As promised for #MSWL Day! I've been searching for a space book since I got promoted and get very few! I really want to see space opera, space heists, cozy, aliens. If your book is in space I'd love to see it. If you have this please dm for event query link. (No pitch in comments please)

YA Dystopian (with a romantic thread). I'd love to see something different from trials and divisions (a la Hunger Games and Divergent as much as I did love them). I know y'all are a super creative bunch and can't wait to see your new takes on dystopian.

What am I really hunting for though?? #MSWL

Historical!!! I've been on a historical binge in my reading and really hoping for a great fit. (I am open to romantic historical, but would like non-romantic as well)

#mswl ok but hear me out. A League of Their Own but for esports. Where feminism isn't *the plot* and it's a quirky good time. I know it's different from my usual but somebody have that for me? (And of course filled with diversity lol)

I'm just an agent, standing in front of Writers, asking for more space science fiction. #mswl

Chinese dynasties, older African cultures.

Scifi: space operas! And all the punks, steampunk, cyberpunk, scavengerpunk. Oh and aliens.

A note on romance. I do very much appreciate the submissions I've gotten and am reviewing them carefully, I'm just really picky about romance

Took a nap and up late so wanted to do a #mswl post of things I'm missing in my submissions that I didn't realize I needed lol

Historical: Either 70s/Vietnam War/ACROSS THE UNIVERSE vibes, WW1 and 2, even though it's a tough market, and old Historical, like empires,

I'll try to answer questions as they come. This is not an exhaustive list, but pretty good guidelines. Please respect my anti-mswl posted on the websites. Please provide any TW.

I love science fiction that makes me wonder about the world, as well as cozy stories and morally gray characters.
