If you have a project with a stand out hook that doesn't necessarily fit any of the above boxes, do still send it my way. I can never resist a book with a stunning one line pitch #MSWL

And the news is out! Very excited to be joining the team at @canelo_co as a commissioning editor and can't wait to publish some stand out commercial fiction! twitter.com/thebookseller/โ€ฆ

Particularly on the hunt for gripping psychological fiction that will leave me thinking about the characters long after I turn the final page. Am also on the hunt for some book club reads and suspenseful women's fiction. #MSWL

I know there may be great pitches that I don't see, so if I haven't favourited your pitch, but you think we'd be a good fit, please do still send me your MS marked 'FAO: Leodora #DVpit'.

I would love to find some twisty psych/domestic thrillers. I also have a soft spot for heartbreaking historical or women's fiction. Finally, if you're sitting on a crime novel with a killer hook, please send it my way. #MSWL

Thinking about wading into the #dvpit thread later got me like...

Writers, check out my pinned thread for my wishlist and sub guidelines. But most of all...

GOOD LUCK!

For our YA pitchers, I'm looking for moving fiction that makes me want to laugh and cry. I'm also on the lookout for paranormal romance, so do swing it my way if you have it #MSWL #DVpit

Jaw-dropping crime thrillers: gimme gimme gimme! I want twisty psych thrillers, unputdownable crime and would love a look at a conspiracy thriller if you're sitting on one.

I'm also hunting for moving, upmarket or quirky women's fiction, so if you have it I WANT! #MSWL #DVpit
