-I have several cozy fantasy/science fiction on my list already so I'm looking for diverse cozy SFF this time. I'd love a queer cozy or BIPOC cozy fantasy or science fiction with a great romance. I usually prefer romance secondary to plot, not the whole plot. #MSWL

Query opening update and #MSWL ✨

- I love historical fiction and I love learning about something new! Bonus points if it’s pre 1800s, not white, and has gay stuff

- Anything, and I mean anything, that could use the words “toxic queer romance” in its summary. The more depraved, the better. Give me the ugly emotions

I listened to WE SOLVE MURDERS by @richardosman1 .bsky.social, narrated by Nicola Walker.

I honestly adored it. Loved it more than TMC. I'd love to rep something like it but by a queer/bipoc/disabled author.

Here is my updated #MSWL for winter 2025. I will be opening back up to unsolicited queries at the end of the month. If I’ve requested materials from you please send me a DM for my query link.

Some more random #MSWL wants...

LGBTQIA+ books written by LGBTQIA+ authors, especially in the romance department

Historical fiction with a fun twist from under represented voices of the time

More WF that's actually about women supporting women in healthy ways

Less well known women's sports

#MSWL

-Isolated thrillers. Give me your ocean settings

-Anything that comps to SADIE, GOOD GIRL'S GUIDE TO MURDER, VERA WONG, NO EXIT. THE WRITING RETREAT

I'd love to queer up the commercial horror and thriller space even more! Agents, let's talk!

Queer and BIPOC romances! Desperate for more representation in my inbox. I'd love:
#MSWL
-contemporary with a speculative twist.

-Romances that feel like Talia Hibbert, Abby Jimenez, Emily Henry. Think delightful banter, big feels

-Monster F**er romances...

YA: Romance! I love forbidden/star crossed lovers, forced proximity, enemies/rivals to lovers and low stakes feel-good love stories including queer stories! Open to both contemporary, romantasy, fantasy subplots, the works!

Hi all! I'll be opening my queries for two weeks starting February 1! You can find more about what I'm interested in on the Metamorphsis Website and on my Query page. I look forward to reading your work. #query #WritingCommunity Querytracker.net/query/shanians/shaniansoler

Finally, I'm open to nonfiction for adults and teens! I want to learn something new, discover unique angles on topics I love, and find accessible projects. I'm actively seeking memoirs/narrative; true crime stories; women's, POC, and LGBTQ+ issues; gardening/sustainability; and food content. #MSWL

Still figuring out my romance tastes, but if your manuscript has fake relationship, grumpy/sunshine, enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, or late bloomer tropes, pls send it my way. I also love nerds! Neurodiverse, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ protags/love interests always welcome #MSWL

Tropes and other things I like to see in mysteries/thrillers: spunky girls, amateur detectives, blackmail, dark backstories, old houses, clever twists, libraries, ghosts and the supernatural, locked rooms, #BIPOC and #LGBTQ protagonists, folklore-inspired tales

Specific #MSWL request: Can somebody pleaaase send me a high-heat romantasy on the kinky side of things? Not dark. Just sex-positive and queer-friendly (gender essentialist language is a big no for me) high-heat in a fantasy/paranormal setting.

My taste runs towards the atmospheric and character-driven, and I love stories with a strong sense of emotional tension.
Please send me all the queer/disabled/author of colour stories - and I’m keen to represent writers who write in English as a second language. 2/?

Also #MSWL If anyone is querying an Adult feminist dystopian or a MG that feels like a true crime documentary, please comment so I can drop you a direct query link. As always— queer and marginalized voices welcome

Adding that I'm still so hungry for pacey lesbian thriller, especially anything that can be described as Master of the House but lesbian. If that's your book, let me know. 👀
