Nepali writers, Iβm looking for a YA Nepali fantasy! Give me romance and awesome characters. I want it! #MSWL

Assistant Editor
Magical realism is also welcome in my inbox as well as fabulism in both, YA and Adult #MSWL

Assistant Editor
Looking for romantic YA fantasy! Give me stories that hinge on those relationships, the emotional nuance, where weβre in it for the tension and angst and the feels #MSWL

Assistant Editor
I also adore tropes. Enemies to lovers, marriage of convenience, fake dating, slow burn... Iβd love to see marginalized voice playing with these tropes in their books, especially YA fantasy (and romance of course)! #MSWL

Assistant Editor
Iβm also actively looking for Latinx voices in all the categories I acquire. And I mean all Latinx voices: Afro-Latinx, Indigenous, etc.; every one of your stories are welcome in my inbox if you think I might be a good fit. I want more of our stories out there #MSWL

Assistant Editor
Iβm really, really looking for some Latinx fantasies! This is one of the things I want the most on my list. Send them my way; I want them! #MSWL

family secrets and relationships. I also do nonfiction in the mind, body, spirit side leaning more towards the spirit category. Tarot and oracle cards, crystals, spell work, mediums, mysticism, witches, etc. are where I make my home #MSWL

and high concept thrillers. I want to see something different and fresh
- For contemporary, Iβm looking for stories on the lighter side (friendships, romcoms, family, etc)
For Adult:
Basically what I said above. I also do category romance, womenβs fiction centered on #MSWL

Assistant Editor
For YA:
- Iβm looking for any and all kinds of fantasy, from grim dark to the lightest, fluffiest contemporary fantasy
- Iβm looking for Gothic stories. I love the concept of monsters, the uncanny, the way it delves into the characters
- Iβm also looking for supernatural #MSWL

Assistant Editor
That voice that drips off the page. I like going through the journey with a narrator that takes me places and grips me until the very end. If the book has solidly crafter characters and voice, Iβll join along for the ride.
Moving on to genres: #MSWL

Assistant Editor
The overarching things that connect everything I look for are characters and voice. I love delving deep into characters, how they change and feel, how their relationships are and evolve. I love the emotional resonance of this; I love feeling things as I read. I also love #MSWL

Assistant Editor
Happy 2022! May this year bring us more wonderful things and rest. Time to update my #MSWL, but first:
- Iβm always looking for stories by and about diverse voices
- Please donβt pitch me on twitter
- Agented submissions only
Letβs roll!
