Sorry, romance like EVERY SUMMER AFTER (not romcom!). (Although I also love romcoms!) #MSWL

I closed to queries for a while, but I'm baaaack! A quick #MSWL note to celebrate While kidlit will always have my heart, I'm actively trying to build up the adult side of my list—so if you've got thrillers, romcoms, horror, spec and contemp fiction, I wanna see!

#Adult #MSWL :
- LGBTQ+ romance & diverse casts
- romcoms especially!
- enemies to lovers, slow burn, villain/hero, love triangles
- romantasy!
- psychological & cerebral horror with diversity!
- horror that stems from the real world & paranormal
- social commentary!
(4/5)

"I want literary fiction that genre blends, commercial fiction that takes me somewhere unknown, and rom coms that make me laugh and swoon."

I would love a great rom-com. I loved No Hard Feelings, Ghosted, and The Lost City. Bridget Jones’s Diary is a forever favorite! I would also love commercial fiction in the vein of Daisy Jones & The Six.

Guess what? @anaiahpress is officially re-open to submissions!!

Honestly the more I think about it, the more I'd like a genre within genre. Like a rom-com set in a dystopian future (🤯). Or a murder mystery. That would be more interesting to me than "teen takes down oppressive futuristic system."

"I want unique, genre-blending romance novels. I wish I had worked on THE PLUS ONE by Sarah Archer or any of Roselle Lim’s breathtaking romantic contemporary fantasy novels. Give me an adult rom com in space, or with magic."

"Since I'm a major softie, please send me your sweet rom coms! I want emotional intelligence, tender ~steamy scenes~, and genuinely funny dialogue."

I'm also still looking for a body positive romcom that can be steamy or cosy, where people's weight isn't the point of the narrative. No weight loss journeys please!

I'd also still love to see more authentic diverse leads more generally across the board in my submissions inbox!

Not sure if you know this about me, but I LOVE 💗 stories. I will ALWAYS be open to adult Romance in my inbox. In ALL subgenres—contemporary, romcom, fantasy, stories w/speculative elements.

But I’m also open to other age groups & genres. Here’s a little more of my #MSWL

"I'm really hungry to find some great rom coms. A few of my clients are working on them, and I'd just love to find some unique, genre-blending romances."

"For rom coms, my taste veers towards genre-blends, i.e., a rom com that's also a family saga or a romcom com that's also a thriller. DIAL A FOR AUNTIES by Jesse Q. Sutanto is a great example and my all-time favorite rom com."

#mswl Gilmore Girls town vibes with protagonists that are witches.
Think cozy setting, loving families, definitely a comfort read.

And witchy romcoms! Think THE EX HEX or PAYBACK’s A WITCH.

🚨 Alice is caught up on queries and will be closing for the summer on 13th July. She's looking for YA romantasy, contemporary romance and comedies, MG comedies and adventure, teen, and YA and MG graphic novels, plus select adult romance.

"In rom coms, my favorite tropes are friends-to-lovers, fake dating, and second chance romance—though I'm open to other tropes! If you have a new twist on these classic tropes, I'd love to take a look."

Literary agents! Who has an #Olympics romance or romcom to sell me for publication in summer '24?? 👀🥰 #MSWL #sportsromance #amediting

"Send me your commercial/upmarket rom coms with exes who cohabitate/co-parent－but where it’s not the exes who get together."

I'm half watching a show while multitasking, and now I would love to #MSWL an enemies to lovers story, but with an elderly couple, with all the fireworks and fun and issues that go along with life at that age. I'm talking 70/80 year-olds, and I'm talking romcom.
