I'm acquiring for Love Inspired, Love Inspired Suspense, Love Inspired Trade, and a limited inspirational historical romance program. I'm particularly interested in adding AOC to my list. My DMs are open for any questions or pitches from Black authors. #mswl

If you have one & want feedback on an idea you can fit in a tweet, I'm here

I'm particularly obsessed with the idea of a sanitation worker helming a thriller, which I saw in a tweet a few days ago and foolishly didn't save.

What are your other ideas for careers that would make a good vantage point for suspense fiction?

#mswl

I often say I want unexpected suspense. Here are some careers that could be a fun perspective from which to dig into a mystery instead of police detective as MC
-rental car agency employee
-sanitation worker
-UPS driver (or bus driver, or Lyft driver...)
-mail carrier

In fiction I definitely want more upmarket, literary, women's fiction as well as suspense, thriller, and mystery. I'm looking for women's stories, personal growth, friendship stories (a friendship breakup book). #LGBTQ stories and authors #MSWL

Merry, merry, ready to query? Check out what we’re actively looking for in 2020. #MSWL bit.ly/2XaGCUG

Going down a YA murder mystery rabbit-hole & I can’t help but wonder what a YA suspense from the killer’s perspective would read like, with readers totally unaware until the end. It would take a crazy level of plotting and imagination to pull it off & have it be a surprise. #MSWL

I can't find a tweet for it, but I also really want more dark, twisted suspense/thrillers a la Gillian Flynn, Ruth Ware, Wendy Heard, and Lauren Beukes. If it crosses over into horror, that's great too! #QuarantineMSWL (7/?)

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

I'm eager to find some heart pounding, swoon worthy #CF #Romantic #suspense in my inbox! #MSWL Sub guidelines here: anaiahpress.wordpress.com/submissions/
