Happy #MSWL day! One thing I'd love to see in my query box is a cohesive fantasy or urban fantasy heist novel with paranormal elements, an immersive world, and all the feels. YA/NA/Adult

The rest of my wishlist can be seen at my pinned post, along with my query link. Please don't pitch in replies!

Finally made the move over here for #MSWL Day! Writers, give me your monsters—both literal and metaphorical. Give me characters who feel monstrous or *are* monsters! I especially love a thread of romance with someone who feels unlovable and someone who's devoted to them anyway. 😈 MG through Adult!

Would you ever be interested in rom-coms for younger readers? Like a first crush kind of rom-com?

For YA, absolutely. For middle-grade or tween, it would have to really fit the age group and have much more going on in the plot beyond the romantic element, if that makes sense #mswl

It's worth noting that while I'm really looking for rom-coms, and I enjoy romantic elements in fiction and in YA, I'm not the right fit for category romances #mswl

Highlighting some #mswl in either YA, NA or adult: horror of any variety. Looking for really unique (new twists) romantasy, fantasy from soft to epic. Also where are my sci-fi space opera writers? 🤣 In addition to my other tweets on what I want.
