Adult Fiction- writing style preferences vary from literary/more prose driven, to voicey and fast paced. However, I'm not a good fit for contemporary and lean heavily towards speculative, witchy, horror, SFF/F. I'm getting alot of LGBTQIA contemporary romances which I love as a reader, but don't rep.

For the next two weeks we are open to adult upmarket/literary/commercial fiction (speculative elements including horror, etc. are OK!) and then we'll open to remaining genres like SFF

as I’m opening to queries in a few days, it’s time for a proper #mswl . I’m looking for YA/adult SFFH and serious trade non-fic in the broad history/sociology space. I’m very keen on the literary end of genre, as well as commercial stories that say something about society. 1/?

also!

- indigenous writers of all genres, especially in horror, romcom, thrillers, upmarket & litfic
- novels with biting humor and tons of heart a la THE RACHEL INCIDENT and GOOD MATERIAL
- anything that feels like a warm hug, a sweater knitted with love, a hot cup of tea (& still has some bite!)

I'm currently most interested in contemporary or deeply researched historical literary/upmarket fiction by BIPOC writers and nonfiction from authors with existing platforms or previous publications (including academics), and I'm closed to kidlit except by referral or request #MSWL
