Diverse, IR romances and romcoms:

I want both MCs to be POC and the relationship to be multi-cultural &/or multi-ethnic pls! IR can exclude WASP ppl.

For this think Someone Great, Lovebirds, Photograph, Talia Hilbert, Jasmine Guillory, Honey Girl

Gothic/Dark Academia:

Think Crimson Peak, Edgar Allen Poe, The Haunting of Bly Manor, Mexican Gothic, Ninth House, Ace of Spades, dark Gossip Girl, & Addams Family!

Give me a heavy atmosphere & aesthetic.

How I would KILL for a BIPOC Yellow Wallpaper x Haunting of Bly Manor

So #writtingcommunity & #amquerying folks, I'll be re-opening to queries September 1st! 👀

That means it's time for an updated #MSWL!!

I'm moving away from fantasy right now and want to see the following from BIPOC writers:

#MSLW I've seen queries before w/ worlds where water is scarce. Would love to see something like this in the YA or even MG space when I reopen to queries. You can always put something like "#MSWL For YA drought-world book" or whatever the MSWL is in the referral space.

Seconding this #MSWL ❤️👀❤️

#mswl Actively looking for historical fiction rich with culture (ie: Egyptian, Asian, Indian). I’m talking stories with strong, progressive girls or women that seemed to been born in the wrong time. Time travel is also absolutely accepted.

This is extremely on my #MSWL
