THE OFFBEAT or something like RWRB! I want to laugh, cry, and fall in love. Like anything with the same relationship as David and Patrick. 😍😍😍 #mswl

· 10 Apr 2020

Also, I think I would be willing to accept high fantasy if it were a RomCom. The closest thing I can think to comp to this is Princess Bride. We need more. #romancelandia? #MSWL

· 5 Mar 2020

Some things I am looking for:
- YA RomCom (or adult) with a diverse cast and smart topics.
- MG/YA nonfiction
- LGBTQ+ nonfiction
- Graphic novels in pretty much anything on my wishlist
- #LGBTQIA+ characters in everything.
- Body diversity
- Underrepresented voices
#MSWL

Can I have like a YA Romcom set in a medieval fantasy world? Maybe a GN of this? #MSWL

· 17 Jan 2020

Hi #amquerying, I have an urgent #mswl that needs to be addressed...
😉
I am seriously lacking anything and everything in the contemporary fiction space. Romance, Realistic (nonissue books), WF, RomCom, high concept book! I need them in MG, YA, and Adult categories.

· 17 Nov 2019

A couple things I REALLY want to read right now.

Historical YA with no magic, especially if its gothic/southern gothic.

Romantic Comedies, but with a new twist or perspective. Example: diverse backgrounds, gender-bending, or a retelling of Shakespeare/fairtales/myths. #mswl
