My bookshelf is 50% character-driven sff/speculative/spooky, 50% realistic contemporary/historical (coming-of-age romance, mystery/thriller, action-adventure, and verse novels), mostly by BIPOC, queer, or traditionally underrepresented folks, & my taste very much reflects that.

#MSWL Agents, I've been seeing some fantastic YA sff subs. I'll never say no to sff that captures my heart, but I'm also on the lookout for gorgeously written verse/prose, layered coming-of-age (historical or contemp) esp if it weaves in queer romance and/or mystery/suspense.

I just played/finished Venba (takes less than 90min, maybe less than an hour?)

A/YA Cozy Fantasy or YA Contemporary like this please #MSWL

#MSWL Contemporary YA and MG fiction.

I am now a member of #SCBWI , I am eager to see some picture books from author/illustrators and contemporary MG. #AmQuerying #AmAgenting #KidLit #WritingCommunity - I'll soon update my #MSWL on all my pages.

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

GN #MSWL : If any creators/agents have a project w/a similar vibe as this, I'd love to see it! I'm also on the lookout for coming-of-gender stories; queer romance; contemporary like Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up.., This One Summer, Go with the Flow; absurdly funny MG/early readers

On the contemporary side, I want a sharp, provocative story like LUSTER and a character study equal parts hilarious and heart-piercing, as in WRITERS AND LOVERS and STANDARD DEVIATION.

“I am looking for compelling novels by contemporary literary fiction writers.”

#MSWL @greyhausagency Looking for traditional contemporary romances. If your story is for a series line, make sure identify how it fits that line. If it is a single title, stories should have characters that all readers can connect to with a strong conflict and a HEA.

Hi #amquerying writers! I've just updated my #MSWL with a few more specific areas in which I'm looking to grow my list - I'd LOVE to see more in the romance space (both contemp and fantasy), & would love a cozy fantasy! Submission details & full page here:
