And finally, though this is less specific... I'm looking for a novel that SURPRISES me! #MSWL

Send me your thrillers or mysteries that feel authentic and bring in the experience, culture, and sense-of-place of less-represented perspectives and new voices. #MSWL

Happy #MSWL day! I represent authors in the Adult, YA, and crossover SFF space. I am always looking for sharp writing, punchy characters, and big emotions. ☺️ Query me!

Having lived in Japan on and off for four years, I would love to find a novel, any genre, having to do with Japan or Japanese culture. Loved Tokyo Ever After, by Emiko Jean, and Fault Lines, by Emily Etani. #MSWL

For #MSWL Day, here are some of the things I'd most love to see in my Query Manager:

Would love to find Extraordinary Attorney Woo in book form, adult or YA.

It's #MSWL day! Here's my latest wish list. 📚

It's #MSWL day today and mine's a little dusty, but currently seeking surprising and fun mainstream novels and mystery/thrillers with iconic women at the forefront!

My #MSWL for Love Inspired Trade includes domestic thriller, rom-com and complex women's fiction. My newly updated profile: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/shan…

I’d love to see a VIDA in the Rom Com genre. And a Romantasy with Spanglish peppered in the text. Or a grittier, less polished BOLD TYPE! #MSWL

If any of these describe your book, I hope to see you in my Query Manager soon! I'm updated on my queries through 1/29 and try to respond as soon as possible😊

I’m not the right fit for: military/police novels, “return to hometown” romances, fantasy, science fiction, most young adult, and WWI/WWII historical fiction.

I’m on the lookout for family sagas, new adult-ish protagonists, and anything that explores the human experience with nuance.

In literary fiction, I’m interested in messy people making tough choices, campus novels, unlikeable narrators (especially women who either gaslight, girlboss, or gatekeep) who may or may not win you over, and atmospheric writing styles.

In historical fiction, I’d prefer stories not set in Western Europe or the USA. Hidden histories and female-led retellings are also up my alley.

Some tweet-sized updates: For book club fiction, I love voice-driven writing, a social commentary that resonates with the current culture, or a critique on the ideals of femininity.

Happy updated #MSWL day! As always, you can find my interests here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/kend…

I'm also looking for:

💃Compelling stories about incredible women, LGBTQIA+ folks, & people of color changing the world

🗡️Jaw-dropping true crime, esp. female serial killers for @crookedlanebks

I love a Murder Book that somehow also feels like a warm hug #MSWL
