Now that I’m more situated in 2025, just thought I’d re-share what I’m looking for at my #MSWL link below!

www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/re...

Romances. Rom-coms. FEELINGS!!! Give me love in all its variations.

I've been looking for an ace romcom forvever and I am almost starting to think I will never find it. #MSWL

For adults, I'm on the hunt for hooky commercial fiction and women's fiction, especially with a focus on friendship; thoughtful speculative fiction; swoon-worthy romantic comedies and paranormal romance; and a few accessible, grounded fantasy, romantasy, horror, and science fiction novels. #MSWL

For adult books, I'm mainly seeking horror, rom coms, and any other pacey contemporary story you think I might love!
Here are some of my recent favorites. #MSWL

Funny Story by Emily Henry
The Rachel Incident by Caroline O'Donoghue
The Things We Do to Our Friends by Heather Darwent
The Villa by Rachel Hawkins

For rom-coms, I am looking for sweet, but not predictable. Messy families, messy backgrounds, and messy lives are okay, but I'm not looking for excessive gore or cursing. I love grumpy/sunshine tropes, enemies to lovers, and characters with a redemption arc.

What's at the top of my #MSWL in 2025? Women's Driven Fiction, Book Club Fiction, sweet adult rom-coms, YA, and MG. 🧵#writingcommunity #authorcommunity

🎵It’s TIIIIIIIME! 🎶
I saw a lot of incredible queries in 2024, and my experiment of opening my inbox one week a month worked out well. I was able to stay on top of my inbox and meet my personal goal of getting my response times waaaaaay down. That said, I’m still going through Sept-Dec queries…

Rom-coms! I'm being slightly picky in this area as I have quite a full list, but I am still looking for incredibly tropey, spicy and laugh out loud funny rom-coms!!

I am thrilled to announce I've started as an associate agent @FinePrintLit ! QM 🔗 in replies! So thrilled and grateful for the opportunity. I am open for queries.

Would love a holiday romcom in my inbox but without the usual career woman moves to small town and falls in love with Christmas tree farmer trope

also!

- indigenous writers of all genres, especially in horror, romcom, thrillers, upmarket & litfic
- novels with biting humor and tons of heart a la THE RACHEL INCIDENT and GOOD MATERIAL
- anything that feels like a warm hug, a sweater knitted with love, a hot cup of tea (& still has some bite!)
