"In adult fiction, I'm looking for code-breaking or puzzle-solving-based mysteries."

Specific wishes in Young Adult Fiction:
Stories that grapple with faith, sexuality, and/or cultural identity, like Ahmad Saber’s RAMIN ABBAS HAS MAJOR QUESTIONS
Mystery thrillers that keep me turning the page, like Katie Bernet’s BETH IS DEAD (retellings or not)
Stories that broach topics like neurodivergence and sexuality in an authentic way, like Andrew Joseph White’s THE SPIRIT BARES ITS TEETH
Psychological horror that reads like a dark fairy tale, like C.G. Drews’s DON’T LET THE FOREST IN

I‘m officially open to queries! Adult fiction across multiple genres and select nonfiction. For a full list of genres I represent please see my #MSWL at the link in bio or visit the submissions page on my website. Looking forward to reading your work. ✍️📚🌸

Besides manuscripts, my #FridayReads is Katie Bernet's BETH IS DEAD, a contemporary reimagining of LITTLE WOMEN as a murder mystery. I think retellings are making a comeback, but only if they do more inventive things with the source material, like this one. #mswl

I just devoured the second Meihan Booey (THE ENIGMATIC MRS INGRAM) and

1. If you like the Emily Wilde / cozy paranormal / myths minding their own business space, read these ASAP. They're delightful speculative mysteries set in Singapore, I'd read a hundred of them.

2. #MSWL !

"I would love atmospheric and speculative mysteries and thrillers that skew psychological and cerebral with unreliable narrators. Stories where the setting is the main character and characters have full and dynamic backstories!"
Marina Green #MSWL

*whispers* I will finally be opening for queries after almost a year of being closed. My query inbox will be open June 1st-15th and July 1st-15th. If you’re interested in what I’m looking for, check out my new #MSWL #queryingauthors #litagent

"Send in your stylish mysteries and thrillers. I want bold, fun, and clever takes on the genre’s common tropes like KNIVES OUT, KINGSMAN: THE SECRET SERVICE, and WHITE COLLAR. I'm looking for the next THE BIG SLEEP by Raymond Chandler."

In Mystery:

🔎 I’m really looking for a charming sleuth with series potential!

💾 Monster/case of the week that builds to a greater plot

🏡 Harlan Coban pacing & intricacy, but not terrible to women

🐺 True Detective: Night Country, but if they were (correctly) gay

In Romance:

💘 I want, most of all, to fall in love. Make me swoon like a Victorian maiden. 100/10 on the swoon scale.

🌸 Historical romance that explores secret societies, unspoken relationships

🗝️ Romance always has to have another genre for me, be that fantasy, horror, or mystery (or all three!)

Overall, I am seeking:

🗡️ Strong, confident writing with a tinge of darkness

🎓 Compelling voice and convincing authority in fantastical worlds

⚡ Stories dialed up to 11, high genre 🚀

💌 Tropes, done creatively!

🍳 Stories that pull a little of column A and B

🍑 Romance and mystery in *everything*

Growing up in Kentucky means I'm still obsessed with all things Appalachia. If you have a book set there, I'd love to see it. Bonus points for a mystery / crime novel or one with a touch of magic. Or maybe a combination thereof! #mswl

In YA, I love novels with some kind of mystery threaded within, bonus if it's with a speculative twist! I'm on the lookout for anything irresistible, transporting, and propulsive! (2/4)

Excited to finally share my 2026 MSWL which has expanded into Middle Grade, Adult/YA genres for Upmarket Literary Fiction, Romance, Soft Sci-fi, and more. 🫶🤍✨ #MSWL
