🎉Excited to share that I've been promoted to assistant editor! 🎉 Thx to everyone who helped me reach this milestone (and watched me cut off my hair and regrow it during the pandemic 🙃). Here’s to meeting agents and acquiring for my own list! Stay tuned for my #mswl

I want a plant book! I want a nonfiction plant book that makes it easy to take care of plants at home, in an apartment, ideally, some things that are edible! I can never tell if I'm doing something right with herbs and searching the internet is tiresome...🌱#MSWL

And agents, if you have a project that you feel meets the above criteria but have questions, shoot me an email so we can have a meeting and talk books. Or if you did send it to me and I haven’t followed up with you, please shoot me a reminder. 😅 Thanks so much for reading! 💚

My white whale (I have been asking for years!) is an atmospheric traditional contemporary mystery in the vein of Louise Penny and Suzanne Chazin. Bonus points if the author and characters are both marginalized! #MSWL

Because romance is such a competitive and crowded and shrinking marketplace in print, those submissions must have strong, complex, and relatable characters. The hooks must be compelling, the narrative voice must be entertaining, and the pacing has *got* to be just right. #MSWL

For non-fiction, I am looking for prescriptive self-help and health titles that are targeted toward millennial and adult Gen Z readers, as well as marginalized audiences of all ages. #MSWL

Hello, literary agents! It’s been awhile since I’ve done this, so here’s a thread of #MSWL requests, aka the submissions I want to see in my inbox:

First off, work by BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and/or disabled authors are always welcome in the genres I edit, which includes romance yes, but also mystery and thrillers, upmarket fiction, fiction with fantasy/sci-fi/ speculative elements that are mainstream crossovers, and nonfiction.

(i’d also like to see some genre blending romventures that combine romance/action and adventure/mystery/comedy. love pointing to DIAL A FOR AUNTIES; it’s so good)
