Ummm. Yes. This is book format. #mswl

Oooo I #mswl the occult bit, too. 😍

I had a wonderful conversation with @nicyulo about dark books and she said something so astute:

‘I like dark, but I like hope. Don't put me in the pit without giving me a ladder!’

This is exactly what I’m looking for! #MSWL times infinity

Agents, I'm dying for more high-concept, heart-in-your-throat, race-through-the-pages YA thrillers and horror by BIPOC authors! I promise, you will make my day!! #MSWL

I'm closing to queries soon for a bit to catch up on subs.

Before I do, I'd love to see some literary-leaning horror (MG, YA, adult) in my inbox. Atmospheric horror, body horror, campy horror, autumnal horror, emotional horror—all of it.

#MSWL #amwriting #writingcommunity

Two weeks since I finished #NeflixKingdom, and I STILL can't stop thinking about it. I'm so in the mood for a YA fantasy with sociopolitical commentary, a lush non-Western historical setting, well-rounded characters, and ZOMBIES. Lots and lots of zombies.

#MSWL #YA

Ok, I'd love to see some really unique occult stuff in my box. Not straight-up witches, but a new spin on the occult. I love things that play with cards (tarot and the likes). Maybe a new spin on a magic library or a creepy forest. I love super dark and super happy fiction. #mswl

as i said, i am very much behind on queries/reading, but as i think this might be a long shot and it's super on my mind right now, i'm gonna put it out into the universe:

#mswl for #ownvoices BIPOC BPD YA 💚

Writers: I want all your quirky coming of age (adult) novels. If it’s slipstream, speculative, weird, dreamy, send it my way. I want witches. I would like to see anything that gets weird in similar ways to Daisy Johnson. If it feels like a punch to my face, great! #mswl

Are you a BIPOC woman writing a high-concept thriller set against an elite or luxurious background? We want to read it! #mswl #WritingCommunity

(3) inspired by Far From the Madding Crowd, I really want THE LOVE SQUARE to become a thing! When there are 4 not 3 involved in a tangle of romance and drama, with whatever mix of genders. There is so much mayhem to be had! Such higher stakes than the triangle of yore! #MSWL #YA

Attention #YA writers! A few things I’d love to see in my inbox:
1) Millennial nuns (I’ll always be waiting for this one)
2) 20th cent. historical set during one of the dictatorships in either Chile or Argentina
And one more that deserves its own tweet....#MSWL #wishlistwednesday

overall: I represent mostly-adult, mostly-fiction across the literary-commercial spectrum from weirdo short stories to "book club" novels to historical fiction to trade romance. I *rarely* read thrillers or hard SFF. You can query me right here: aevitascreative.com/contact/ #MSWL

prose-forward crossover speculative fiction that traffics in "what-if"s, wonder, & what the inimitable @clarebeams calls "the living strangeness of the world" #MSWL

epistolary novels, novels in emails, novels in text messages, novels in standardized tests, novels in recipes... and bonus points *always* for "but make it gay" #MSWL

so-called women's fiction that passes the Bechdel test with flying colors + romance between humans who aren't cis men 👭 #MSWL

gorgeously written literary fiction with a well earned, but mind-boggling twist (see: FATES & FURIES, TRUST EXERCISE, FINGERSMITH) 🤯 #MSWL
