This is also the one time, every four years, when I’m very interested in sports that aren’t Figure Skating, so you might as well send me those sports romances (No hokey, please. I’ve tried, it’s not for me.) #MSWL

I expect romance, even horror romance, to bring joy. That means a HEA, yes, but also if it’s past campy melodrama, it’s probably too dark for my tastes. And if one of the protagonists dies, it’s women’s fiction/upmarket, and I’m not looking to sign those. #MSWL

Women’s rugby romance. Who’s got it? #mswl

I'm open for Smart Book Club Fiction, Upmarket Women’s Fiction for one week only. I’m looking for: propulsive storylines, rich characters, complex relationships, can have humor and romance (not straight RomComs). Submit here: QueryManager.com/ErinNiumata #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

6. Guys, I'm being super vulnerable here, but? I just can't quit contemporary omegaverse romance. I am determined to sell one to NY. Preferably with a terrible pun on the word Knot in the title.

2. Rockstar romances. And by this, I mean books that actively take place in the music industry, show touring life, shows, songwriting, etc. I don't want wallpaper rockstar romances!

1: Kpop romances. I am so serious here. I have read some great self-pub and trad pubbed kpop romances, BUT I NEED MORE. The world needs more!

Genre-blending narratives
-mysteries/suspense/thrillers set in more sci-fi or fantasy worlds
-speculative romance
-horror elements blended into SFF (cosmic horror-esque)
-surprise me!!

YOUNG ADULT

In YA, I am open to a wide variety of genres. Specifically. I’m looking for:

Romance
-contemporary with a strong hook
-laugh-out-loud romcoms
-speculative twists (timeloops, vampires, magic, ghosts, etc.)

I am also open to the following in Adult, though prefer if they have a strong romantic subplot:
-horror
-mystery (a la Knives Out)
-thriller/suspense
-women’s fiction
-grounded/accessible SFF

I am NOT typically the right fit for historical/regency, medical, Christmas, cowboy/western, or dark romances. I’m also not the right fit for police/detective love interests, and heavy/serious romantic thrillers or suspense.

-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)

ADULT

I’m primarily looking for romance, specifically:

-Romance with a spec twist (witches, ghosts, magic, timeloops, love spells, soulmates, etc.)
-Romantasy (but the worldbuilding needs to feel very grounded and accessible with the focus more on the “rom” than the “fantasy”)

An updated #MSWL thread!

In general, I’m looking for Adult, YA, & MG fiction. I'm drawn to romance, horror, lower SFF, and genre blending & am always looking for more diverse perspectives. I am NOT right for erotica, non-fic, lit fic, or lower MG/chap books.

Specifics below.

I would like to see more queries in my Inbox that offer great escapism, both on the adult as on the YA side: horror, thrillers, mysteries, romance. #MSWL .

On Friday, July 26th I'm open for Smart Book Club Fiction, Upmarket Women’s Fiction for one week only. I’m looking for: propulsive storylines, rich characters, complex relationships, can have humor and romance (not straight RomComs). #MSWL

Not me wondering why this movie my grandma is watching is slaps like I don’t know damn well I love second-chance romance and middle-aged protagonists. Anyway, #MSWL
