YA/Adult Fiction Agent at DMLA. Hobbit degenerate. She/her. I smile a lot/make inappropriate jokes. ππ¦ ALL SIGNS POINT TO YES β¨ Rep: @samanthashnh

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
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

Literary Agent
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!!!

Going to keep tweeting this until I see it!! I really want more YA and Adult Suspense & RomCom submissions from BIPOC writers! #mswlPlease this is also my #mswl Lauren just said it first :)

Literary Agent
Yβall know the drill! I want a character driven coming-of-age contemporary YA centered around a queer BIPOC girl that feels like Sour by Olivia Rodrigo. #mswl

Literary Agent
Going to do a weekly reminder that I want all kinds of queer BIPOC centered HORROR NOVELS PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE SAVE ME FROM MY HORROR-LESS AGENT LIFE βΊοΈ Bonuses if it takes place in non-traditional setting (like houses, asylums, small towns, etc) #mswl

Literary Agent
Or 40 YR Old Virgin but, you guessed it, Black, BIPOC, and queer!!!!! #mswl 21 Jump Street but??? Black, BIPOC, queer?!?!!!??!?!? !WHERE IS THAT?>!>":?<REQW?KRMSD>LGJDSR:U

Literary Agent
Where is the Adult Women's Fiction that transforms The Hangover or Bridesmaids into something very black or BIPOC and very queer? #mswl Fuck, give me A Devil Wears Prada that's but with anything but the corporate world. Black, BIPOC, queer only.

Literary Agent
I just want stories where black and POC characters can do fun shit like solve their shitty exβs murder or investigate the strange blood that coming from the faucet. Like where are those dark and twisty stories?! NOT IN MY INBOX!!! π #mswl

Literary Agent
I ALWAYS forget to mention this, so thanks @samanthashnh for jogging the noggin!
I would LOVE womenβs fiction featuring early 20s-early 20s womyn who are POC and queer POC! Particularly, black womyn. Something fresh & high-concept! #mswl

Literary Agent
Where is the YA and Adult horror featuring queers and BIPOC (and def QTPOC!!!) in my inbox? #mswl

Literary Agent
On the lookout for the next Tiffany Jackson, Courtney Summers (circa SADIE), and Kara Thomas. Again: queer, kids of color, dark tone, twisty. Can be funny, weird! #mswl

Literary Agent
Always HIGH on my #mswl priority: YA; queer friends of color from the hood, or lower-middle class a la failed NY industry. Full of heart, promise, and school skipping hijinks to idk attempt to skate the Statue of Liberty. Fast talking, no-nonsense kids w/a tight bond. Funny!

Literary Agent
First on my #mswl: I want an f/f YA contemporary centering a black girl or girl of color who isn't confused about anything other than How To Get The Girl. A 2015-now voice.

Literary Agent
Iβll be coming through queries this week and I REALLY REALLY REALLY NEED a contemporary please. No rich kids, no white suburbia. Forget the standard girl-meets-boy.
I want the mother/daughter dynamic of EMERGENCY CONTACT. A black/POC Kara Thomas. A raunchier-voiced rom-com #mswl
