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

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

Looking for literary to upmarket fiction and narrative non-fiction that’s ambitious and sticky and can momentarily distract from the world’s horrors but ultimately deepens our relationship with ourselves and fortifies us to engage with and fight for humanity.

The 40 will comprise of adult fiction, mainly, with the odd non-fiction project thrown in. I'll do a more specific MSWL in the coming days ready for when I open up. I will use Query Manager like before and will keep my semi-personalized rejections system.

#MSWL TL;DR:

[3/3] Select narrative nonfiction + memoir. Emphasis on diverse voices across the board (for both fiction + nonfiction).

I am HUNGRY for adult non fiction from expert voices in their field. I'm very, very open to a wide variety of topics (surprise me!), though anything about death, death doulas, menopause, chronic illness, and medical gaslighting is likely to catch my eye.

Some #MSWL -y thoughts about what I’d love to see in my inbox:

•MG about space, fiction or non-fiction! My mom works on glass used in the aerospace industry; I have a lifelong fascination with all things outer space.

•Trans authors!

•Adult queer romance with asexual heroes!
