I love a good psychological thriller (Gillian Flynn, Ruth Ware, etc.)--would love to find a teen one that plays with unreliable narrators, unexpected plot twists, etc. #MSWL

Oh hey, #MSWL day! I don't take unsolicited subs, but agents, here's what I'm looking for these days...

In YA, I would love to find a near-future sci-fi in the vein of Black Mirror or Orphan Black. I also just saw the film Ex Machina, which asks incredibly fascinating questions about AI. #MSWL

Unusual fantasy creatures (trolls, orcs, goblins, etc.) as the MC in an adventure fantasy. Let humans sit on the sidelines for a bit. #mswl.

Since it's that day, some #MSWL: a YA version of Terrace House? Because I'm a little obsessed right now. #sendhelpcantstopwatching

I'd love to see books featuring strong law enforcement heroes in remote areas who must protect heroines in jeopardy for Harlequin Intrigue. Heart-stopping suspense, compelling backstories, believable plotlines. #ownvoices authors welcome and encouraged #MSWL

Thrilled to see 2019 already trying to make witches happen. Multigenerational, feminist, family-heavy witch book for YA or MG? Do want! #mswl

You all know I love fantasy. Looking for things that feel a bit out of the box now. Contemporary fantasy, maybe? YA urban fantasy? An update on Harry Potter? I don’t know; surprise me. #mswl

And I'm always looking for stories with perennial themes (love, fears, family) that could pop on holiday promotion, like my darling Dad By My Side #MSWL

I sometimes work on a lot of serious stuff, so would love to balance it with an adorable, smart meet-cute romance a la Jennifer Smith or Set it Up <3 #MSWL
