Bring me strong character relationships and lush world-building. I want adventure and multi-level plots and tension that keeps me on the edge of my seat. Leave me wishing I was still wrapped up in the pages when I’m finished! #MSWL

My top 2 Adult Romance #MSWL wishes would be:
1. Adventure romance like The Mummy or Romancing the Stone—super steamy & fun, w/ a hint of suspense or the supernatural
2. Contemporary romance series set in a big city w/ a small town vibe—think Friends meets Virgin River
Literary Agent
Is “send me your book that reads like fanfiction written about your queer dnd party’s adventures” too specific of an #MSWL?

I am probably going to open back up to queries before the New Year but I am going to narrow the genres I'm looking for this time. So please consider this my #mswl list (which I will update).
I will be opening to Action & Adventures.
Books set in extreme environments.
Literary Agent
MG:
funny, heartfelt action-adventure featuring queer, BIPOC, marginalized voices, ideally with some magic or fantastical elements
Literary Agent
And also, contemporary MG that’s full of adventure, humour and heart. There can be fantasy elements but I tend to love real(ish) world settings.
Literary Agent
#MSWL I would love a story about viruses (as long as it's not coronavirus- I need some escapism).
I would also love a book based around a volcanic eruption or another natural disaster. But with the focus on disaster management and the action/adventure side of things.

I'm usually an all sci-fi/fantasy, all the time kinda editor.
BUT...
Right now I would *kill* for an OUTER BANKS-esque YA—a soapy contemporary adventure/survival story, particularly one with a strong focus on class divide...
Agents, hit me up! #mswl
