(Romance continued) Sweep me off my feet please! I’ve been reading romance novels since I was a teenager, so make sure to respect that rules of HEA and give me some good tropey filled romance. #mswl

(Romance continued) I can’t bare to read dated ideals of partnership, relationships, femininity, and masculinity. I DO NOT want books where the characters participate in sexual acts without consent and/or while heavily intoxicated. Consent is key and a requirement.... #mswl
Literary Agent
For Queer Adult Romance novels, I want books with queer protagonists that have distinct personalities and a fast pace. I love nearly any genre, but require that the story is queer, feminist, and body positive... #mswl

In romances, if your characters are infertile, they don't need miracle pregnancy to have a happy ending. Nor does your plus size heroine need to lose a weight, your disabled character be "cured" or your plain character become hot.Let your characters find happiness as they are.
And when you write that story, please consider me. My query box reopens February 1. #MSWL

High on my #MSWL: Romance set in a world like Kim Harrison's Hollows novels, but fun and quirky instead of dark, for the Mystic Line. cityowlpress.com/queries/#mysti…

Agents, under the BIPOC romance umbrella, I would love to see different pairings of interracial/interethnic love, same race relationships, body positivity, characters of every sexuality and gender, & teens with disabilities and disorders. Love between any two humans is beautiful.I want to read these books! #MSWL

Also, I’m forever on the hunt for diverse historical romance set in the Georgian, Regency, and Victorian eras. Hit me up! entangledpublishing.submittable.com/submit/ #mswl #amquerying

I want to acquire a YA regency romance with a diverse cast of characters. Who’s got one? Black historical romance authors are strongly encouraged to query. I’m interested in all angles of that period. #YA #mswl #amwriting

It’s really wild to me that there’s soooo much romance in the fantasy and YA genre but almost none of it is like, a positive long distance relationship? Like I want a romance between a princess and a traveling mapmaker or somethingI was reminded that i can just #MSWL these things haha
Literary Agent
Overall themes I'd like:
- Grey morality
- Small town settings with intricate interpersonal relationships
- Angst
- Soft boys, especially those who can admit feelings
- Slow burn romance
- Enemies to lovers
- Childhood best friends
- Fae (think Holly Black)
Literary Agent
My list is pretty speculative so I'd love more contemporary! Anything that explores platonic and romantic relationships, family, growing up, difficult decisions, etc.

Who’s going to write and query me an historical f/f or f/nb romance? I want the hopeful, penniless spinster to swoon at the dusty riding boots of the embittered, lonely duchesse #MSWL(If you’ve got one, btw, you don’t have to wait for my QM to reopen. I want it 👀)
And who's going to let me bath or @RebeccaPodos for this??? #mswl

Updates! We've got new submissions guidelines and @LitAgentClare and I have updated our wishlists too. Please fill up our inboxes with your brilliant ideas! twitter.com/DA_Childrens/s…More info on our ABOUT US pages, but right now I'd specifically love to find comedy MG, whirlwind romances and tons of scares #MSWL

I will never get bored with enemies-to-lovers or forced proximity romance tropes. Conflict must be high stakes. I want the tension between the couple to be off the charts. #mswl
