If I don't see your pitch but you think we'd be a good match, feel free to query. I rep adult romance, mystery, women's fiction, upmarket and literary fiction, as well as nonfiction. I no longer rep children's books (YA and below).

Also, authors with diverse historical romance in particular, wave your hands if I don't see you! #PitMad #MSWL

There are hints of springtime in the air, so I'd love to see some outdoorsy romance or women's fiction. Give me competing archaeologists, park rangers, adventure guides, farmer's market rivals, anything! #mswl #mswlmadness

Contemporary or historical romance with a hint (or more) of magic. #mswl

In contemporary romance, I am much more likely to fall in love with a book that makes me laugh vs one that makes me cry. I'm not a huge fan of billionaires or motorcycle clubs, so those are probably best sent to other agents who love them.

Now for some specifics! In romance, I am particularly interested in historical romances, and would love to see more diversity in my submissions. Let's see the Regency, Victorian, and Edwardian periods through different eyes.

Who's up for some Friday afternoon #mswl tweets? Here are some specific things I'll be looking for at BookEnds!

As a general reminder, I rep adult romance, mystery, women's, and upmarket fiction, and have a deep and abiding love for historical fiction across all genres. I also rep narrative nonfiction, especially on topics like the literary world, food, material culture, & social history.

I didn't get to peek at #KissPitch today, but hoping to do some poking around tonight and tomorrow. If I fave, please follow the submission guidelines at QueryMe.Online/AmandaJain.

I am particularly looking for diverse historical romance, so if you have it and I don't see you, feel free to send me a query! #mswl #amquerying #amwriting
