PW really said "we don't want poors in our romance kthx" twitter.com/SoniaHartl1/st…Hey so, good opportunity to make it EXPLICITLY CLEAR that romances depicting non-wealthy (or even middle class) experiences are very important to me!!!
This is true in all genres, but romance gets a special call-out bc um, poor folks deserve swoony love stories too? Obv??

GENRES (2/2):
I want to see even more:
• Fantasy/sci-fi/speculative! (Yes, the whole spectrum, from magical realism to epic/high/hard)
• Myth/folklore!
• (Queer) romance!
• Mystery!
• Historical!
