I love VERY DIFFERENT fantasy. The more genre-bending the better. Kritika's books blend epic fantasy (no swords!) with a touch of sci fi, STRONG sense of place, & strong contemporary relevance. If you're wondering what I mean by "very different fantasy" on #MSWL - add this TBR!

These vibes right here #MSWL

Seeking literary & commercial crime/mystery, thriller & speculative/scifi. Unique hooks & new, diverse views in these classic genres. Linguistic & storytelling mastery, high personal stakes, psychological depth.❤️Tana French, Hervé Le Tellier, Octavia Butler, Kazuo Ishiguro #MSWL

ok yes #mswl

Okay but this would be incredible #mswl

You know what is more fresh and interesting and high-stakes to me than stories about leaving earth for space? Saving and preserving earth for future generations. #MSWL

I’m open to queries again & I’ll be sending out some #mswl requests here and there! The first is for more #ya; I’d love to see rom-coms, family dramas, friends sticking together. I love dramas but I’m also in the mood to laugh right now; pls bring on the funny! #amwriting

#MSWL please please! M!S!W!L! cnn.com/travel/article…

“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.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

Stayed up far too late finishing Reckless Girls by @LadyHawkins... perfect example of the sort of suspense I'm after at the moment. Escapist, feminist, chilling, a little bit sexy, multi POV, secrets-and-lies, a proper 'shut-the-front-door' ending... #mswl fodder indeed!

My steaminess limits = my spicy food tolerance. Medium is my max.

Swoony friends/rivals to lovers contemp. romance brings me joy. Think Emily Henry, Farah Heron, Beth O'Leary, Denise Williams. #MSWL

Women's fiction that makes me cry at the end of the book, from heartwarming or heartbreak, is a fave, and I'm a sucker for a dual timeline when masterfully done. #MSWL

I'm looking for thrillers and suspense that make me gasp at the twists, mysteries with sleuths to root for. BIPOC/LGBT/disabled voices very welcome. #MSWL

Excited to share my #mswl! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/juli…

I see a lot of you are writing descent into villainy arcs and you are formally invited to query me with those manuscripts when they're ready because that's my catnip #MSWL

"Dark, twisted, borderline disturbing… words I’d use to describe my interest in thrillers. Not looking for gore at the moment, but definitely into psychological elements. Especially fictionalized accounts of actual crimes." @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/
