#MSWL in #Horror :
-Atmospheric Horror, and extreme settings, like a blistering cold winter or a dry desert
-Old stories coming back to haunt the MC
-Character led journeys to find the truth or right a wrong
-Supernatural elements
- Dark naturalism, earthy, creepy woods

Plus #Horror that draws on similar folklore inspirations but with much darker themes and settings, like books by T. Kingfisher and C.J. Cooke.

I'm participating in #MSWL Day! I've been working through my queries, and I'm almost ready to re-open. (Estimate: March 10) I'll be posting throughout today, and I'm so excited to see new subs in these areas: #fantasy #speculative #adventure #historical #mystery #suspense #horror

It's been a long hiatus, but I'm reopening to unsolicited fiction on February 1. I've updated my #MSWL and hope to see lots of stories that sidestep into magic, mystery, horror, or adventure in my inbox next month! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/alic…
