Normally I am not a sports romcom type of person, but as someone who used to fence, I would love to see a romcom centered around fencing #mswl 🤺

#MSWL

Like it could be a Dark Fantasy or a Speculative Thriller, or an Ensemble Bottle Episode Mystery, or a Heisty Puzzle Solver, or a gloebtrotting Adventurous Romp or a Warm & Fuzzy Rom-Com... but critically... whatever the vibe is I want THE MOST VIBES WE CAN HANDLE.

YA:
-BIPOC rom-coms with great depth
-books that pull readers in for the hook(s), but make them stay for the relatable, tear-jerking emotional arcs
-sweeping historical and family dramas
-new adult / first year of college stories
-Gossip Girl-esque thrillers

Aaaaand my #MSWL is here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/trinica-sampson-vera/ Looking forward to reading your amazing queries! 💞

have just updated my #mswl on our website to reflect my ever-growing hunger for com-heavy rom-coms, and clarify a few other bits and pieces, so putting it here for pinning purposes! but as ever, if in doubt, send it my way❤️‍🔥
https://petersfraserdunlop.com/agent/daisy-chandley/

making this a thread of stray #mswl thoughts/updates/niche requests - not such a niche one this time, but despite loving books where people eat each other I also truly do love LOVE, specifically com-heavy-rom coms with a proper Nora Ephron style dryness to them

3. Romance like EVERY SUMMER AFTER. Also, anything to do with past lives, soulmates, time travel, second-chance romance, etc. Light spice. I also like romcoms.

I requested my first full manuscript for a football romcom this weekend and I expect/hope to see more. 👀 #mswl

I closed to queries for a while, but I'm baaaack! A quick #MSWL note to celebrate While kidlit will always have my heart, I'm actively trying to build up the adult side of my list—so if you've got thrillers, romcoms, horror, spec and contemp fiction, I wanna see!

#Adult #MSWL :
- LGBTQ+ romance & diverse casts
- romcoms especially!
- enemies to lovers, slow burn, villain/hero, love triangles
- romantasy!
- psychological & cerebral horror with diversity!
- horror that stems from the real world & paranormal
- social commentary!
