My heart will always be with any kind of fantasy! All subgenres but I've really been feeling cozy adjacent lately; think cozy but with higher stakes. I'm not looking for pure examples of romantasy with tons of tropes, but I do want romance 1/2 #MSWL

#MSWL send me locked room and closed circle mysteries, bonus points for fun settings like theaters, trains, weddings, etc! I love thrillers of all kinds, I’m looking for toxic relationships and romantic elements that amplify the tension and mess. I love mess

#MSWL I love fantasies inspired by non-western folklore and cultures, and am on the hunt for C Drama inspired fantasy that captures a sweeping sense of history and high stakes relationships.

Send me all the alternate/parallel history fantasies, Studio Ghibli-esque fantasies, and fresh worldbuilding

Picture books are my guilty pleasure! #MSWL

MORE:
Fun & funny
Instant kid appeal 🤝 Classroom/Library potential
Lots of layers

LESS (or better, none):
Teachy or preachy
Sentimental or nostalgic
Rhyme

Books of my 💛: I WANT MY HAT BACK, SOUL FOOD SUNDAY, PLANTING STORIES... PURA BELPRÉ

#MSWL Looking for civil rights, race, activism, and Black political life in memoir and nonfiction with narrative force. Deeply reported or fiercely lived—but sharp, urgent, and built to matter beyond the moment. Guidelines in reply.

#MSWL My top ask is for clear, inventive hooks! Across genres, I’m looking for big and original premises.

I’m seriously on the hunt for speculative book club fiction. Think grounded stories emotionally with a bit of genre edge!

#mswl it would be fun to see a labor organizing romance. maybe they have a professional rivalry at different companies but they connect while trying to unionize their respective workplaces. maybe something else! maybe labor rights in a fantasy setting!

#mswl weird and beautiful YA where I may not be sure what's really happening, but the storytelling is so skillful I trust that it will take me where I need to go. books like Strange Creatures, Ink Poppy Midnight, When the Moon Was Ours, Among Others, Places No One Knows

A few of my evergreen requests for #mswl day: women who are knights! women with swords and an unhealthy relationship to the concept of chivalry, who maybe haven't done enough introspection on their proximity to power!

Happy #MSWL Day!

I’m an associate agent at P.S. Literary building my list in SFF, horror, mystery/thriller, speculative, and book club fiction. More about my list here, and in the thread below: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/al...

Also this show but make it fantasy YA or NA #MSWL

#MSWL THE AMERICANS but set it in Fantasy

My kingdom for this readalike! #MSWL

Also same for #MSWL in New Adult as well

#MSWL I am really looking for YA romance/fantasy, horror, and dystopian.

#MSWL speculative, brilliantly strange literary fiction; darkly funny, razor-sharp satire about American culture; inventive hard SF and SF/literary crossovers. Books that reject racism, fascism, capitalism, patriarchy, and other -isms. Sadly not interested in fantasy, romance, or YA. Thanks!

#MSWL for a YA dystopian that comps to the 2009 scifi movie TiMER

And everything in this post is still true! #MSWL

It's #MSWL day and I am open to queries on Monday. Here are some things I am thinking about.
