YA:
- Contemp Romance w/ messy relationships like Who I Was With Her or Only Mostly Devastated.
- SciFi where teens are in charge. Add a queer romance to the story, and you're golden. Think The Darkness Outside Us.
-Horror, horror, horror! Creepy, gory, scary AF! (3/6) #mswl

Adult:
- RomComs think Get a Life, Chloe Brown or By Any Other Name (heat value can be low to steamy).
- Historical Romance not set in Regency Era. Bonus points if features BIPOC or Queer main characters.
- Hard SciFi in the vein of Hail Mary or All Systems Red.

Our Flag Means Death has awaken in me a deep desire for a queer pirate YA romance 🏴‍☠️🦜 Please send me high seas shenanigans as I desperately need more #mswl

Send me your f/f romcoms, you cowards!

And by cowards I mean brilliant authors I desperately want to hear from 😂 #mswl

More queer stories please! All the queer stories! Romance does not need to be an element of the story. It can be, but it isn’t required. #MSWL

My favorite comfort food romcom is Crazy Stupid Love, and I've been sick so I'm rewatching for the 110th time. If anyone captures the absolutely Shakespearean buffoonery of this film but in a novel (and queer probably) I want it very badly, send it to me, do it. #mswl

BookFriends!

Here's another #MSWL tweet.

From @AgentJessicaA:

"I’d love to find some historical romance to complement my Bridgerton marathon. Something like THE LADY’S GUIDE TO CELESTIAL MECHANICS or THE WISTERIA SOCIETY OF LADY SCOUNDRELS. Bonus points for queer characters."

How’s this for an #MSWL premise: YA romcom. Talented queer girl becomes trainee to be around girls and delay marriage by becoming a star. Right before her debut, she meets the love she’s always dreamed of, and has to choose between becoming a star or living her true dream life.

Would LOVE to see more queer romance in my inbox 👀❤️ #MSWL

-- OUR FLAG MEANS DEATH -- I'd love a queer take on pirates in the adult upmarket/book club space, in the vein of OUTLAWED but out at sea. I'd also be interested in this for YA or MG graphic novel!

Please more BIPOC and Trans voices, from anywhere in the world! #MSWL
