#MSWL I’m most eager to find twisty, intelligent suspense, upmarket book club fiction, women’s fic that explores friendship and multi-generational ties, light magical realism, and historical fiction from a new perspective or setting. I want more diverse/underrepresented voices!

Someone write me a novel about witches learning magic from Tiktok #MSWL

Ok, I'd love to see some really unique occult stuff in my box. Not straight-up witches, but a new spin on the occult. I love things that play with cards (tarot and the likes). Maybe a new spin on a magic library or a creepy forest. I love super dark and super happy fiction. #mswl

i'm really in the mood for sweeping and treacherous contemp fantasy/fantasy/scifi plsssssss. i wanna see a world with advanced magic AND tech. where you at?? #MSWL

For Mystic Owl (City Owl's new imprint) I will be seeking shorter edge-of-your-seat novels involving magic, shifters, or unique paranormal creatures, and fully developed worlds. #MSWL

A magic school book similar to IN OTHER LANDS. Give me your queer and/or POC protags, your questions of morality, how society should function, fluid gender dynamics, your charming creatures, painful growing up, learning to belong swoony romance, and enduring friendships. #MSWL

Black Girl Magic, in every sense #MSWL

Between my new found love for Oumi Janta and binge-watching Betty, I am so ready for some rollerblading/skateboarding YA magic to happen #mswl

I’m also still begging for my King Louis XIV sun king historical court intrigue with maybe a little magic? Historical Fantasy? I could go for just historical too if the writing fits! ❤️ #MSWL

In speculative fiction, I'm looking more for folklore, magical realism, surrealism, cozy fantasy, light fantasy, and atmospheric fantasy with lush world building and gorgeous prose, than traditional high/ epic fantasy. #MSWL

Also included in #PitMad #MSWL are both fiction and nf works with #otherworldly themes such as #astrology #tarot #ghosts #space #magic
but not #SF or Fantasy

Please send query and 3 sample chaps to my attn at dca@doncongdon.com
