Queer and BIPOC romances! Desperate for more representation in my inbox. I'd love:
#MSWL
-contemporary with a speculative twist.

-Romances that feel like Talia Hibbert, Abby Jimenez, Emily Henry. Think delightful banter, big feels

-Monster F**er romances...

Hi all! I'll be opening my queries for two weeks starting February 1! You can find more about what I'm interested in on the Metamorphsis Website and on my Query page. I look forward to reading your work. #query #WritingCommunity Querytracker.net/query/shanians/shaniansoler

Finally, I'm open to nonfiction for adults and teens! I want to learn something new, discover unique angles on topics I love, and find accessible projects. I'm actively seeking memoirs/narrative; true crime stories; women's, POC, and LGBTQ+ issues; gardening/sustainability; and food content. #MSWL

Still figuring out my romance tastes, but if your manuscript has fake relationship, grumpy/sunshine, enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, or late bloomer tropes, pls send it my way. I also love nerds! Neurodiverse, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ protags/love interests always welcome #MSWL

Tropes and other things I like to see in mysteries/thrillers: spunky girls, amateur detectives, blackmail, dark backstories, old houses, clever twists, libraries, ghosts and the supernatural, locked rooms, #BIPOC and #LGBTQ protagonists, folklore-inspired tales

For YA, I'm open to most topics, and I'm especially seeking these:
-post-Roe repercussions
-the dark side of momfluencing (from the kid's POV)
-contemporaries for the Emma Lord/Rachel Lynn Solomon audience from BIPOC voices
#MSWL

🎉 New Year, new #MSWL ! Here’s what I’m eager to see when I reopen in 2025:

👉 Bold, imaginative, PBs from author-illustrators
👉 Latinx, BIPOC, marginalized author-illustrators
👉 Laugh-out-loud funny PBs—smart, clever humor (no fart books or potty humor plz) (1/4)

Would really love to see something that blends fantasy and murder mystery #mswl

*From BIPOC authors only*

I’m closed to subs through Dec, but I really want to find a kid friendly cookbook from a Latinx or BIPOC author featuring recipes from their culture. Something that adults/kids can do together in the kitchen. If you have this or know someone who does, please msg me ❤️ #MSWL

#mswl

I'm currently most interested in contemporary or deeply researched historical literary/upmarket fiction by BIPOC writers and nonfiction from authors with existing platforms or previous publications (including academics), and I'm closed to kidlit except by referral or request #MSWL

#MSWL

I’m prioritizing BIPOC and queer & trans writers atm! I’m really hunt for
- MG horror & mystery
- YA horror & mystery
- Adult spec fic, gothic horror, horroromance, romantasy
- sister stories
- mother daughter stories
- mermaids
- stories in the PNW, Appalachia, or arctic!
- dual timelines

Something about fall is putting me in a romantic mood. In addition to my usual list, I'm now craving Romance on my #mswl Contemporary, Historical, Thriller, Suspense, Horror--I'd love them in my inbox please! (Please remember I'm not taking Romantasy)(LGBT, POC, disabled is a +)

I have a number of brilliant contemp romance writers on my list, so I am particularly keen to find something different there. Love stories with an underrepresented culture or experience at the centre will be most welcome. BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ writers, I'd love to hear from you!

Ok, agents and authors. It's me! Your friendly, local editor. I'm starting to build my 2026 list. Interested in what I'm looking for? Sure, you are. Here's my #mswl .

Romance! Happy to consider any and all queer and BIPOC stories, would especially love a cozy fantasy with romance, a horror romance, something speculative/five minutes in the future.

Anything that can be comped to Talia Hibbert, Helen Hoang, Emily Henry, etc. #MSWL

-Adventure and/or heist roms (the more bonkers, the better)
-Contemporary romance/rom coms (though it needs to have a strong voice and strong hook)
-Nerdy/fandom romances (comic con, cosplay, fanart/fanfic, D&D, etc.)
-sports roms (particularly BIPOC and/or LGBTQ)

Yes #mswl

I just saw The Watchers and now I'm down bad for the idea of a fae horror but make it queer or poc. Please query me this
