We are closing to queries at @LCSLiterary on November 15, 2024.
When we re-open I will have a new #MSWL . I will be primarily seeking adult - women's , historical , commercial, book club, upmarket/literary fiction, psychological suspense, thrillers - and YA contemporary Fiction.

TLDR: satirical novels about high society; grounded speculative fiction; sweeping family sagas; upmarket suspense & thriller; voice-driven contemporary fiction; postcolonial fiction; global stories; social & political critiques; stories exploring love, loss, grief, nature of time

Something about fall is putting me in a romantic mood. In addition to my usual list, I'm now craving Romance on my #mswl Contemporary, Historical, Thriller, Suspense, Horror--I'd love them in my inbox please! (Please remember I'm not taking Romantasy)(LGBT, POC, disabled is a +)

FYI: I am opening to #submissions tomorrow! I am particularly keen to find more MG and YA, as well as new voices in the romance space (both romantasy and contemporary) for new adult/adult readers. Bio here:

#MSWL yes pls

#MSWL Literary agents @ElisaHouot and @marisacleveland are looking for another YA author to sign together! If you have a sparkling romance or an edgy contemporary, please query them through Elisa's Query Manager!

For contemporary stories, I am looking for confident high-concept speculative novels à la Ann Liang. I am very selective in the YA realistic space, and I’m looking for super commercial, funny, and well-plotted.

Ok, agents and authors. It's me! Your friendly, local editor. I'm starting to build my 2026 list. Interested in what I'm looking for? Sure, you are. Here's my #mswl .

Specific #MSWL :

I’d love a snappy, highly commercial YA series with a sticky hook and a memorable/endearing main character; probably contemporary (any subgenre), comparable to what GALLAGHER GIRLS was but with an unrelated premise.

#MSWL My current Wishlist:

📍Contemporary novels centred around a courtroom drama/legal setting
📍Stories about female friendships, especially millennials
📍High concept crime, historical, bookclub, and grounded fantasy

#MSWL

Some more #MSWL items for me:

•Middle grade science fiction like Insignia by S.J. Kincaid, which I loved

•Epistolary fiction like Several People Are Typing by Calvin Kasulke

•Lyrical, literary, lush contemporary (or contemporary-ish) YA—again, Jandy Nelson comes to mind

✨Adult MSWL✨

I would love to see horror or projects with series potential. Though my adult list is very full at the moment and is where I’m least looking to grow at the moment!
