My Manuscript Wish List®
I’m looking for stories with romanticized worlds and literary merit. I’d love to indulge in magical realism, low fantasies, high fantasies, and romantasies with whimsical worlds and undeniable chemistry. As a hopeless romantic, I’m a sucker for byronic heroes and anti-heroes — any complex characters I can guiltily love and defend against friends and family. You can also query me with any love story that’s contemporary but feels like it’s from a different time.

I’d like the next…
Fantasy novel with a strong female MC who doesn’t need a man, yet fully entertains the “who did this to you?” trope; absurd gothic horror/stories with sapphic knights (or a combo of both) in the vein of The Starving Saints; cozy fantasy that has both whimsy and adventure; cozy/folk horror like Lucy Rose’s The Lamb
My favorites include…
The Starving Saints, The Knight and the Moth, Poldark, Lessons in Chemistry, The Examiner, Lolita, Wuthering Heights, The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches, Somewhere Beyond the Sea, The Book Eaters
