Do you write #HistoricalRomance ? Find out what the @HarlequinBooks Historical editors are looking for! bit.ly/2S96kX0There's a lot of overlap here with my own historical romance #mswl. I have been begging for what feels like forever for a Regency centered on South Asian protags. And a 1950s historical romance? *swoons*

Currently acquiring: Regency, Victorian, and Highlander historical romances full of humor, heart, and heat. I would love to see a diverse cast that includes POC, preferably #ownvoices, set in one of these time periods. #MSWL entangledpublishing.submittable.com/submit/ ATTN: Heather

I hope that the biggest takeaway from yesterday in Romancelandia is that romance readers are clearly well-versed in the diversity of the Regency, are excited to see more of it, and trad pubs should be acquiring diverse historicals written by POC/marginalized authors.YES!!! And on that thought, I definitely want to see more diverse Regency, Gregorian, and Victorian YA in my inbox. I took three different Jane Austen classes in college--I have a mighty need #mswl

In romance: I love quirky characters and am far more likely to be drawn to a story that makes me laugh than one that makes me cry. In historical, I really would love to see some diverse stories. Give me South Asians falling in love in London during the Regency, for example. #mswl

Historical romance with diverse heroes/heroines. I want to know about the Regency peeps of African/Indian/Jewish (&more!) descent. #MSWLWhat she said! Regency romances with diversity - bonus points for settings outside of England. #MSWL

Now for some specifics! In romance, I am particularly interested in historical romances, and would love to see more diversity in my submissions. Let's see the Regency, Victorian, and Edwardian periods through different eyes.

#mswl Regency Romance. Fresh. Or different. Or edgy. Or funny. With a twist! Lastly, traditional always works.

There were South Asians in London during the Regency period. I'd like to read their stories. Mystery, romance, HistFic, NF. #MSWL
