New #MSWL : I want ROMANCE!!! NA and adult contemporary, romcom, and romantasy! My box is full of thrillers and kid lit, so I'm closed to those for the moment. I still want horror, mysteries, and nonfiction projects! Query me: QueryManager.com/QueryLynnetteNLynnetteNovak. #amquerying #writingcommunity

FYI: I am opening to #submissions tomorrow! I am particularly keen to find more MG and YA, as well as new voices in the romance space (both romantasy and contemporary) for new adult/adult readers. Bio here:

Specific #MSWL :

High concept, fun New Adult books that can start to branch out the emerging category with material that has tones comparable to Ally Carter, Stephanie Tromly, Jenny Han but with storylines for a New Adult audience.

General #MSWL 3:

Very commercial books for New Adult and Adult Gen-Z and Millennial audiences that feature sticky hooks and feel like they’re doing something fun, new, and BIGGER with their genre.

As I get ready to open up to queries on Oct. 1st, here's a #MSWL of what I'm looking for! If you're unsure if your project would be a good fit based off of this list, that's okay. Please still consider querying me 😊

*Any fulls I have are still being considered

hi. yes. need.
On the lookout for some spooky (horror or thriller) romance YA / New Adult / Crossover fiction. #MSWL

#MSWL : Adult nonfiction: memoirs & narrative nonfiction, spirituality/New Age, self-help, health/fitness, body/mind/spirit, parenting/family, motivational/inspirational, business, celebrity, lifestyle, pets, psychology, relationships & dating, & true crime. #WritingCommunity 3/3

I'm also looking for adult nonfiction: memoirs & narrative nonfiction, spirituality/New Age, self-help, health/fitness, body/mind/spirit, parenting/family, motivational/inspirational, business, celebrity, lifestyle, pets, psychology, relationships/dating, & true crime. #MSWL 2/2

Some people where wondering about my New Adult #MSWL . Here are few books and shows that would be perfect to comp to (Side note: my Lady Whistledown MSWL would fit in New Adult too). I am looking for complex characters having emotions, propulsive reads, & less for spicy sexy times

A good reminder about how I will be reading the difference between New Adult and Young Adult.

Next up, I am opening to New Adult for the first time. I am looking less for spicy sexy times, and more for that new adult story. So comps for me would be BEGIN AGAIN, YELLOWJACKETS, SADIE, SEX LIVES OF COLLEGE GIRLS, THE MAGICIANS.

These are not every #MSWL item I’ve ever posted (since some of those are broad) but just the specific things in the image below (and also 🧵'd in tweets below), so if you have something that fits an item on this list, feel free to send it my way on the link at the end of this 🧵:

And might as well note when I reopen I'll also be looking for fun, bonkers, glitzy, exciting New Adult contemporary & rom-com w/out speculative elements too!

I'd love to see some really unexpected, out-of-the-box stuff! Nice mashups of the weird and the fun with romance. #MSWL

And I'm also #MSWL looking for other New Adult settings that can have speculative elements thrown in: NA spy stories w/speculative, NA vacation stories with the same, NA movie set stories w/speculative.

Make it cozy, rompy, bonkers, 🔥unexpected🔥, glitzy!! I'm hungry for this.

#MSWL Something I'll be looking for when I reopen are ✨cozy New Adult fantasies✨ that blend fun, speculative elements, & romance w/spice.

I'll be looking for lots of variations including genre mixing, romcoms at magical colleges, contemporaries w/protagonists who have magic...

And for folks wondering what I mean when I say I want "New Adult", I'm specifically looking for projects with a YA-ish tone, protagonists aged ≈20-23, & room for spice. These are your upper college aged protagonists & new grads experiencing adulthood for the first time! #MSWL

Behold! Here's my highly attractive handwriting illustrating the ✨new categories✨ I'll be open to when I reopen to queries!

I'll soon also be looking for New Adult Contemporary, New Adult Thrillers/Mysteries, & New Adult Horror/Horrormance (not too gruesome though!) #MSWL

#MSWL In response to the characters-in-college discourse, I'm *definitely* looking for projects w/characters in college (trade school, etc.)!

Give me college romance, college adventure, college heists, fantasy colleges, colleges in space!! Looking for both upper YA & New Adult!

- genre fiction from POC
- historical fantasy & alt history
