Thank you for donating your time to #RevPit. It's much appreciated.

I have a genre question. It's a heist novel very heavy on found family, cozy, with one partner looking for revenge. Think Stephanie Plum crossed with Leverage.
Mystery? Thriller? Crime? Something else?

Thanks

Ooh this is an interesting question! I want to say thriller, but the cozy vibe has me wondering if that is the best fit. I would have to read the whole manuscript to know for sure. I do love heists!

Hello! I'm curious to know if you accept historical horror?

aealexander.bsky.social•5 days ago

Historical is not my favourite and some of the other RevPit editors love it, so you may have more luck with them. But if you think I'm a good fit otherwise, I would not auto-reject or anything! It would just need to really blow me away. I DID love Dread Nation by Justina Ireland.

Thanks for your reply!

Hi Allison. I've had my eye on your MSWL for a while now since you're into sci-fi, genre mashups and twisty plots. My MS is an espionage/time travel mashup with plenty of twists and turns. Is this up your alley at all?

rammwriter.bsky.social•5 days ago

Fantastic!!

aealexander.bsky.social•5 days ago

Absolutely!

Hi! I see you accept apocalyptic, but what about good old-fashioned YA dystopia? Just curious!

aealexander.bsky.social•5 days ago

Absolutely! Love a dystopia.

Late to the game here and trying to figure out BlueSky -- Would you be interested in an urban fantasy with an intelligence analyst FMC, video game vibes, and a strong romance element? I'm hesitant to call it a straight-up romantasy (which I saw you weren't into!). Also, any spice level preferences?

aealexander.bsky.social•17 hours ago

Ooh that sounds really fun! I'm good with any spice level.

aspauldingauthor.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Excellent! Thank you so much for letting me know.

Hello hello! Would you be a good fit for a MG action/adventure story with lots of humor, thrilling suspense (bone-chilling dungeons, exotic jungle chases, etc.) and a fun dose of magic? Thanks so much!

aealexander.bsky.social•5 days ago

Yes this sounds AMAZING!

dplavny.bsky.social•5 days ago

Wonderful!! Thanks so much for responding. Can’t wait to send it along.

Hi Allison-- Lovely to see you here. Any objections to YA contemporary fantasy?

aealexander.bsky.social•5 days ago

No objections!
