Okay, time to share my #MSWL:
Children's, YA, & Pop Culture Nonfiction are my 🍞&🧈. I love stories of hope and humor, a good rom-com, strong female leads, and magic of all sorts! Big fan of LGBT+ and BIPOC joy. I don't love murder. DM me for query guidelines!

“Calling all writers specializing in laughter and love! I’m now officially accepting submissions for adult rom coms. My sweet spot is big on the com, light to medium on the rom.” @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

“Queer rom coms that represent not just the L and the G in LGBTQQIP2SAA.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

10: Feminist and/or queer romcoms, especially non-idealized depictions of polyamory and t4t romance. I don’t have comps for these! The closest I’ve come is the work of Xan West, parts of the TRANSCENDENT anthologies, and the gender diverse pronoun ed. of CAPRICIOUS.

Reading The Chicken Sisters and now all I want is more women's fic or rom-com about rival restaurants, especially if LGBTQ+ #MSWL

#MSWL Alert - I'd love to see more light, fun, contemporary YA and YA romcoms in my inbox, authors. #Ownvoices a plus. Lots of editors looking for these types of stories right now!

I'd love to see some more #adult projects in my inbox. #speculative, #contemporary, #historical, #romcom--I'm open to almost ANYTHING, but looking for a great hook & great voice. Something that I'll have hard time putting down #mswl #a (still also looking for #MG & #YA)

On my eternal #mswl is a romcom (YA or Adult) where one of the MCs is a Type I diabetic.

This request brought to you by the fact that my new insurance requires prior authorization on the insulin that I’ve been using for over 20 years. So now I get to pay more to stay alive.

Please send me all your YA rom-coms. I love competitions, enemies-to-lovers, and quirky friendships. I’d also love to see more of these stories set outside of the US! #mswl

In young adult:

-Romance! Rom com all the way through "the universe must have put us together" love.

- voice-driven contemporary set against a big, pivotal point in the MC's life

-psychological horror that has something bigger to say about who we are as a society #MSWL 5/7

-locked room mysteries/thrillers with a big cast of characters

- I like historical-set fiction but only if it is a genre I love (horror, rom com, etc) set in a different time period #MSWL 4/7

“Literary fiction that genre blends, commercial fiction that takes me somewhere unknown, and rom-coms that make me laugh and swoon.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

Agents, my #MSWL page is now live! Please check it out to see what we’re looking for @JoyRevBooks !

Oh. Oh my.

One of my authors sent me an adult rom-com with splashes of ✨FANTASY and MAGIC✨.

MG Contemporary

I'm really interested in RomComs right now. I have no rom-com authors on my lineup, and I've been eagerly looking for them. Other than than that, you can check out my #mswl here...taragilbert.com/mswl/

Workplace stories, either drama or comedy (ex: WHISPER NETWORK; THE ASSISTANTS) #MSWL

Ahead of reopening to queries on Monday, here's an updated #MSWL as well as the link to query which will be live from Monday!

Really hungry for some good contemporary romances right now. Romcom, serious, tortured, preferably with a slow burn romance. ♥️
