#MSWL

So #MSWL ahead of reopening on Monday 6/1: contemporary Romances and rom-coms! I have been thinking about the manuscripts I have read lately and loved or the books I have read lately and loved, and this was what they all had in common: they were all romantic books. So gimme!!

I'd love to see LGBTQ+ YA/NA romcoms in my query box. LEAH ON THE OFFBEAT or something like RWRB! I want to laugh, cry, and fall in love. Like anything with the same relationship as David and Patrick. 😍😍😍 #mswl

I would love to see more Adult Rom Com submissions in my inbox! Here are a few of my favorites. #MSWL

Throwing this out there, I would LOVE to find some diverse, inclusive rom-coms in my agent life.

Especially anything that's genre-blending, like The Plus One by Sarah Archer (robot engineer builds a wedding date).

Some of my current clients are writing them. Gimme more. #MSWL

On my #MSWL is romcom

If you send me your meet cute scene today I will read right away >>>

YA rom coms in the vein of WHEN DIMPLE MET RISHI by Sandhya Menon #MSWL

So what do I want to find, you may ask? Well #amagenting, #amwriting peeps, bring me your fiction right now. Romcom/chick lit, humor, feel-good, queer lit, ya and ya-crossover...hockey/sports. Sports romance. Ya fantasy and romcom. Really want to find queer teen lit. #mswl.

“Young Adult: LGBTQ+ rom com, psychological horror, a new take on vampires, a girl in a rock band, an eerie mystery.” @msmariavicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation

I started watching The Baker and the Beauty and just a quick note, I would die for an adult rom-com like this in my query box. #MSWL.

YOUNG ADULT:
- Literary, character-driven stories featuring diverse ensembles and strong points of view
- Joyful romcoms about marginalized protagonists
- Light fantasy / speculative fiction

#MSWL

a warm-weather update to my #MSWL: i'm really tapping into my love for funny, steamy, racially diverse rom-coms and would love to see more in my inbox! 🥰

Another one of my favorite tropes is enemies to lovers. I'd love to acquire a romcom series with the feel of the London Celebrities books by @_LucyParker #MSWL

I WANT YA ROM-COMs. #MSWL.
I loved The Silent Patient, 8 Perfect Murders, Wann wird es endlich wieder so wie es nie war, Die Therapie, Drive Through Dreams.

Rounding up a few #mswl tweets that I will now think of as my official #QuarantineMSWL (1/?)

I cannot WAIT to read Emily Henry's BEACH READ, so this is your reminder that if you've got a laugh-out-loud rom-com, give me a shout! #MSWL

I still really really really want a LatinX YA RomCom! #mswl

I really want a GREAT YA rom-com. Query me! #MSWL YES, YOU HEARD ME! I'd REALLY love a fantabulous YA rom-com. ❤😎🙂
