Given my current workload, I think I'm going to have to close to queries in January. But before I do, I'd love to acquire a super steamy, dark, why choose romance. *grabby hands* #MSWL #amagenting #writingcommunity

If it is sweeping, romantic, rural, timeless... I'd love to read it.

I am thrilled to announce I've started as an associate agent @FinePrintLit ! QM 🔗 in replies! So thrilled and grateful for the opportunity. I am open for queries.

looking ahead to my holiday reading, here’s a quick #mswl :

- family dramas with a romantic subplot (non-xmas the family stone!)
- lit fic that explores sexuality, relationships (give me a bisexual protagonist pls!)
- romantic thriller, romantic sci fi
- genre mash ups!!

#amquerying #romancelandia

Really hungry for adult/New Adult contemporary romance: sweet, steamy, romcom, poly, why choose, forced proximity, enemies to lovers, slow burn. YA contemporary rom, dark academia, gothic, horror, sf. Adult horror, thriller, psychological. Soft-med fantasy, sf, space opera #MSWL

Adult or YA contemporary romance with a speculative element (think sliding doors, time loops, things like that!) .
#mswl

Literary / commercial-literary horror - see above…

Graphic novels across the market, but see 🧵 for general themes that I’m interested in.

Literary / commercial-literary romance. Especially if bi / pan / queer. I’m looking for both something sweeping & epic, & something more contemporary.

New #MSWL : I want ROMANCE!!! NA and adult contemporary, romcom, and romantasy! My box is full of thrillers and kid lit, so I'm closed to those for the moment. I still want horror, mysteries, and nonfiction projects! Query me: QueryManager.com/QueryLynnetteNLynnetteNovak. #amquerying #writingcommunity

Still looking for romantic fantasy & romantasy #mswl

Would love to see something similar to Beetlejuice and Netflix Wednesday and Dead Boy Detectives.

Whimsy and preferably with a group of friends and light romance. #MSWL

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 +)

FYI: I am opening to #submissions tomorrow! I am particularly keen to find more MG and YA, as well as new voices in the romance space (both romantasy and contemporary) for new adult/adult readers. Bio here:

#MSWL Literary agents @ElisaHouot and @marisacleveland are looking for another YA author to sign together! If you have a sparkling romance or an edgy contemporary, please query them through Elisa's Query Manager!

Other specifics: ABOVE ALL, I prioritize diverse own voices from marginalized communities which is why November is diverse only. I am open to queer romance of all genres and age groups. I would love more author / illustrators for graphic novels and picture books. #MSWL (4/6)

I'm not participating in PitDark, because I have some exciting news! I will be opening to queries for the first week in November (1-7) to diverse own voices ONLY. Starting January 2025, I'll open the first week of every month to everyone. #MSWL (1/6)

In YA SFF: I prefer my romance to be a b-plot, and would love more atmosphere-forward storytelling à la Ava Reid or Axie Oh. Especially interested in folktale/myth-inspired stories from underrepresented voices.

here are some some books I’ve worked on previously if you want an idea of what I dig—romance, deep worldbuilding, political intrigue, underrepresented perspectives all a plus

For adult fiction only (since these genres don't apply to children's): 4. Bookclub/women’s fiction: Voice-driven, high-concept novels across these categories. 5. Romance: Upmarket romance with a great one-line pitch. Happy with spice.
