#mswl I’d really love a tightly plotted adult space opera. Kind of thinking a failing “abandoned” human colony sets out to make their way home. Maybe some crazy time dilation or something has occurred. Maybe very few men on the colony survive & they are trying to save them..cont.

For this particular #mswl, I’m not looking for intergalactic empires, rogues, mercenaries, smugglers etc. I really want to feel the vastness of space, that feeling of being alone. I want the story and the setting to mimic that feeling of isolation as well as Passengers did!

I’d love to see this novel in my inbox. #MSWL twitter.com/LATBermudez/st…

I don’t often rep women’s fiction/romance; I mostly just applaud while my agency-mates @tayhaggerty & @hroot + their rad clients dominate the whole category, but this is a story I’d happily break all my rules for. #MSWL #wantwantwant

If you haven't watched #BooksmartMovie already, please do! And to all my agents friends out there, it's major #mswl! The intimacy of female friendships, a queer protag, and teen girls getting into shenanigans 😍

I use the #MSWL tag to publicly indicate what I’d like to see in submissions, so if authors have MS with those elements they’re encouraged to submit to me. Sometimes it’s a genre, sometimes it’s an idea for a character or a theme. That’s it, folks.

“In science fiction I’m looking for space opera with complex worlds, complex characters and voices and thrilling adventures, like LIGHTLESS or LEVIATHAN WAKES.” @maureen_moretti #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

#MSWL I've tweeted something similar in the past but YA in the same vein as Sally Thorne, Marisha Pessl, Helen Hoang, and Caroline Kepnes are evergreen requests for me.

#MSWL I've read amazing contemporary fiction lately. WITH THE FIRE ON HIGH, RED, WHITE AND ROYAL BLUE, MEET CUTE, THE MUSIC OF WHAT HAPPENS, ALEX, APROXIMATELY, THE PRINCESS AND THE FANGIRL, 99 PERCENT MINE, ON THE COME UP. So great! If you can comp these for YA send them my way.

Would love a rom com featuring POC characters and how their families tie into it all. I want them defying stereotypes, but loving, respecting, and owning their culture. #MSWL

Eric Smith @ericsmithrocks

There's always something so fun about genre novels that explore the regular people who live alongside the supernatural. Their frustrations.

IE: Patrick Ness' brilliant The Rest Of Us Just Live Here.

Like, there's a familiar in What We Do In the Shadows who is like 80+ years old, and is still saying "any day now."

Imagine a father figure in a YA novel who is a familiar, and his wildly frustrated family. Does the teen become a slayer?

Anyhow, send this to me someone. #MSWL

I've been watching the TV adaptation of What We Do in the Shadows (it's brilliant), and I'm just obsessed with the world of the familiars, the humans serving the vampires.

I would DEVOUR a vampire novel from the perspective of familiar. Who is maybe tired of waiting? #MSWL
