I think a story with a masculine presenting/masculine of center main female character could be really fun! YA or otherwise (a romance could also be interesting!) 🤔 #MSWL

It's official! I am re-opening to queries March 1st to March 31st, 2023.I've thought long and hard about the best way to balance my time, and I believe this is it. My inbox has been abundant with high quality work and I think this small window...
I open to queries in March for ONE month! If you are in my inbox right now you are in my Maybe pile and you'll hear from me soon (I hope)
A few #MSWL things I'm on the look out for (a thread)
1. I am still craving a BIPOC vampire book.
2. 👇🏽

When I reopen to queries in March, I’d like to see more adult romance & I want to see more bi, pan, and demi MCs too 🌈✨ #mswl

"For rom coms, my taste veers towards genre-blends, i.e., a rom com that's also a family saga or a romcom com that's also a thriller. DIAL A FOR AUNTIES by Jesse Q. Sutanto is a great example and my all-time favorite rom com."

Queerness that isn't solely abt trauma or coming out,
FUNNY books that genuinely make me LOL,
Unexpected setting that influences the plot (& becomes a character itself).

Across the board I'd love to see:
characters w/ disabilities where the disability is NOT a twist or a problem to be solved,
Any genre exploring how legacy & lineage (or lack thereof) impacts a character's current challenges,
Twists that serve the plot not just shock factor,

A VERY specific wish list item, could be any genre (SF/F, horror, contemporary, etc.) but a novel about the Navajo Rangers from a Navajo author (perhaps something along the lines of what was featured in Unsolved Mysteries Volume 3).
7/
Literary Agent
Upmarket Fiction that has a dark and/or speculative edge,
bookclub fiction that doesn't center white women,
LGBTQ+ history,
speculative fiction about the Tsunami spirits in Ishinomaki, focusing on collective healing (the ghost taxis especially usatoday.com/story/news/wor…)
6/
Literary Agent
Romance & cozy mysteries centering BIPOC &/or queer casts,
embracing queer identity late in life,
action-adventures that comp to The Lost City,
sunshine-grumpy trope (or grumpy-grumpy, anything w/ a snarky, lovably cranky protag who might be a cinnamon roll underneath it all)
