Throwing this interesting history factoid out there, for anyone who would like to write me an f/f blacksmith romance:In 1851 14 girls were employed as apprentice blacksmiths in England and Wales.*
*That’s in contrast to 15,066 boys. Stats from the census. pic.twitter.com/5uIGIl9V0E
Y'all, I would DIE for this. Please please please write it #MSWL

Once again, I am opening my heart to horror, my first true love. Please give me psychological and creepy, gothic, thrillery, moody and atmospheric, dark. Think Lovecraft Country and Crimson Peak. Get my heart racing, make me hesitant to turn the page. But no gore. #MSWL

Just watched S2E1 of SNOWPIERCER - excited to see what they do with this season!
I love stories like this - claustrophobic settings, impossible decisions, time limits, and global stakes.
#MSWL books that make me feel like that! ^

Really hungry for some good contemporary romances right now. Romcom, serious, tortured, preferably with a slow burn romance. ♥️

I want to read a love story that will make me happy cry. I open to queries on Feb 6. Please send me your words. #mswl

Hi all, back again with a #MSWL update.
I'd LOVE to get my YA romance list to match my adult romance list. @camilliemill and @chloe_liese have spoiled me rotten with inclusive, swoony romances.
For YA romance, I want all of the BIPOC rep, disability rep, and LGBTQIA+ rep 😍🤗

Something I would really, really like is a project (illustrated, perhaps?) that revolves around big-picture understanding regarding the ways our economy is set up to prize profit and growth over quality, inevitably resulting in either collapse or exploitation. #MSWLFor no reason at all, I'm reupping this #MSWL
Literary Agent
And I remain eager to bring more disability and neurodiverse #ownvoices representation to romance, women’s fiction and YA contemporaries. #MSWL

I loved everything about Sylvie's Love on @PrimeVideo: the 50s Harlem setting, the music scene, the love story. It's made me eager to find more historical romance/women's fiction featuring BIPOC characters. #MSWL
Literary Agent
I'd like to see something that's a cross between The Haunting of Brynn Wilder and Mexican Gothic. Women's fiction with a lush, gothic setting that's creepy, but doesn't cross quite as far into horror. #MSWL
Literary Agent
I grew up watching soap operas, & loved You Had Me at Hola. Would love to see women's fiction based in world of soaps (can be behind the scenes/in front of camera/after leaving spotlight). Something w/ humor and heart but feels authentic & respectful of the industry. #MSWL
Literary Agent
#MSWL Someone write me a book called CARRION, just as dark & dangerous as it sounds, but w/expansive, lush world building. Epic fantasy would be cool here, an alternate, dangerous world where nothing is ever safe & little is sacred, except among a small few who carry the torch.

I would love a Black romance in the vein of Netflix's SOMEONE GREAT X JUST ONE DAY by Gayle Forman...
Someone please pull on my heart strings!

that will cause some dissonance on my end because expectations didn't match reality. Here I go:A contemporary Golden Girls #YA. No SFF. I'm looking for 4 friends of any gender/sexuality dealing with contemporary issues in a serious & comedic way. If you're a fan of #amquerying
The Golden Girls think of the episodes where Dorothy deals with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, or Rose dealing with HIV/AIDS, or Blanche dealing with menopause, or Sophia dealing with the death of her son.

My anxiety is high bc #MSWL tweet. Remember Flannery Literary is open to all children's literature queries. Don't try to fit your MS to match. If it doesn't match, that's ok. Query us your polished MS. If you say your MS matches when it doesn't
