i'm finally open to queries! check out what I want here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/kati… on #MSWL and query me here: querymanager.com/query/2696

Putting out an #MSWL call for marginalized creators and all of the beautiful intersections therein 🧡

I'd love to see more projects in book club fiction, thrillers, mysteries, suspense, romance, SFF, and horror for middle-grade, YA, & adult readers! Genre blends too!

"Seeking luscious sci-fi and fantasy middle grade like THE GIRL WHO DRANK THE MOON by Kelly Barnhill, and DRAGON PEARL by Yoon Ha Lee."

LISTEN, if anybody out there has a queer regency fantasy full of yearning and secrets and also an HEA that's currently sitting in my QM inbox, PLEASE do let me know #MSWL

We'd also love to see some Caribbean inspired fantasy in both MG and YA! #mswl

i’m *dying* for fantasy (both YA and adult!) right now and still don’t have a novel-in-verse on my list, so PLEASE send my way if you have one!!

i’m so excited to dive back in and see your beautiful work! ♥️✨

for graphic novels, i’m looking for contemporary, fantasy, sci-fi, and horror in a wide variety; both ends of the spectrum are wanted! sweet contemporaries, cozy fantasy—but also dark, twisty SFF and horror that delves into navigating trauma

overall, i will be accepting:

ADULT:
•fantasy
•horror
•contemporary
•romance
•novels-in-verse
•graphic novels

YA:
•fantasy
•horror
•sci-fi
•thriller
•contemporary
•novels-in-verse
•graphic novels

On my #MSWL Any/all of the following:
1. Quirky/dark humor
2. Paranormal crime syndicate
3. Unusual fairy tale retellings with magic
ALWAYS high heat, HEA/HFN, Fast paced, romance in sci-fi or fantasy sub genre. Prefer under 75K words.

- speculative fiction
(I prefer grounded, literary sci-fi + fantasy. no secondary worlds, but rather our world steeped in liminal magic and/or technology. anything creepy, toothy, gritty, strange, something that sends a shiver down your spine.)

#MSWL

Agents, the weather is cooling down and I would love some fantasy romance YA to heat up my inbox! Bonus points if it’s extra steamy 🔥🔥 #mswl

We are also keen to see MG sci-fi and fantasy, and are particularly looking for UK middle grade by creators from historically excluded backgrounds.

Looking forward to reading! #mswl
