Craving #mswl

🕯power hungry scholars (I never tire of academic settings)
🕯whimsical cozy fantasies w/ a contemporary feel (romance isn't needed but appreciated)
🕯 fantasy sci-fi blends
🕯 laugh-out-loud fantasy
🕯 sapphic fantasies
🕯 shapeshifters or winged monsters

I represent these genres but I am also not limited to these genres: Historical, Literary, Women’s Fiction, Southern Fiction, Sci-fi, Fantasy, YA, Adventure, Speculative, Inspirational, Thriller. brandyvallance.com / barbarabovaliteraryagency.com #mswl #amquerying

I’m going to really dive back into my queries soon & would love to see more big epic fantasy, adult or YA. I’m talking complex, court intrigue, not romance-forward—I am watching House of the Dragon and reading James Islington, and craving something that scratches that itch #mswl

- speculative fiction
(I prefer grounded, literary sci-fi + fantasy. few 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.)
- steampunk everything

#mswl

I have another thread with my #mswl pinned on my profile so you can review that but generally speaking I am open to fantasy and romantasy right now!

i don't mind a fantasy set up where there's secretly been a magical world operating alongside ours this whole time but there's a portal of some sort, i just can't do it

Stories about royalty are not the only stories. Normal people (& not just people misled to think they're normal people) can have big stories, too. I love my monarchs and heirs, but I'd also love to see more everyday people in extraordinary circumstances. #Fantasy #SciFi #MSWL

Send me your YA!!! I’m keen to find fantasy or a thriller! #mswl

Here is my forever #MSWL - Thane from Mass Effect 2 but in a fantasy setting. That voice. My poor, poor heart.

middle grade — multicultural families, sibling relationships, and lighthearted adventures

Friends, it's been a long time coming, but I can FINALLY announce that my MSWL is live and I'm officially open to queries.

Middle grade fantasies that are set in our world (so low/lighter on the fantasy side), or stories with a meta layer to them a la lemony snicket, detective fiction, and STEM

I am so excited to announce that I am now at Spencerhill Associates! AND I am now open to queries! Head to the Spencerhill website to see what I'm looking for and get your queries in my QueryManager! So excited for this new adventure.

I would love to see this #mswl

Does anyone have recommendations for a cozy fantasy mystery? Also very open to agented YA submissions in that genre!

Folks, I am thrilled to announce that I am FINALLY opening to submissions again in June. I'm looking for my usual #MSWL but especially interested in seeing...
Dark and spicy romance
marginalized voices
Gothic
dark academia
horror
genre-mashups
fantasy 1/

WRITERS! New #MSWL w/ a few changes. Still looking for Adult NF (lifestyle, parenting, sports, current events, etc) and YA/MG/PB, but expanding YA/MG to fantasy and still including dystopian/sci-fi/horror/contemporary. Make me laugh, make me sob! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/shari-maurer/

Genre mashups! Like taking the beats from a romance or women's fiction, and bringing them to a fantasy world. Or the high fantasy tropes and taking them to comic con. This is just one example in the pic, but so many ways to play with this! #MSWL

Then we have poison gardens, herbalist vibes in a fantasy world. I love the idea that the same plants that can cure things can kill. #MSWL
