I just finished Emma Donoghue's LEARNED BY HEART and I am once again asking for historical sapphic yearning YA manuscripts, agent friends!! #MSWL

Have you written a contemporary dark romance? Maybe with one or more morally gray characters? Maybe one or both do things they shouldn’t? (Shocked gasp)

Send it to me please!

Carly Watters #MSWL

Full disclosure: I am close to inbox zero, but I am expecting my wonderful clients to send me 5 books in the next month, so I am not going to open yet to queries.

BUT I did update my #MSWL ! If you think we're a match please query me when I open! I promise I'll give ample notice :)

Here are some of my favorite dystopian novels, which may help you better understand my preferences in the genre! (or help you find your next read!)

Having spent my early teens devouring dystopian novels, the genre will always have my heart. I’m drawn to apocalyptic, Orwellian, cyberpunk, Huxleyan, post-apocalyptic, & steampunk stories + those exploring history, propaganda, romance/thriller elements, & with an Arcane vibe!

"I'm drawn to big, messy feelings and characters screwing up over and over before succeeding."

"Send me historical fiction or nonfiction from underrepresented voices."

I have been craving a YA book with a similar voice to The Princess Diaries. Like, desperately.

If you want better insight into my taste (or are looking for your next read), here are some horror books I’ve thoroughly enjoyed!

Horror of all kinds intrigues me, especially when it’s interweaved with a contemporary, fantasy, folklore, gothic, historical, horrormance, paranormal, psychological, or survival subgenre! I’m also drawn to stories that feature dread, sentient settings & descents into madness

"I'm interested in pop culture histories in the vein of PAPERBACK CRUSH: THE TOTALLY RADICAL HISTORY OF '80s AND '90s TEEN FICTION and THE GREATEST NIGHT IN POP."
