“I read widely in YA, and enjoy just about every genre in it. I love moving contemporary reads, thrilling sci-fi, and lush fantasy.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

#MSWL Some of my favorite adult fantasy and sci fi titles:
THE TETHERED MAGE by Melissa Caruso, PLANETFALL by Emma Newman, PRIEST OF BONES by Peter McLean, THE POPPY WAR by R.F. Kuang, and STORY OF YOUR LIFE/ARRIVAL by Ted Chiang.

#MSWL I am always eager to find new adult fantasy and sci fi projects, but I am extremely selective. Looking for sci fi that changes my entire perception of possibility in the universe. Looking for fantasy that breaks the mold & embraces new magical structures/systems.

Really hoping for some SF that goes beyond, "Oh look, bad aliens. Let's shoot them!" #MSWL

"Sci-fi & fantasy novels. I love them. I read a ton of them. But they have to be accessible.What does that mean? It means that readers who don't traditionally pick up much sci-fi/fantasy, can pick up one of these novels & enjoy it." @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

#MSWL weird sci-fi of epic scale blending our world with one much stranger, as in EMPRESS OF FOREVER or the TAZ: Amnesty finale

If you have a fantasy or a sci-fi or a thriller with horror elements, I really really really want to read it #mswl

Um, yes. Generation ships gone awry. #MSWL

#MSWL Still looking for gritty teen sci-fi or fantasy with the intensity level and unpredictability of The 100 TV show.

In adult, I am particularly looking for SFF! I'm currently excited about fun voicey space books, epic fantasy set in original and well-defined worlds, and fantasy that turns a familiar trope on its head. #mswl

In SFF, I love a kickass heroine doing kickass things. I want to see a diverse group of people (in a multicultural/gender/sexuality sense) coming together to fight whatever BIG BAD there is. While High Fantasy isn't a good fit, pretty much everything else is.

4. If I have your submission, I'm still reading. I promise. #MSWL

Forever looking for a MG or YA version of N.K. Jemisin's The Fifth Season, a #SFF that effortlessly sweeps me up in the story, characters, and world all at the same time. #MSWL

#mswl #MG On my middle grade wishlist, anything fantastical, SF, or contemporary that has humor & heart and turns the usual tropes upside down!

Some general info:
- I’m currently only accepting agented submissions
- I’m very actively seeking adult horror for #Nightfire, so that’s my priority
- BUT I’m open to YA horror, and adult and YA fantasy, scifi, and thrillers as well

Oh hell yes #mswl

very much so same #mswl all the f/f/ all the time

Finally, I am always looking for inclusive storytelling. LGBTQIA+ characters, less explored mythologies, SFF from authors of color, neurodivergence. #MSWL

SFF with personal stakes rather than global stakes #MSWL
