2/ MYSTERY: clever puzzles, tight timeframes, and compelling characters. Hobby-based mysteries (ballet, RPGs, filmmaking, gardening/botany, climbing/hiking). Settings I'd love to see include: college campuses, elite art/music/dance world, isolated retreats, off-season beach towns, sprawling estates

- Commercial romance (I prefer it have a more upmarket feel like Jenny Han than a swoony Danielle Steel style)
- Adult titles...unless you write #kidlit too!

I guess that's good enough for #mswl day. Feel free to ask questions. I'll do my best to respond to everyone in a timely manner.

- Forced proximity romance, love triangles, open relationships, and unconventional couplings

My anti-mswl? I'm not a great fit for:
- Paranormal stories
- Mean girls (unless tackled in a way that acknowledges the internalized misogyny involved)
- Hisfic or epic/hard sff (unless in GN or NIV form)

- Queer rep that isn't about coming out (though maybe that's part of the plot), and esp stories where queer characters are questioning or quietly queer.
- Friendship break-ups
- Platonic friendships where peer pressure or social expectations complicate things
- Settings as characters

Wait...it's #MSWL day? Well then!

I'm currently only open to #kidlit graphic novels, but in general, I like:
- complex caregiver/child relationships (I was raised in a kinship situation, and I like to see those complex layers in stories for kids)
- economic differences authentically represented

I’d love to find my first author/illustrator, preferably for picture books. For more info on PBs—with an updated section on art—check out my MSWL link. Some recent PBs I enjoyed are “A Little Like Magic,” “Big,” “Aloha Everything,” and “Where Three Oceans Meet.” #mswl

Some kind of romantasy or fantasy romance in YA. Standalone preferred but series potential is okay. Would love something without “I must save the world” type stakes but there’s still a solid plot and conflict #mswl

I’m a sucker for royalty stories—secret, just discovered, in hiding, etc. I love contemporary—though fantasy and historical are also cool—in YA or MG. An MG childhood favorite is “The Princess Plot,” and a recent one is “Red, White & Royal Blue” but for YA. Romance or crushes are encouraged #mswl

Happy #mswl day #querying writers! Here’s my wish list link, though there are a few specific items below. At the moment, I’m looking for children’s books, but I’d love to represent an author’s full body of work for all future projects in any age group.

MY #MSWL

1/ A female vigilante in vein of DEXTER, but make it a solid romance.

2/ Contemp Rom w/Indigenous MCs written by an Indigenous author.

3/ Something accurately historical centered around children at “Indian Boarding Schools.”

QueryManager.com/querycathie

Reopening to queries on 2/20

One thing I'd like to see more of is non-fiction from writers with a really strong platform #mswl

Throughout all categories, I'm loving diversity and social justice #mswl

I also enjoy fantasy if it's fun and original, either grounded, or with amazing world building and something to say about the world. I get a lot of submissions loaded with familiar tropes, so originality will stand out. #mswl
