Non-European historical fantasy. Period-appropriate feminism. Societies/magic systems with lots of rules that fit together cohesively.

Temporary, short-timeline disaster YA (like a blackout) that's character-driven, timeless, and lyrical.

Adult literary fairytale retellings that don't scream out "retelling" -- think Boy, Snow, Bird.

YA horror in abandoned settings, i.e, City Hall Station NYC, Six Flags Jazzland, overgrown section of China's Great Wall.

Want well developed and character driven romances w/ unique voices in all ages & settings. Hybrid genres welcome.

Monica Odom
Coen Brothers-esque adult. Weird characters, dark humor, non sequiturs, a hidden part of society.

My biggest #MSWL right now is smart, steamy adult romance (historical or contemp). Vivid writing & characters required, diversity welcome!

Beth Phelan
More smart contemporary romance with big concepts and heat.

Horror in abandoned settings, i.e, City Hall Station NYC, Six Flags Jazzland, overgrown section of China's Great Wall...

Love to see more Romantic Suspense, especially with geeky, cybercrime detective.

Sarah LaPolla
A new take on "sad white boy" contemp. YA. More diverse MCs. No more pining over a manic pixie dream girl. Stronger story overall.

I also recently read and *loved* SIMON VS, and would leap with joy to find a YA LGBT contemporary with a unique hook & a killer voice.

Marisa Corvisiero
I'm looking for extraordinary science fiction or heavy science thriller like The Martian for adults, YA, and MG.

Sarah LaPolla
Like, PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER & CATCHER IN THE RYE were my everything at age 15, but like... let's build on that. Not just repeat.

Bree Ogden
Also I wouldn't mind a romance in which both lovers die in the end. Super tragically. NOT a R+J reimagining but death for all!

Calling the next Tina Fey! Move over, Mean Girls. Make me (and everyone else!) laugh.

Beth Phelan
Sexy as hell romance with heroes and heroines that are diverse.
