#MSWL I love that paranormal romance is making a comeback, and am interested in seeing speculative romance of all stripes. I'm open to both cozy OR the darker end of the spectrum, as long as the stakes are high and immediate.

Some faves: Sangu Mandanna, Ashley Poston, Ali Hazelwood, Lana Harper

I enjoy all manner of horror novels: psychological horror, cosmic horror, folk horror, horror-romance, horror-comedy, ghosts, etc. #MSWL

First up on my #MSWL is a postapocalyptic romance where the romance is just as important to the stakes as the end of the world itself. Bonus points for dark / black humor!

Am also looking for dark romance / horror romance more broadly, but nothing w/ stalker vibes or questionable consent for me.

Fated Hearts (Chinese Drama), Love in Nirvana (Chinese Drama). On the other hand, I really love romance that is soft, adoring, gentle, steady, reliable, loyal, parallel, and passionate. So, like A Walk to Remember, Record of Youth (korean Drama), or The Rational Life (Chinese Drama),+

I’d love fiction with magical realism, historical fiction, contemporary fantasy, romance/romcoms, epic/high fantasy, LitRPG, mystery, or sci‑fi. Blend them? Great. Fantasy + mystery? Great. Magical realism + historical? Great. Set in Latin America, Africa, Asia, or about diaspora lives? Great #MSWL

My heart will always be with any kind of fantasy! All subgenres but I've really been feeling cozy adjacent lately; think cozy but with higher stakes. I'm not looking for pure examples of romantasy with tons of tropes, but I do want romance 1/2 #MSWL

#mswl it would be fun to see a labor organizing romance. maybe they have a professional rivalry at different companies but they connect while trying to unionize their respective workplaces. maybe something else! maybe labor rights in a fantasy setting!

Also same for #MSWL in New Adult as well

#MSWL I am really looking for YA romance/fantasy, horror, and dystopian.

It's #MSWL day and I am open to queries on Monday. Here are some things I am thinking about.

#mswl speculative romance - especially stories that give me fresh takes on magic!

#MSWL More specifically, I'm really hoping to sign an adult SFF book with a disabled protagonist this year, and I'm dying for the next SICK KIDS IN LOVE. I want YA disability romance so, so, so bad!

Happy #MSWL day! I’m an associate agent at Azantian Literary Agency, building my list in YA, queer romance, select nonfiction, and graphic novels for all ages. Query me here!

I'd like to see quirky horror and more serious horror. Think social commentary rather than slasher. Horror with romance--though everyone is looking for that. Feminist horror. Folk lore horror. #MSWL

In YA, I'd love to see comtemporary paranormal romances and mysteries from fresh, underrepresented perspectives à la CEMETERY BOYS, IF I HAVE TO BE HAUNTED, and THESE DEADLY PROPHECIES. Please give me vampires, witches, ghosts, zombies, etc. especially from a unique cultural lens! #MSWL

I'd love to see more cozy fantasy and science fiction with romance. Sweet or medium spicy is good for me. I tend to prefer fantasy-forward rather than romance-forward so sightly more emphasis on the fantasy plot. #MSWL

#MSWL day

1) Gayer, swoonier romance (gay, here, meaning any LGBTQ+ pairing that leans into the queerness of it)

2) Small stories with BIG personal stakes (e.g. TJ Klune esque), preferably with magic but not required if romance

#MSWL I desperately want a spicy dystopian romance post climate apocalypse. Think "The 100" but I want the stories of those left on the ground.

Romance. I love romances and would love to see more (especially queer) romances in my inbox. YES, it has to end in a HEA or HFN--otherwise it's NOT a romance.
Would also love to see things that aren't enemies to lovers. Still open to it just would love to mix it up a little #MSWL
