I’m looking for immersive settings, a strong love story, & a high-concept plot. Give me adventure, humor, and swoon-worthy romance—whether it’s a daring quest, a fairy tale reimagining, or a kingdom on the brink of change. I want magic, unforgettable characters, and a romance that feels epic. #MSWL

I love all kinds of fantasy, but I’m especially drawn to stories with the charm of Ella Enchanted and the wit of The Princess Bride. Whether it’s sweeping high fantasy, heartwarming cozy fantasy, or romantic fantasy with rich worldbuilding, #MSWL

Another specific #MSWL project that both Courtney and Cheyenne would like to see:

- a comp to STRANGE PRACTICE by Vivian Shaw. We're OBSESSED. A cozy but urgent plot with a found-family cast of spooky, lovable misfits? Yes, please!

Handspun reopens to queries March 1st--less than 2 weeks away! x

We are thrilled to announce that Literary Agent Apprentice Jaclyn has officially released her MSWL!! 💚✨

Give me haunted malls, sleepover massacres, urban legends coming to life, or slasher villains with a flair for the dramatic. I want addictive, cinematic storytelling w/ fun twists, quippy dialogue, & maybe even a touch of swoony romance. Bonus points for a sapphic lead #MSWL

I’m looking for fast-paced, stylish horror with a pop-culture edge—think Fear Street meets Jennifer’s Body with the energy of a ‘90s teen slasher and the wit of Scream Queens. I love stories with neon-lit danger, campy yet chilling thrills, & protagonists who are as sharp as their eyeliner. #MSWL

Hi, Cheyenne again! Adding to my really specific #MSWL projects:

- Sports romance that centers the love of the sport (and the found family element) just as much as the romance

- a horror book with dinos. please. (think Jurassic Park 3 with more politics.)

✨️ Princess Bride-style banter and swoon-worthy romance
✨ Ella Enchanted vibes w/ adventure, humor, & lighthearted magic
✨ A headstrong heroine who refuses to be a damsel
✨ A dashing, mysterious [x] with a heart of gold
✨ Twists, disguises, & a fairy tale ending
#MSWL

Don’t see your book on my #MSWL ? No worries!

If your work has a powerful and provocative plot with a consistent voice and compelling characters, I’d love to check it out!

For #MSWL , #NF I look for include…

- Big book ideas
- New voices and angles on provocative subjects,
- #Me , Health & wellness (including psychology), & current events with a special angle,
- Compelling narratives that read like fiction! Bonus to narrative #NF of special interest to women!

Happy #MSWL day, #writingcommunity !

I’m looking for…
- Intricately plotted #A fiction & mainstream #YA (any category).
- High concept suspense #T in unusual settings.
- #WF that hooks readers on characters & their stories.
- #R , sexy or not. Bonus for happy endings! #Hs & contemporary are welcome.

Hi, this is Courtney at Handspun Lit participating in #mswl ! I'd love:
- cozy mystery comparable to Richard Osman; fun, feel good, centers a glimpse into unusual lives, character driven.
- high concept women's fiction
- cosy fantasy and sf

Reminder we reopen to queries March 1st!💜

#MSWL : Psychological thrillers. If I don’t start doubting everyone by chapter three, what are we even doing? Bonus points for unreliable narrators, characters making very bad decisions, and at least one scene where I gasp out loud. 🔍😵 #amquerying

Just a reminder, while I am open to all speculative fiction, I'm really looking to fill some *specific* areas:

High heat romantasy
Non-western fantasy
YA + MG horror/horror romance
YA + MG mystery/thriller

(Here are some past visual #MSWL )

*note, I do not represent these books*

#MSWL : Thriller rom-com? Mystery rom-com? Say less. High stakes, sharp banter, and just enough danger to make the romance hit harder?! If your book feels like a heist, a scandal, or a crime gone delightfully off the rails with kissing? Yes. 🔪💋 #amquerying

Handspun is reopening to queries in March! If you have a project similar to anything listed here, please send it my way when we reopen again! Looking forward to reading your amazing projects! :D

Hi, this is Cheyenne at Handspun Lit participating in #mswl ! I'd love:
- epic romantasy that centers historically excluded voices
- horrormance
-indigenous voices and stories (esp. in fantasy and horror)

White Whale project: THE SADDLE CLUB meets RIVALS, something super raunchy and fun

cont.>>

#MSWL : Nonfiction that turns me into that person at dinner parties. Cold War spy games, true crime that makes me triple-check my locks, pop culture deep dives that make people say how do you even know this? If it sends me into a research spiral at 2 AM, I’m in. #amquerying (1/n)

Hi #amquerying friends
While I am open to all speculative fiction, I'm really looking to add more ya & mg horror/thriller/mystery authors to the list 🕷 #MSWL

#MSWL - Just letting you know, I am interested in authors who want to write for all Harlequin lines, specifically contemporary. If you are already at Harlequin feel free to reach out as well.
