Watching my longstanding crush Djokovic in the French Open semifinals, I can't help but wish for a romance set in the world of professional tennis to land in my inbox one day....#MSWL

Please feel free to query me with anything on my broader wishlist, within SFF and romance for YA, NA and Adult.

But these are the books that I will be especially excited by right now, based on what I am missing in my list and/or what makes me clap my hands with glee!

I can't wait to dive back in!

AND FINALLY

8) College-based stories (especially romance, but possibly fantasy too)

9) Romances feat. ace, demi, & trans characters. I always like any flavor of queer, but right now those feel the most urgent stories for me to get into the world.

Think of it like the middle finger to JK.

Haven't yet recovered from reading SHIELD OF SPARROWS and am dying for more monsters, slowburn romance, political intrigue, and all of it. If you have a romantasy that can be comp'd, send it my way 👀 #MSWL #amquerying

If you're querying a YA Dystopian with a strong romance, I'd love to see it. #mswl

UPDATE: I'm currently open to queries for historical romance (yes, that's new!!!), romcom, contemporary romance, dark romance, romantasy, horror, women's fiction, and adult nonfiction. For more deets, go to my #MSWL page:

I would LOVE to see a royal, historical romance. Think Mary, Queen of Scots in Reign--I want THAT. Let's forego the traumatic ending (iykyk), but I'd love to see those elements within a novel. #MSWL

Speaking of tropes, here are some of other favorites (in no particular order...):

- second chance romance
- only one bed :')
- friends to lovers (this is so underrated)
- office romance (I LOVE corporate settings...I'll blame my day job)
- childhood besties to lovers

Romance novels with a fantasy element -- give me witches in every day life, I'd also consider vampires and werewolves (as long as the romance is center stage! This is the most important part)

I will be on vacation from June 13-22, and so that makes sense to me as a trial run for this new method. I'll give as many reminders as I can in the meantime, and I will still only be open to Adult & YA, SFF & romance.

Important: Do not submit to me anything that contains generative AI material.

I'd also like grounded fantasy or magical realism, sci fi, dystopian, paranormal, and select romance. Additionally, I'm seeking contemporary, coming-of-age stories with characters from low-income families and historical fiction featuring historically underrepresented identities.

Just a random #MSWL item - if you have
a romance that can be comped to Taylor Swift’s I Can See You *music video* then I NEED to see it.

I am #opentoqueries until the end of June!
I am looking for:
-Romance (especially paranormal!)
-Coming-of-Age
-LGBT+
-Commercial fiction

A plus if any of the genres above feature Black protagonists, and I love characters that feel ALIVE.

This might be an exception, but I’d be open to a cozy/or high tension contemporary romance that specifically has themes of nature, eco-centric premise, & lovely prose. Give me women in STEAM; Marine Biologists, conservationists, archeologists, park rangers, etc. #MSWL

A classic summer beach read romance but set in a fantasy world #MSWL
