I am looking for upmarket or literary speculative fiction like STATION ELEVEN, but I'm not right for straight fantasy or SFF. #MSWL So yes, I might be right for this, but I would only know if I read the query.

While #ownvoices and #diversebooks have caught on in YA, I'm still struggling to see it in adult and, frankly, that's what I want more of. #MSWL My target genres right now are: literary & upmarket fiction, mystery, suspense, thriller, & women's fiction.

A more abstract #MSWL, but I loved this story about the last Blockbusters of Alaska and the role they played in their communities. I'd love to see a literary novel, YA or adult, that focuses on these social shifts due to technology.

I desperately need upmarket, literary or women's fiction that takes a close look at the opioid epidemic. Maybe a person dealing with a child, spouse, or other who is addicted? Or a family saga ala Bull Mountain #MSWL

Where are the sexy literary novels? I'm reading one now that purports itself as "erotic" and it's just...not. (But shout out to The Pisces, which I loved) #MSWL

So now that I am ready to re-open let's talk #MSWL and what I am looking for in manuscripts for the rest of 2018. Let's do this!

I am looking for writers that are in the vein of some of my absolute favorites. @kitfrick's writing is stunning. @lauraeweymouth's writing was so beautiful. Too many to tag, but I am looking for that literary beauty in a commercial hook feel. #MSWL

And, as always, #MSWL utterly gripping literary or upmarket commercial adult fiction - be in speculative or historical or contemporary - with strong stories rooted in secrets.
