And now this is on my #MSWL when I reopen

Just a reminder that the box will be closing after the 18th! My MSWL is pinned and on the Belcastro website!

I have gotten so many amazing queries and I am taking my time on reading each and every one. My maybe pile is way too big 😅 but I do promise a response to every query!

I have another SUPER specific #mswl item... I would love submissions from people who have experience living near the Appalachian mountains. I have an idea in mind, but would also love to read any novels set in this area!

(Yes, I've ended up on Appalachian Tiktok) #amwriting

#MSWL time!

I'd love to see mysteries/thrillers (literary or upmarket) with deep, psychological interiority that shows voice and personality. Think Searcher by Tana French, or Birnam Wood by Eleanor Catton.
Extra interested if there's a faux/red-flag love interest involved.

Working on finding projects with these vibes on my #MSWL

I think I need a #mswl adult royals book that pulls me in like these Kate conspiracies. I’ve fallen down the royal family rabbit hole and I’m ok with that 😅.

I'd love to see a romance novel that's spooky or a little off kilter or dark. Something like MORBIDLY YOURS or LOVE IN THE TIME OF SERIAL KILLERS. #mswl

I've responded to all queries (not including partial/full requests) and am re-opening my inbox on 4/1. I'm so excited to what you've all been writing these days!

To ramp up, I'm going to share some #MSWL details over the next couple weeks. . . stay tuned!

I know I'm late to the party, but I've just finished One Day, and it wrecked me. And so, naturally, I want more of this in my inbox! Sweeping romance with big feelings, true connection(!), and maybe some tears thrown in. #mswl

HAUNTED MANSION (both of them) are two of my favorite movies and if you have anything like it, I'd love to see it. #mswl

This vibe, but sapphic #mswl 🌿

The audiobook for Our Wives Under the Sea may have altered my brain chemistry (and my #mswl )

#mswl I’m begging

hyper specific #MSWL : an alternate history of the Galapagos Baroness from her POV

#MSWL i'd love to see a modern riff on Bell, Book and Candle!

witches and magic are in

I love the relationships in the Holroyd family. You could do a book on Gill, one on brother Nicky, one on the eccentric and delightful aunt.

create a WHOLE world b/t humans+ magic
