#MSWL Spring Break Blitz - Contemporary Relationship Focused Stories dlvr.it/T54QMB

I acquire contemporary romance, book club fiction, suspense, thriller, and mystery in the commercial and upmarket space. Would love to see more diverse suspense and thriller in particular!

My client list is filling up, so I will be even more selective this time. My #mswl includes:
- high concept board, picture, and chapter books (new concept easily understood in just a few words)
- YA contemporary like Jenny Han and John Green (commercial but bends a bit literary).

- Queer contemp and historical fiction with gorgeous prose and a strong hook
- Queer and/or BIPOC romance across categories. Steam (in adult) is welcome but not required!
- Cozy mysteries for millennials
- SFF with a strong romantic element, or romance with a strong SFF element

Very much in my romance era. Contemporary romance w/ or w/o spec, rom coms, women’s fiction with romance, cozy fantasy romance, epic fantasy romance, YA and MG romance, horror with romance elements. I want it all so send it to meeeee pls. I wanna squeal and kick my feet #MSWL

A few things I'd love to see in my inbox right now! #MSWL

-romance with a spec twist
-"nerdy"/fandom romance (think: comicons, cosplay, fanart/fanfic, D&D)

Adult/YA Fantasy:

For both here, I really want cozy fantasy. Low stakes 'comfort' reads are huge especially if it's got something to do with food or music! Contemporary and urban fantasies are also great and I love vamps and werewolves! 4/?

I'd love to see more contemporary romance queries. One Day is a good indication of what I'm after, but I could do without a traumatic ending. I always look for a unique hook and a believable relationship. Did I mention a unique hook? I love a unique hook.🙏 #mswl

• YA Contemporary: relatable, everyday situations teens go through. Heartfelt, underlying messages or overall just a fun and feel-good read. Romance plot or self-discovery/coming-of-age. Would love to see a strong theater rom-com!

My top MG genres right now are contemporary, horror, historical fiction, and fantasy. Across all genres, I'm eager to see submissions by authors from underrepresented communities. #mswl
