And if you have made it this far in my fan girling, you might have noticed that the genres I DON'T HAVE. Which is why I am looking for:

-Graphic Novels
-Nonfiction
-Historical Fiction
-Magical Realism

In addition to my fantasy and contemporary list. #MSWL

So with my #MSWL in fantasy I am looking for these elements:
-amazing writing
-fantastic world building
-complex, rounded characters
-high concept plots or explorations of tropes froma new angle

This is also on my #MSWL! I would love to see fantasy with characters already in love, older, and relying on each other while kicking ass and navigating all the challenges of a SFF world. Dynamic dialogue and playful banter please!

Seeking: Adult: thrillers, psychological suspense, SFF, contemporary romance, rom-com, & mysteries. YA: thrillers, psychological suspense, SFF, horror, mysteries, historical, & contemporary. MG: SFF, action/adventure, mysteries, contemporary, horror, & humor. #diversity #MSWL

I’m adding something to my #MSWL: MIDDLE GRADE FICTION!!! I’m seeking MG: fantasy, sci-fi, action/adventure, mystery, contemporary, horror, and humor. Send query and 1st 5 pages to: querylynnette (at) theseymouragency (dot) com. #amquerying #amwriting #MiddleGrade

Co-signing. Show me characters falling in love for the fourth time, with all the warts, while quietly and competently figuring out the galactic war/revolution/dystopia. #MSWL

#MSWL mid-age or older protags in a long-term romantic relationship. One that feels lived in, hard-earned, three-dimensional. There are so many uniquely awesome & stressful situations an SFF world— I want to see the ups & downs of getting into them w/ a longtime love by your side

Oh I'll read the heck out of this one!

And it seems like a good time to remind #amquerying Twitter that high on my #MSWL for SFF/spec fic are stories set in Korea and/or that draw on Korean myth and history

👀🇰🇷📖🧙🏼‍♀️💫

2/ & show me characters who must navigate these situations using cunning, courage, & wit. Let these characters come from a unique perspective, bringing unique talents & solutions not yet seen in fantasy. Show me the full potential of fantasy cultures & conflicts. #MSWL

#MSWL - Adult fantasy featuring new & unexpected settings, richly developed worlds, thoroughly explored relationships between different areas of society including race, class, occupation, etc. Give me situations with no easy solution, solutions with consequences... 1/

#MSWL I need more girls falling in love with girls in my inbox. THERE'S NOT ENOUGH! (there will never be enough) Give me your W|W Romcoms, W|W graphic novels, W|W fantasy

Oh I would LOVE a gorgeous fantasy romance. With a giant beautiful medieval wedding. #MSWL

The graphic novels is so hard. I had one I loved but I had to pass on because it wasn't ready, but I am looking for authentic dialogue and a story that feels original and different. Fantasy is where I lean towards on these, but open to see anything. #MSWL

For YA fantasy, I am hear queens/assassins/con artist are a harder sell, so give fantasy that is new and different. Like I wanted THE 100 in fantasy. Or the Cold War in fantasy. Rethink the genre. #MSWL

So my list priorities are as follows:

-YA/MG Historical Fiction
-YA Fantasy
- YA Romance
-YA and MG Graphic Novels
-MG Narrative Non-fiction
-YA and MG Contemporary Fiction

“Fantasy (urban or otherwise) dealing with the diaspora of a magical community—how does the magic change/thrive?” @kurestinarmada #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

I want a fantasy that feels like THE 100. #MSWL

When I open to queries again in September, I hope to continue receiving YA Fantasy (because I love it) but I also hope I see more

☻ Middle Grade Fantasy
☻ YA Contemporary
☻ Adult SFF
☻ Adult Psych Thrillers
