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!

Well, it happened. SO excited to share I’ve joined the amazing team @jenazantian has assembled at Azantian Literary Agency as an associate agent, repping MG, YA, queer adult romance, and nonfiction! Editors, please say hi—I’d love to chat!

And always on the hunt for more queer adult and YA romance! Especially if it has a speculative twist! #mswl

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

Me when I'm in my inbox #MSWL

Queer rom-coms. All the queer rom-coms (but if someone out there has written a sapphic age-gap rom-com, know that’s my favorite) #MSWL

Fast-paced, plot-driven contemporary thrillers—preferably super queer. I’m basic about thrillers. I love the formula. I like Reese’s picks. Just give me propulsive and in-line with the market. #MSWL

And I lowkey would love to find a queer story collection a la Bryan Washington or Anthony Veasna So! #MSWL

Romance! Happy to consider any and all queer and BIPOC stories, would especially love a cozy fantasy with romance, a horror romance, something speculative/five minutes in the future.

Anything that can be comped to Talia Hibbert, Helen Hoang, Emily Henry, etc. #MSWL

An isolated thriller! I eat them up like popcorn!

I'd also love to see a thriller following a queer friend group or found family! Recently enjoyed First Lie Wins.
#MSWL

Queer characters across all genres. I'd love to see more trans femme stories, especially with joy and/or being the center of some adventure or solving a mystery/crime/murder! #mswl

This, but lesbian, is exactly what I want in a thriller #MSWL

-Adventure and/or heist roms (the more bonkers, the better)
-Contemporary romance/rom coms (though it needs to have a strong voice and strong hook)
-Nerdy/fandom romances (comic con, cosplay, fanart/fanfic, D&D, etc.)
-sports roms (particularly BIPOC and/or LGBTQ)

Yes #mswl
