I've been seeing a lot of fantasy in queries and I'd love contemporary in the YA & Adult space! Also, looking for more Women's Fiction, Domestic Suspense (think Dark Places), and Romance! Though less rom-com and more steamy - really, anything that's not too sweet! #mswl

Finding myself really craving Adult Romantic Suspense #mswl

I just really want some cerebral, fucked up horror shit that really takes characters through the ringer with confronting who they are when faced with fuckshit. Specifically searching for this in the Adult space, but YA too! #mswl

The song drinking games by Silver Sphere is exactly the kind of vibe I want in queer friendships and queer romances in YA and queer Adult romance #mswl (Can yβall tell by now that I want to read stories about βmisfitβ friend groups????!??)

I am DYING for a second chance romance in YA or Adult. Exes or distanced lovers who never quite fit right when they were first together, whatever the reason! I love being able to see an old relationship with opened eyes as the new one grows. #mswl

Urban Legend is one of my favorite movies from childhood. I burned the shit out of our VHS. I would love an Urban Legend + The Craft YA or Adult Horror or Spec Fic. Make sure to queer it up, too! #mswl

This seems as good a time as any to ask for your Adult or YA f/f romances with a Princess Bubblegum/ Marceline-esque dynamic #MSWL pic.twitter.com/tRy9xDtYanGosh, yes, please. Honestly, I, please consider me for a Bubbleline f/f #mswl

And another #mswl in the thriller space: I am horribly obsessed with true crime about cults, and family secrets that lead to deadly outcomes, and wild stuff like this. In Adult, especially, and in YA!Adding to the #mswl because I think I botched a previous ask in this thread! I LOVE small town stories, (ESPECIALLY Adult romance!!) I just want them diverse and from a different voice! I also think of suburbs and small towns as completely different settings, sorry for confusion!

Before I forget! I love historical romance, historical fantasies, alternate historical fantasies etc etc in YA and Adult. Iβd LOVE an f/f in a period story! Like duchess debauchery or some shit. With WOC!!! Bc racism is a recent phenomenon. #mswl

In YA/Adult fantasy, idgaf about saving the world, but a MC using the backdrop of a good vs evil world conflict to get shit done in pursuit of selfish goals? YES #mswl

#MSWL day: I'd love to see more F/F in my inbox. give me your adult WILDER GIRLS, your righthand women fiercely defending their gfs, the claustrophobic intimacy of friendship where you might just take a bite out of each other, your SF/F Elena Ferrante, your swordswomen in love.WILDER GIRLS took body horror and claustrophobia to a whole βnother level AND I WANT MORE OF IT!! #mswl

Not a sports book, but main characters and/or love interests who play sports. Sports aren't queer, per se, but queer folks who play sports are hot and we NEED MORE IN YA #mswl Look, ultimate frisbee is GAY AS HELL - where's the book with that love interest?Just to be clear: this includes my wants for Adult romance too! #mswl

I always forget to advertise this, but I AM on the look out for SFF in YA and Adult! I like grounded sci-fis like PREY OF GODS and THE LUMINOUS DEAD. Fantasy like Molly Tanzer. #mswl

A #mswl CRAVING for horror in YA and Adult. I love haunting, meaty narratives like SAWKILL GIRLS, sleepy and dreamy lore like THE WICKED DEEP, the creepy witchy nightmare of #MarianneNetflix. If it has a romance element, MAKE IT GAY. #mswl

I am dying for romances in YA & Adult. Queer preferred. Commercial, high stakes concepts with a fun angle. Interracial couples w/non-white partners. Light-hearted but not cutesy. 2011 Tumblr-angst. #mswl
