2. Issue-driven: In either space, I love stories that drive off important concepts of mental health or other real-world issues (grief, divorce, friendships). I've lived these experiences and I wish I had books to read growing up that made me feel seen. We need them. (3/8)

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)

soooo excited for this year's #DVpit ! i'm still only open the first week of every month (except for this upcoming sept) but will def be ravenous for pitches at this discord's pitch event. 😈 #writingcommunity #amquerying #mswl

Might mess around and do a little #MSWL thread tomorrow 👀 4 days until I open to queries!!

Everyone has a mermaid novel but me #mswl

I just really like fun books about women #mswl

FYI — In the last two months I’ve read and loved COUNTERFEIT and FOR YOUR OWN GOOD and PEOPLE YOU MEET ON VACATION and LESSONS IN CHEMISTY. I’d love to see manuscripts that comp to any of these #mswl

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)

Thursday Transparency 🧵before I open to queries next week!
I'm so excited for this next step in my career as an agent and can't wait to read all of your stories. As an author who's been on the other side, I wanted to provide some details about my agenting process. (1/11)

"I'd really love to get more YA horror in my inbox. Smart horror. I don't want gore, I want a story that creeps me out, and asks questions I don't want answers to."

Horrifying and beautiful. #MSWL

Novelists of Twitter (I refuse the other name): where is the RushTok romance we all need? Or…a mystery? Pls hmu with this important literary contribution. And also note I was in charge of recruitment for all sororities at my college so I mean business. #mswl

Here’s what I’d love to find in my inbox:

A stellar suspense manuscript written by a POC.

The suspense shelf is full of white women, and while they are very talented, we definitely need to diversify this section of the bookstore.
