Very specific things I'd love to see
- more adult fantasy/romantasy (something very unique and off the wall and contemporary/grounded)
- MG and YA horror and mystery/thriller
- Academia
- humorous cozy fantasy
- sapphics!

#MSWL

I’m also still eagerly looking for the right romantasy project. The market is very saturated right now so it’s important to think about what makes your book stand out—maybe an x meets y layered hook, etc. #mswl

Onto the #mswl ! This fall, for FICTION, I'm open to MOST THINGS! Surprise me! #amquerying

Agents, I'd also love to find my queer cozy fantasy or romantasy I want the low stakes, strong vibes. Or the high stakes and swoonworthy shadow daddies...iykyk #mswl

I also want to see cozier romantasy, where magic is woven into smaller aspects. Think kitchen and garden witches that brew intention into their hobbies.

I would love to do more romantasy. Stories that are steeped in folklore and mythology.

I’d like to see magical academies (think THE MAGICIANS or FOURTH WING), lush world building, and romance with high stakes.

Books that would be for fans of Tamora Pierce are perfect for me.

I only acquire in the adult space, to break down our imprints, I’m looking for the following:

Crooked Lane:
Thrillers, historical mysteries, cozy mysteries, and horror.

Alcove Press:
Historical fiction, speculative fiction and magical realism, bookclub fiction, and romantasy.

ADULT

I’m primarily looking for romance, specifically:

-Romance with a spec twist (witches, ghosts, magic, timeloops, love spells, soulmates, etc.)
-Romantasy (but the worldbuilding needs to feel very grounded and accessible with the focus more on the “rom” than the “fantasy”)

still on a hiatus from this app but wanted to share my current #mswl for my agent friends😊here's what i'm excited about rn:

- genre fiction from POC
- historical fantasy & alt history
- gothic fiction
- romantasy
- mystery-thriller
- horror

*agented subs only*

6) What I call speculative romance: e.g. romance in our world that also has a bit of magic. Think Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches.

7) Fantasy romance where the story is equal parts both, and the world and fantasy plot enhances the romance and vice versa.

I have another thread with my #mswl pinned on my profile so you can review that but generally speaking I am open to fantasy and romantasy right now!

Looking for Roaring Twenties and Regency era Romantasy! Also looking for picture books about parents WFH, books about being a community helper, and fully illustrated picture books. Kristina is particularly scouting works from authors/illustrators of indigenous or latiné descent.

🧵Surprise! Focused Artists CEO Kristina Sutton Lennon is open to queries through June 16, 2024. Fiction
