I'm feeling sappy lately and want to read the most unapologetically angsty romantic arcs you've ever seen in children's fiction. I was raised on magical girl stories; you can't scare me. (Please not that I don't rep MG/YA category romance in prose but love a romance subplot in fantasy.) #MSWL

One last #MSWL : romcoms, heavy on the “com.” I’m especially on the lookout for books starring or written by people who have not often been depicted as the romantic lead.

Excited to see more submissions when my inbox reopens in April!

#MSWL looking for a magical realism romance/romcom like Ashley Poston!

Morally gray MCs are my speed in the thriller space

Stories that are feminist and intersectional

Strong romantic arcs, sharp banter, and a joyful tone even when exploring grief or growth

Any retelling “but make it gay” #mswl 6/6

Stories that celebrate love in all its forms

Romance that sweeps me off my feet—but he falls first

On the complete opposite end, I've been craving a cozy sci fi romance! Especially if it has food involved and even more say if it's queer! This could be adult or YA! #mswl

#MSWL
Not open right now, but I hope to be by the end of spring. What I really want to see is #ADULT #crossgenre stories. #Scifi romance, horror romance, humorous #litRPG w/a horror element. Weird, quirky, spicy is okay, just no abuse, rape, or animal death.

#MSWL Adult-only paranormal & urban fantasy with or without romance, please. Slow burn with heart-pounding tension is a major plus! Or brotherhood/sisterhood-type group who would destroy the world if you hurt one of them. Love found families, too. More at

#MSWL I'm over winter and ready for some summer vibes in my reading. Romance? Yes! Horror? Yes! Give me two people falling in love at the beach or bad things happening at summer camp. I'm open!

#MSWL Witches! In all kinds of stories. Cozy, dark, horror, romance, historical, mystery, dual timelines, literally whatever you got, I want to see it.

#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
