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

Literary Agent
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

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!

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

I want a queer romance that feels like Crush Culture by Conan Gray. But with characters who are rough around the edges. I donβt like βsweetβ or βniceβ characters, I want ones with bite! #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
