@erin_clyburn @Megan_Manzano @Literary_Tara What’s at the TOP of your MSWL? Anything you’re dying to see?! 😁#askagent
I'd absolutely love:
Complex/sweet sibling relationships
Slow burn/enemy to lovers romance
Witches
A cast of super close characters. Think Stranger Things.
Survivalist stories.
Space travel or space operas.

Seriously, all I want is space opera that gives me the same emotional highs and lows as Farscape. #mswl

#mswl I’d really love a tightly plotted adult space opera. Kind of thinking a failing “abandoned” human colony sets out to make their way home. Maybe some crazy time dilation or something has occurred. Maybe very few men on the colony survive & they are trying to save them..cont.For this particular #mswl, I’m not looking for intergalactic empires, rogues, mercenaries, smugglers etc. I really want to feel the vastness of space, that feeling of being alone. I want the story and the setting to mimic that feeling of isolation as well as Passengers did!

Moving on to adult, I also rep adult SFF -- and I'm looking for the same things there that I am in YA. The only difference, I'd love an adult space opera. I've been looking for one for ages and I haven't found it yet! #MSWL
Eric Smith @ericsmithrocks · Mar 12
Half the afternoon has been spent ranting with @far_ah_way about wanting more YA that feels like Mass Effect and @ashposton’s Heart of Iron.
Gimme character driven space opera with making out please. #mswl

I’m not able to check in all of the wonderful #SFFPit entries today but if your work meets anything in my #MSWL (specifically space opera, cyberpunk, biopunk, urban fantasy) feel free to query me at QueryMe.Online/Saritza

I also still haven’t found the space opera of my dreams. C’mon, if it feels like Star Wars or Mass Effect, I want to see it. #MSWL

Hey! I am still open to queries! You should absolutely send them my way.
Here's what I'm really hungry for at the moment (#mswl);
-Epic epic epic fantasy
-Big ole space opera
-Techno thrillers
-All of the above told from non-traditional POV's

3. A truly epic space opera. Either one with fascinating and unique worldbuilding (think THE STARS ARE LEGION or A DOOR INTO OCEAN) or one that's just plain fun as well as galaxy-spanning (think the Vorkosigan books). #MSWL

Would love to find a compelling YA space opera! The setting, as well as everything that comes with it, has to be well researched. #MSWL
