I want a lifeguard romance. Or maybe a fun friend frolic-y antic summer book centered around this stressful job (in YA or Adult!) #mswl Anyway, I love @bondirescue π

Why do men get all the fun of being dark, broody, and traumatized in Romance? π€ (obvi a v general statement meant to express I want to see dark, broody, traumatized women in my Romance queries!) #mswl

i've said it before, but i'd love to come across more YA with teen characters who aren't planning to go to fancy universities, who are maybe going to attend community college or learn a trade or not even continue school at all. college apps don't consume every kid's life, ya knowThiiiis. College is not the only route kids take after high school. The prevalence can be alienating and honestly limits where we can go with storytelling in contemporary YA #mswl

I love Romance, but I also love all the ways we mess up and/or complicate our lives CHASING it. Also, chasing monogamy is boring me rn. Iβd love to see a QUEER BIPOC coming-of-age/womenβs fiction abt a fun-loving, bighearted dyke whose quest for love leads to selfish chaos. #mswl

Literary Agent
Stoner lesbians who listen to Phoebe Bridgers while they ignore their girlfriends to fuck their shitty best friends. #mswl

Literary Agent
Iβm just a dumb raging thot who wants an Girls Trip Adult novel for queer BIPOC whores who want to have a good time at the expense of their friendship (before reconciling, of course!) #mswl

Query Manager is live again!
Good time as any that I am looking for YA and Adult fiction, with an emphasis on Contemporary, Romance (but not necessarily rom-coms), and Horror! #mswl I want funny, sharp, and dark wit the most :)
A thread of recent faves in next tweet!

A lot of the hyped YA books I see are marketed as βa love letter toβ¦β and thatβs great, but when I was a young adult, I wanted to read books that amplified, examined, validated, & vented my rage. I know those books are out there, but often unhyped.So, suggestions for angry YA?
ughhh ultimate #mswl

Literary Agent
We need more METEOR MAN, ATTACK THE BLOCK, VAMPIRES VS. THE BRONX, SHADOWSHAPER, WINGS OF EBONY stories!!
More hood folks not fucking around with these supernatural/sci-fi creatures! Some real thugs riding for their neighborhood. Street-bred kids defending their block!!! #mswl

Literary Agent
My daily life is centered around being fine as hell in all-black and dodging lesbian drama while throwing ass. Like please, give me characters who are about that life!!!! #mswl
That whole social climbing, marriage aspirations is not my lane, honey.

Literary Agent
All I want in my YA is my stoners, slackers, skateboarders, alt-kids, ravers, taggers, fun loving and reckless teenagers! #mswl

Transplants just donβt talk about cities the way natives do and thatβs the voices I want to see more of in fiction across all genres. #mswl

Happy Friday!Want to let #amquerying folks know that my current #mswl is exclusively (hyperbole!) sapphic, dark, comedic horror feat. BIPOC casts!
Iβm a fan of Scream, Fear Street 1994, Urban Legend (2001), The Descent
Iβm that goofy bitch from the block w/as big mouth!!!
Needed more words π
:
Looking for this in YA and Adult!
If you donβt have horror, my next wish is contemporary womenβs fiction featuring a main character or ensemble cast in the mid-20 - mid-30s. Iβm not married and donβt want kids; I have hangovers and lesbian drama π₯³ #mswl
