1. Adult Contemporary/Romance: I love a gushy romance or a strong feel-good contemporary with a bittersweet ending. I'm a big fan of second-chance romance (bonus points if it's dual timeline). If it's comp'd to Emily Henry or Taylor Jenkins Reid, I want to see it. (2/8)

#MSWL 🧵 before I open to queries on Friday!
I will be open to most genres of YA and Adult including but not limited to contemporary, romance, thriller, speculative, dystopian, issue-driven, fantasy, eco-fiction, sci-fi. Here's some things I'll be keeping my eye out for. (1/8)

Okay @KidlitKat was absolutely right about this book.

If you have written a YA or Adult book that comps to this, I want to read it!!! #mswl

My goal is to keep y'all in the loop as much as possible. As a new agent, I'm pretty much going to be open to most genres in YA and Adult. Eventually, I see myself opening up to MG further down the road. That being said, I'll do a #MSWL thread early next week (2/11)

I just played/finished Venba (takes less than 90min, maybe less than an hour?)

A/YA Cozy Fantasy or YA Contemporary like this please #MSWL

✨SURPRISE✨

Thrilled to announce my promotion to Junior Agent at @BookerAlbertLit
!! MSWL link in bio and thread coming soon. I’ll be open to queries on September 1!

I’m so excited for this next step and cannot wait to read your stories! #amagenting #WritingCommunity

I am obsessed with Forged in Fire. If anyone has a modern bladesmith YA or adult romance please send to me! #mswl

(Currently not looking for historical)

"I want unique, genre-blending romance novels. I wish I had worked on THE PLUS ONE by Sarah Archer or any of Roselle Lim’s breathtaking romantic contemporary fantasy novels. Give me an adult rom com in space, or with magic."

Fall 2023 #MSWL
YA thrillers or rom-coms with a fresh twist
MG magical realism or high concept action/adventure
Illustrators or author/illustrators

Select Adult manuscripts in upmarket fiction and contemporary romance

Awkward/ridiculous/LOL in any genre

#amquerying

I'm hoping for cozy mystery set outside the US and/or diverse. I am open to all Adult Mystery now, but I prefer locked door, cozy, or more traditional mystery over crime stories.

Reminder that these aren't the limit of my wish list items. I'm open to fiction in a lot of genres and age groups, from MG to YA to adult. Please see the full #MSWL here:

With so many pitch events fast approaching, I thought it was about time for an #MSWL refresh. I rep everything from picture books to adult fiction, but am looking to fill some particular gaps:

"I want adult fiction with a fresh angle and/or twist on the social climber trope."

Not sure if you know this about me, but I LOVE 💗 stories. I will ALWAYS be open to adult Romance in my inbox. In ALL subgenres—contemporary, romcom, fantasy, stories w/speculative elements.

But I’m also open to other age groups & genres. Here’s a little more of my #MSWL

"Seeking generational stories of parenthood and family with non-binary and/or trans characters in the commercial or historical adult fiction genre (ie. heavy with plot!)"

Adult Fantasy

Villains being truly and genuinely villainous, romance at the forefront but politics at the core, family dynasties, high stakes adventure, historical dramas, highly aesthetic spaces, thoughtfully done ensemble casts with series potential. Give me more Fourth Wing

Adult Book Club fiction

I want to capture what Greta Gerwig does on screen, but in book form. Stories about young women reclaiming their stories, confronting their family legacies, and exploring their identities. Coming of age stories past adolescence.

💕Adult Romance💕

I love books that straddle the line between women’s fiction and romance. Books with a lot of heart and deep connections between characters. Summer nights. Escapist environments. Friend groups. Big emotions and high concept. Interconnected standalones. Angst.

"If you have how-tos for beauty and self-care, I'm interested. Think sustainable and eco-friendly, capsule wardrobes, and decluttering, etc. Adult and YA welcome."

I'm currently only open to queries from illustrators and adult nonfiction authors. Query me here: QueryManager.com/QueryLynnetteN…. I'm TEMPORARILY closed to all other age groups and genres. I'll post here when I reopen to the rest. #MSWL #WritingCommunity
