2025 begins tomorrow, & the #1 thing on my #MSWL is #IndigenousAuthors !! I want it all but by Native American creators! Romance, Mystery, Suspense, Horror, Romantasy! Bonus points if you’re Cherokee, Choctaw, Dakota or Ojibwe! This is not a “token” for me. These tribes are especially close to my 💙.

Am so obsessed with everything about this song so if you have a romance that provides the same emotion and storytelling PLEASE send it my way when I reopen in February. #MSWL

A very specific want for the New Year is a fantasy sports book with romance 🥹 #MSWL

Still going through Query Manager. If I don't find what I'm looking for, here's my 2025 #MSWL . A Thriller comp to NONE OF THIS IS TRUE by @lisajewelluk , a Sapphic Romance comp to @DHawkinsAuthor NOT IN THE PLAN, a PB comp to @BrianGehrlein THE BOOKS OF RULES. #amquerying

👉 Adult suspense, thriller, or horror with unrelenting tension.
👉 Dark, intense stories with twists that leave me breathless.
👉 Genre-blending romance, especially horror romance. Anything that pushes the boundaries of romance while keeping the emotional core intact. (2/4)

…and (even with the QM shutdown) I’m hoping to get back to everyone by the end of the year. So, if you haven’t heard from me yet, thank you for your patience!

As for 2025, here’s an updated #MSWL of what I’d love to see in the inbox. Looking forward to some exciting projects next year!

briar makes her home in a forest of which stories are told of the bloodthirsty monster/vampire who haunts the woods from river to treeline...

no human sacrifices, just a doctor who thinks creating a lil shrine and leaving blood transfer bags is a good idea. doctor/briar romance, maybe? #mswl

As I’m thinking about my #MSWL for when I reopen, I really want some unhinged romance. Like Horror Romance or something with a vigilante “take down the patriarchy” vibe. Maybe a psychological suspense romance, though I’m not sure what that looks like. Maybe something dark or why choose.

Two of my goals for the new year are to try and find more romance and Hispanic/Latinx authors to represent. My #MSWL is linked in my bio. #Queryme !

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
