I'm hoping for cozy mystery set outside the US and/or diverse. I am open to all Adult Mystery now, but I prefer locked door, cozy, or more traditional mystery over crime stories.

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!

I am also really looking for twisty, wildly intense Thrillers (or thriller-ish). Especially those that examine our social construct like GET OUT.

ESPECIALLY those told from diverse voices.

But I am still relatively new and not burned out by this industry yet... And we are really excited over at Romantic Suspense to find new authors, especially authors writing diverse perspectives, so if you have questions, hit me up! My full wishlist is pinned in my profile.

In all our lines across all subgenres, we are always looking for diversity. We welcome not only ALL authors to submit but all stories with strong writing and diverse characters that reflect the reality of the world we live in.

Fantasy is my first love, but I'd really like to see more diverse fantasy drawing from underrepresented voices/myths/folklore/worlds, etc. I'd love to see some historical fiction/fantasy/alternate history! Gothic/Horror! Spies! Heists!

With so much amazing genre writing out there, I want to share a glimpse of the kind of diverse, smart, and engaging SFFH we’re looking to publish at @Daphne_Press #MSWL #LBF23

Also, can I just say #MSWL 100x over!!! I need a diverse story that is darkly humorous and acerbic but still with a lot of heart.

The Covenant (2006 film) in book form with more diversity.

Forever #MSWL

Long overdue #mswl update! 🚨 I edit novels and novellas, and I’m currently seeking diverse, inclusive, and commercial nightmare fuel for my list! 🔥 Agents, send me the following types of stories that'll keep me up at night:

In honor of #MSWLDay, reposting what’s at the top of my #MSWL … Illustrators/Author-Illustrators:
•Well-thought-out portfolios w/ illustrations representing our diverse world
•An easily-recognizable, signature look
•Images that emit any kind of emotion

4. books about the dynamics of friendship groups—I’d love something YA or MG with the feel of NOW & THEN, but more diverse (Celia Pérez’ STRANGE BIRDS does this really well, eg)

and a sentence that sticks with you. In all genres, James is looking for works that feature diverse, marginalized, and/or underrepresented voices. (3/5) #MSWL
