Literary / commercial-literary horror - see above…

Graphic novels across the market, but see 🧵 for general themes that I’m interested in.

Literary / commercial-literary romance. Especially if bi / pan / queer. I’m looking for both something sweeping & epic, & something more contemporary.

#MSWL for the most outrageous MG comparable to TROLLS with Princess Poppy and Branch (sunshine + grumpy) vibes, but make it queer with just as much glitter, sparkles, and absurdity. Seriously.

I have a number of brilliant contemp romance writers on my list, so I am particularly keen to find something different there. Love stories with an underrepresented culture or experience at the centre will be most welcome. BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ writers, I'd love to hear from you!

Some #MSWL -y thoughts about what I’d love to see in my inbox:

•MG about space, fiction or non-fiction! My mom works on glass used in the aerospace industry; I have a lifelong fascination with all things outer space.

•Trans authors!

•Adult queer romance with asexual heroes!
