“Paging Romance writers! I’m looking for fun, romantic romps ala CRAZY RICH ASIANS particularly LGBTQ+ romances like RED WHITE AND ROYAL BLUE.” @maureen_moretti psliterary.com/submissions/ #MSWL

#MSWL Valentine's Day is near, and I feel like falling in love.

P.S. I love a good romantic subplot that involves a triangle. As a reader, I usually like to root for the one who is supposedly less attractive, but when you get to know them, they are oh so appealing! Surprise me!

👋🏾 If anyone is working on an #ownvoices f/f adult contemporary romance — I’d love to see it #mswl

I'm redoing my #MSWL so I'll have a more in-depth list soon, but what I really want right now is small town romance. (Remember Finn on Grey's Anatomy, how he took Meredith on a date to birth a horse? Yeah, like that, but in a small town.) I just need some HEA and adorable towns

still craving historical mysteries & historical romances with protagonists of colour! #mswl

Agents, I am starving for something ROMANTIC. Lush writing, big emotions, pining, a love-conquers-all mood: I want to fall in love! #mswl

To celebrate my promotion, I'm updating my #MSWL:

-more queer stories, especially those outside the femme/masc duality. Butch/butch romances! More trans and non-binary characters! Queerness not as a conflict! Not just white queers!

I want a sappy, feel-good romance like RETURN TO ME but YA! #mswl

And my turn to jump on the @bookendslit #MSWL threat. I, too, would love to see more romance (historical and contemp), women’s fiction, and romcoms. #ownvoices a plus but open to all. I also want cookbooks and true crime!

@bookendslit #mswl thread coming at you. I'd love to see more #ownvoices mystery and historical romance, upmarket / book club fiction, character-driven SF/F and horror, and nonfiction of all types!

On the whole, I'm looking for page-turning, escapist, transporting MG and YA fiction. Light on trauma. Big on feelings—humor, romance, friendship, family connections. #MSWL

Oooo and I want books that make me laugh so hard I cry. Especially MG books and romance books.

Give me quiet books too that make you smile at the end (or cry). Especially in YA and Adult spaces. #mswl

Hi #amquerying, I have an urgent #mswl that needs to be addressed...
😉
I am seriously lacking anything and everything in the contemporary fiction space. Romance, Realistic (nonissue books), WF, RomCom, high concept book! I need them in MG, YA, and Adult categories.

somebody write me a lush magical romance between a couple of sentient bookshops

bonus points for
scrappy indies
tea
cute bookshop pets
sappy love letters
nerdy literary easter eggs
#thread #mswl

Romcom (or just rom) mystery in a kooky setting or strange land. Think a contemporary twist on Mary Stewart and Victoria Holt. #MSWL

Contemporary intersectional Latinx voices.
Magical Realism.
Immigrant stories.
Romance.
Historical.
