—Mystery and horror in certain genres (In mystery, think cozies or women’s fiction-adjacent, instead of hard-boiled detective stories; in horror, think Hill House, not Halloween).

—Character-driven sci-fi and fantasy. Send your sweeping, sexy Kushiel’s Dart-style epics, please!

Women's fiction that makes me cry at the end of the book, from heartwarming or heartbreak, is a fave, and I'm a sucker for a dual timeline when masterfully done. #MSWL

Excited to share my #mswl! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/juli…

Happy 2022! I'm open to queries and want to hear from you! Check out my updated #MSWL here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/dani… Can't wait to read!📚

Highest on my #mswl is Romance and WF/Book Club Fiction. In Romance I like tropey, character driven books with a feminist bite and a big hook.

Would still really love to find #sweetromance or #womensfiction with #culinary or #magical elements and or #beach settings. Viola Shipman-ish or Sarah Addison Allen-ish #mswl especially with an African-American protagonist.

Genres I'm on the hunt for:
MG fantasy, MG literary contemporary, YA humor, YA fantasy, YA rom-com, Upmarket Women's fiction.
#MSWL - international settings, folktale re-imaginings, funny friendship banter, twisty YA thrillers, multiple POV, found family.

romance: both contemporary and historical romcoms and millennial romance/women’s fiction; give me ALL the banter, chemistry, strong-willed MCs. i want to laugh AND cry!

Here are the ADULT GENRES I am seeking in 2022:
Women’s Fiction
Book Club/Commercial Fiction
Contemporary Romance/Rom-Coms
Non-Political Thrillers/Mysteries/Suspense
Horror
Historical Fiction - with a contemporary feel

and high concept thrillers. I want to see something different and fresh

- For contemporary, I’m looking for stories on the lighter side (friendships, romcoms, family, etc)

For Adult:

Basically what I said above. I also do category romance, women’s fiction centered on #MSWL

I'd love to see more submissions from trans women and trans feminine folks. I'm currently considering YA, NA, and adult romance books. I love fantasy, contemporary books, and women's fiction. I'm not too keen on horror, thrillers, and suspense #MSWL

#mswl small-town romance and beachy women's fiction.

It's Tuesday! Here's your #MSWL for today, from @BookEndsKim: "She’s eager to find big, sweeping love stories that will appeal to book club readers, and straddle the romance and women’s fiction markets."

My #MSWL and more. Thanks @JerichoWriters!

And women's fiction/romance with magical realism or a speculative twist, like You Were There Too and In Five Years.

Sweep me away to a historical period I know nothing about but become instantly obsessed with. Give me intrigue, give me characters for days, take me outside of Western Europe #mswl can be either romance or book club/WF!

I am in the ultimate cozy reading mood with this beautiful 65 degree morning. #amquerying authors, please send me all the adult rom-coms, upmarket/book club, women's fiction! #mswl
