Please! I love gothic stories! #MSWL

New #MSWL posted! taragilbert.com/mswl/

Horror, queer and POC, will be top of my #mswl when I open in a couple weeks!

Y'all, I'm going to really focus on MG when I reopen in a couple weeks. Just a heads up on the #amquerying crowd. #MSWL

Hell yes, sign me up. Also, love this premise. #mswl
(I'm closed, but when I open again)

Hell yes! I would love a QPOC RomCom! Give me all the happy queer and POC stories please. #mswl

You know what I would really love? A YA book version if Cabin in the Woods. #mswl

Ooo yes! Me too! #mswl #UmbrellaAcademy2

- Adult and YA speculative fiction like VE Schwab and Madeline Miller.
- Fluffy, happy romance.
- Have you read anything by TJ Klune? Because I'm looking for the next TJ Klune. Hilarious, emotional, awesome.
#MSWL

Before I close for queries tomorrow, I wanted to get out a #mswl of what I really want to see in my inbox.
- Authors of underrepresented communities (POC, LGBTQIA+, body, neuro, disabled)
- Fat girl stories where their weight is not the plot.
- MG and YA horror.

Y'all, I'm serious, I really need a true enemies-to-lovers in my box. I'm talking Killing Eve's Villanelle/Eve. Or just turn VICIOUS's Eli and Victor gay. Like... is this so much to ask for? #MSWL

To add to that. Boarding schools, haunted houses, creepy forests, swamps, dark caves, hellscapes, small-town adventures, underrepresented cultures, myths, and folklore based on places, clubs, secret societies, organizations. Places and communities that come alive at night. #MSWL

I'm really craving stories where the setting is the main focus. Very atmospheric and spooky. A sense of place. Or setting's that feel like home. Dripping with culture. If you can make an epic mood board for your book, I want it. #MSWL

I need a story with this aesthetic. #mswl instagram.com/p/CCw8lAmnraq/…

Ummm. Yes. This is book format. #mswl

Ok, I'd love to see some really unique occult stuff in my box. Not straight-up witches, but a new spin on the occult. I love things that play with cards (tarot and the likes). Maybe a new spin on a magic library or a creepy forest. I love super dark and super happy fiction. #mswl

I love villain origin stories. 😈#MSWL

Up yes. #mswl

The Babysitters Club is making me crave cute contemporary MG. Anyone have a MS or GN about friendships or first crushes? #mswl
