I think a story with a masculine presenting/masculine of center main female character could be really fun! YA or otherwise (a romance could also be interesting!) 🤔 #MSWLIt’s #MSWL Day! I’m exited to see what we’re all longing/wishing/dreaming for. I’ve been sharing a few things here and there but if you want know more check out my full list here:

Happy #MSWL Day!
I am still closed to unsolicited queries for the time being, but I updated my profile to give those at pitch events and those who are thinking of querying me once I reopen an idea of what I'm looking for!

I'm still closed until about April. BUT...I'll reopen for about 1 week only & will give advance notice here. I'll be looking for ONLY HISTORICAL ROMANCE (Regency, preferred) & YA Mystery/Thriller. Strong desire for BIPOC & LGBTQ authors/stories. So get those queries ready!

& How could I forget!? NEW ADULT, NEW ADULT, NEW ADULT is all genres
Mark my words, publishing, this will become a thing!

Overall things & random misc.:
- Any and all BIPOC
- Anything Tarot-related
- Unique structures like REPLICA or stories told in fragments
- What if the main character loses or doesn't get the happily ever after?
- Messy relationships, regretful choices, & life or death decisions

In MG, still looking for spooky with a series of competitions or games 🧩
Think "Ordinary character in extraordinary circumstances".
Also, tear-jerking novel-in-verse

In YA, Dark Academia with a haunting setting: creepy tunnels, secret societies, and characters with questionable motives/abilities 🏰
Rom Com's 💕 Slow burning romances. Bonus points if it's with an out of school setting
Fantasy 🪄 New spin on magic world and/or powers

It's #MSWL Day... 📜
In Adult I'm now open to SFF, so I'd love to see lush world building, morally grey MC's & lovable villains 🖤
Time Travel where it compliments a much bigger plot 🪐
I'm still on the look out for a psychological thriller with an unreliable narrator 🎭

It's #MSWL Day, & what I'm most excited about right now is LOVE stories! Please, please gimme 'em! Also, I'd love to see thrillers in the adult & YA space. There's more–because I'm greedy like that–so check out the new manuscript wishlist page. Thanks! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/Jemi…

I'm not actively looking for new MG at this time, and I'm being selective with new YA but still very excited about the ones I get excited about. Send me your contemporaries & your very fresh-feeling fantasy in particular!
Literary Agent
Several of my YA romance writers are pivoting to adult and I am having a great time with it, so I'm opening to adult rom-coms for the first time! Still not the best fit for genre romance, but send me your funny, layered, high-concept mainstream rom-coms.
Literary Agent
Big fascinating SFF with a moment that grabs you by the throat, like EMPIRE OF EXILES or the forthcoming THESE BURNING STARS - or, not on my list, THE TRAITOR BARU CORMORANT or GIDEON THE NINTH.

Ok, if you have a book that could be described as A DEADLY EDUCATION meets A MARVELLOUS LIGHT (magicians, possibly magic school, gay, romantic, extremely fun to read), please send it my way ASAP, I am dying for this. #mswlAlso, specifically, still into this tweet from 2021: twitter.com/bredalot/statu…
Literary Agent
Romantic SFF along the lines of CM Waggoner, Freya Marske, THE UNDERTAKING OF HART & MERCY, or WINTER'S ORBIT (or the secret book that will be announced v soon, hang tight)
Literary Agent
Ok, I'm still in the process of getting set up for this, but since it's #MSWL day: I am planning to reopen for queries for the first ten days of every month, beginning in March! Here's what I'm particularly excited about these days:
