-I'm still open to finding more self-published authors in the Adult market (SFF, Romantasy, or Mystery) who want help exploiting their retained sub-rights. Audio rights being at the top of that list. #MSWL

- If I go for sci-fi, I’m more into specific vs expansive. Think The Echo Wife by Sarah Gailey, or Little Eyes by Samanta Schweblin.

For the next two weeks we are open to adult upmarket/literary/commercial fiction (speculative elements including horror, etc. are OK!) and then we'll open to remaining genres like SFF

Very happy to share my #MSWL , working alongside @ecniumata !

Upmarket or book club fiction that blends genres, including speculative (always enjoy some spookiness!), fantasy/sci-fi, historical, mystery/thriller, etc. (1/10)

Something I can’t get enough of is REALITY TV with a SFF, horror, or thriller/mystery element. #mswl

Think The Selection, Hunger Games, though doesn’t have to be YA.

Not a fit for contemporary romance reality TV. It needs a genre element to really pique my interest.

#mswl

I am looking for commercial fiction across the board, but the particular areas I’d like to grow are romance, SFF & mysteries! 💕🛸🧚🕵️

Further info will be on the website (link in my bio) & on slides below…

I also want to build my list of exciting, meaningful, fun, and funny MG fiction! Again, I especially hope to see SFF and horror submissions with original premises and clear conflicts, but I'm also open to contemporary stories and mysteries. In everything, I hope to see strong messages! #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

First: YA! Half of the projects that I fell in love with last year were YA fantasy, so I'm craving more! I'm also open to contemporary, romance, mystery, horror, and sci-fi.

I'm seeking unique world-building; relatable, messy, dynamic characters; twists and turns; and emotional depth. #MSWL

🕸 We are open to queries 🕸

Next year, I’m hoping to find a SF project that could be described as retro futurism or hopepunk. I want space as optimistic adventure, not “this is our last hope.”
#mswl

as I’m opening to queries in a few days, it’s time for a proper #mswl . I’m looking for YA/adult SFFH and serious trade non-fic in the broad history/sociology space. I’m very keen on the literary end of genre, as well as commercial stories that say something about society. 1/?

🎵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…

#MSWL I'm open to submissions! But hurry! Just until 20 Dec, and I'm looking for:
- Adult space: near-future, light scifi that feel like they're set 10 minutes into the future, where there's just one or two elements that are otherworldly. Char-driven & strong pacing a must. No hard SciFi

- Adult space: Horror that is sometimes beautiful with a setting that can feel like a character. No splatterpunk. Deeper psychological themes a plus. Strong pacing & character driven a must.

- Adult space: Contemp light fantasy & magic systems that can be mistaken for just things out of the ordinary happening to happen. Grounded in the real world a must. Strong pacing & char driven only please.

In all of these, deeply emotional/surprisingly beautiful is a plus.
