My DMs are open for AOC and other marginalized authors who have questions about the Christian publishing programs at Harlequin. I'm acquiring for Love Inspired, Love Inspired Suspense, and Love Inspired Trade. You can find my updated #mswl here: bit.ly/2ZFXhkd

For Mystic Owl (City Owl's new imprint) I will be seeking shorter edge-of-your-seat novels involving magic, shifters, or unique paranormal creatures, and fully developed worlds. #MSWL

YES! yes yes yes add this to my #mswl too ✨

this show is literally the only thing that brightens my day and it is so funny and smart and swoony 🥰

Between my new found love for Oumi Janta and binge-watching Betty, I am so ready for some rollerblading/skateboarding YA magic to happen #mswl

SOME NEWS! After an S&S restructure, I'm now at McElderry, where I'll still be acquiring YA but will *also* be actively looking to build my MG list!

So agents, please keep me in mind for all your upcoming SFF middle grade! I'm definitely prioritizing that at the moment. #MSWL

This post reminds me that I need one of you YA authors to write a creepy gothic retelling of the story of green ribbon girl. Maybe a graphic novel?!? #mswl

i wrote this in an introduction to my ~taste~ that i put together for our ed director & realised i never said it in public so:

i would really really really really love to work on a picture book biography or MG NF graphic novel about grace lee boggs #mswl

In speculative fiction, I'm looking more for folklore, magical realism, surrealism, cozy fantasy, light fantasy, and atmospheric fantasy with lush world building and gorgeous prose, than traditional high/ epic fantasy. #MSWL

As a Southern person, working at a Southern publisher, I'd love to find Southern stories—in everything from contemporary to genre fiction! Particularly BIPOC and/or queer southern stories! #MSWL

In contemporary, I'd like to find sweet, slice-of-life stories, found family and platonic love (queer friend groups!), and stories with a strong sense of place. #MSWL

I'm especially on the lookout for high-concept stories w/ a standout voice, and strong coming of age themes that speak strongly to teen issues, without those issues defining the plot.

In all submissions, I'm prioritizing inclusive, diverse stories and marginalized voices. #MSWL

i'd love a story that adequately reflects what i call as "background app battery drain" IRL. for me it's monitoring my blood sugar. there are countless others (microaggressions come to mind) but i'd like a moment that reveals a constant others may not know goes on #YA #MG #MSWL
