I say again… if it’s a murder mystery, give me shot! #mswl 🔪 🩸 🕵🏻‍♀️

I’m looking for very high concept rom coms that will stick out in what is a very crowded market! 💕

Two examples of high concept rom coms:

🦜 RAIDERS OF THE LOST HEART
🔪 BUTCHER & BLACKBIRD

#MSWL

Also friendly reminder that I am looking for more marginalized voices to uplift. #MSWL

I want a secret advice column book #MSWL

Bear or man?
Please.
They’d be wise to fear me.
#MSWL

it's tough because i say "sff" and my light fantasy/fabulist/very lightly speculative people then don't realize I'm open to them!!

I’ve had a run of the dark fantastical and am eager for some light fantastical #mswl

how many people are not querying me because my listed genre of "speculative fiction" is confusing them....I am beginning to become alarmed at the questions I'm getting....if your book has a hint of ANYTHING magical/fantastical/sci-fi-y I am open to it pls

Is that the sound of a query box re-opening? This Wednesday, send me some hopeful science fiction and secondary world fantasy, and paranormal heists, please! And see the rest of my #MSWL here: corvisieroagency.com/gabrielle-harbowy.html #AmAgenting #Querying

Hi, all! I’m open to queries again starting today! Here are some specifics about what I’m on the hunt for but you can read my longer wishlist (and access my query form!) here: corvisieroagency.com/alexandra-grana.html

I want to end this by saying I am so excited to read your work and thank you so much for entrusting me with your stories! Books have been my greatest love since I was very young and I am honored that I now get to help bring them to life! 16/

Content I cannot read:

Please do not send me these, they are very sensitive to me so I would appreciate not having to read them.

On page rape or sexual abuse
On page child abuse or child death
On page death of a parent esp of cancer
Abusive LIs (that the MC ends up with) 15/

What I'm Not Looking For:

I'm not the best fit for non fiction, chapter or picture books. Those are other Belcastro agents better suited to those! I'm also not the best person for pro-cop or military story lines. 14/

And for ALL AGES, graphic novels! I would love to see any of the above genres in a graphic novels and I adore manga art styles! If it's queer, send it here!

And also for ALL ages and categories, if you have a main theme of grief or processing grief I would love to read it! 13/

Adult Thrillers: I recently found a LOVE for this and am craving to read more. I love a dark academia setting, serial killers, stalkers, locked in a room/home. I love not being able to figure something out until the end, give me unexpected twists and turns, keep me guessing! 12/

...And again, blend this in with something else and I am ALL about it. I also have an extreme soft spot for post apocalyptic horror and all things zombie 😍 11/

Adult/YA Horror: It takes a lot to scare me, so hit me with your best shot! I want to be terrified so that I can't sleep. I want sentient settings, scares that mess with your mind, where the lines of reality are blurred...10/

...Also PLEASE send me sci fi horror. I want to be terrified like I was with Dead Space. Show me cosmic terror and science getting out of control, science breaking loose! I want all the chaos! 9/

Adult/YA Sci Fi: The more science the better! Extrapolations on current science/tech is my jam. I would also love a story set in space/space station, or set after an apocalypse....8/
