I want to see fun and sweet contemporary romances with high concept hooks in the adult space as well. Think Lily Chu’s The Stand In or Emily Henry’s Book Lovers. I’m probably not the right agent for more serious romance stories. #MSWL

I’d love to see more horror in my inbox. It can be adult (or YA). Not slash and hack bloody horror, but the kind that builds psychological tension in a smart and surprising way. #MSWL

I’m expanding into repping more adult projects in genre fiction. I want to see more cozy fantasy, romantic or not, with low stakes, warmth, humor and whimsy. Basically a hug in book form. #MSWL

It’s #MSWL Day! I’ve always been so bad of coming up with specifics because I really am a reader who likes being surprised and is open to falling in love with a great story, but with that being said here’s some info about general things I’m looking for:

My full #mswl can be found on the agency website but here’s what I’m especially looking for in 2023:

—Adult + YA RomCom that are FUNNY AF *or/and* Adult Romance w a magic/spec twist
—Suspense/Thrillers (we need more queer and POC rep in this category!)
—MG Fantasy! All kinds!

Hi all--updated my #MSWL page here for 2023: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/jess… Would love to hear from you!

And finally, though this is less specific... I'm looking for a novel that SURPRISES me! #MSWL

Send me your thrillers or mysteries that feel authentic and bring in the experience, culture, and sense-of-place of less-represented perspectives and new voices. #MSWL

Happy #MSWL day! I represent authors in the Adult, YA, and crossover SFF space. I am always looking for sharp writing, punchy characters, and big emotions. ☺️ Query me!

Having lived in Japan on and off for four years, I would love to find a novel, any genre, having to do with Japan or Japanese culture. Loved Tokyo Ever After, by Emiko Jean, and Fault Lines, by Emily Etani. #MSWL

For #MSWL Day, here are some of the things I'd most love to see in my Query Manager:

Would love to find Extraordinary Attorney Woo in book form, adult or YA.

It's #MSWL day today and mine's a little dusty, but currently seeking surprising and fun mainstream novels and mystery/thrillers with iconic women at the forefront!

My #MSWL for Love Inspired Trade includes domestic thriller, rom-com and complex women's fiction. My newly updated profile: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/shan…

I’d love to see a VIDA in the Rom Com genre. And a Romantasy with Spanglish peppered in the text. Or a grittier, less polished BOLD TYPE! #MSWL

If any of these describe your book, I hope to see you in my Query Manager soon! I'm updated on my queries through 1/29 and try to respond as soon as possible😊

I’m not the right fit for: military/police novels, “return to hometown” romances, fantasy, science fiction, most young adult, and WWI/WWII historical fiction.
