#MSWL Fiction in any space that explores the complicated dynamics of relationships, whether romantic or familial, in high stakes, high pressure situations—like Monsoon Wedding, Mr. And Mr. Smith (the tv series), The Diplomat, and Nobody Wants This.

7/ BOOK-CLUB: Found family, complex female relationships, and stories of reinvention. A strong hook, rich settings, and high stakes. A tight timeframe with elements of mystery or romance. Give me an epic love story between best friends, a charater-driven mystery. Celeste Ng, Brit Bennett, Liz Moore.

This year, I would especially love to find a grounded fantasy that comps to EMILY WILDE'S ENCYCLOPAEDIA OF FAERIES, which has been my favorite series of the past couple years.

Hooky grounded magic, delectable characters and a romance to die for, cozy vibes that escalate into high stakes! #MSWL

#MSWL : Thriller rom-com? Mystery rom-com? Say less. High stakes, sharp banter, and just enough danger to make the romance hit harder?! If your book feels like a heist, a scandal, or a crime gone delightfully off the rails with kissing? Yes. 🔪💋 #amquerying

A high-drama, high-stakes romance. Crash Landing on Love went triple-platinum at my house. #MSWL

YA: high stakes fantasy with atmospheric setting, a cozy fantasy that makes me laugh and gives me all the feels, a story set in a competitive subculture, and I’m always open to a fresh take on vampires or the “eternal ones” trope.

#MSWL I'm in the mood this weekend to dive into manuscripts with:

🗡️Fantasy with deadly competitions/games and high-stakes

🗡️Rich historical fiction infused with grounded fantasy elements

🗡️Unique retellings

Send them my way if you think we might be a fit! 📚✨

Agents, I'd also love to find my queer cozy fantasy or romantasy I want the low stakes, strong vibes. Or the high stakes and swoonworthy shadow daddies...iykyk #mswl

I would love to do more romantasy. Stories that are steeped in folklore and mythology.

I’d like to see magical academies (think THE MAGICIANS or FOURTH WING), lush world building, and romance with high stakes.

Books that would be for fans of Tamora Pierce are perfect for me.

In sports romance, I want drama and high stakes. Give me Olympians going head-to-head for the Gold Medal, I love actual rivalry. Give me an ex-partner being chosen as the national team’s coach. Give me genderqueers setting fire to these dumb gendered sports.

FOR FICTION, I’m drawn to exceptional writing, high-stakes, tightly plotted stories with momentum, unforgettable characters who leap from the page.

In two days, on Friday July 5th, I will be open for queries. ONLY adult, upmarket/literary/commercial fiction, can be dark and psychological with speculative elements. High stakes, complicated characters, propulsive story lines. Open soon for other genres. #MSWL

On July 5th I will open for queries. For 2 weeks, I am looking for upmarket/literary /commercial fiction, can be dark and psychological with speculative elements. High stakes, complicated characters, propulsive story lines. #MSWL #writersoftwitter #literaryfiction

So….high stakes ENCANTO for adults. Anyone have something like that? #MSWL

Finally touched down in London, thinking that Bologna was SUCH a delight. The enthusiasm for Children’s across the board is so rejuvenating—it’s made me want more YA fantasy and crossover projects. I’m looking for fun, fresh, high-stakes, *clever* projects with a clear voice.

YA & MG:
- I am looking for fast paced, high stakes adventures in all genres!
- fantasy and horror in particular — send me your gothic, psychological, magical tales
- diverse stories & queer romance
- clever, voicey protagonists and villains!

#MSWL I'm a sucker for epic, historical feeling fantasy worlds, but I'd love to see more epic, modern feeling secondary fantasy worlds and worlds that gorgeously blend historical & modern too!

High stakes & romance get my attention well. MG, YA, Adult/New Adult all welcome!

Starting 2024 out with an updated #mswl ! 🥰 Take a look 👇🏽👇🏽

Would love to see more books with dark academia setting/ competitive high stakes, romance and/or magic woven into the plot

(3/7) A spy or heist romance. Think Ally Carter meets Mr and Mrs Smith. High stakes, high intrigue, high glamour and a kick-ass/takes no sh*t protagonist! Morally grey "villains" and "heroes" actively encouraged!
