I closed to queries for a while, but I'm baaaack! A quick #MSWL note to celebrate While kidlit will always have my heart, I'm actively trying to build up the adult side of my list—so if you've got thrillers, romcoms, horror, spec and contemp fiction, I wanna see!

#Adult #MSWL :
- LGBTQ+ romance & diverse casts
- romcoms especially!
- enemies to lovers, slow burn, villain/hero, love triangles
- romantasy!
- psychological & cerebral horror with diversity!
- horror that stems from the real world & paranormal
- social commentary!
(4/5)

#YA #MSWL :
- all genres & YA/Adult crossover
- fast paced, high stakes, drama
- snarky, voicey, morally grey protagonists & villains
- trope-filled romances!
- competitions, tests, quests
- retellings & fresh takes on classics
- YA fantasy is my favorite!
(3/5)

#MSWL (cont.)

Adult book club, commercial manuscripts that could comp: So Happy For You, Counterfeit, Killers of a Certain Age, If I Had Your Face, The House in the Pines, All My Rage, White Ivy, or Patricia Wants to Cuddle.

Friendly reminder to #amquerying authors: I open to all queries (within YA & Adult SFF and romance) on Friday, 9/1!

I’m in pretty good shape with numbers right now (I think 60 ish queries and 25 fills), and I’m excited to see what y’all send me!

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:
