Query Manager is live again!

Good time as any that I am looking for YA and Adult fiction, with an emphasis on Contemporary, Romance (but not necessarily rom-coms), and Horror! #mswl I want funny, sharp, and dark wit the most :)

A thread of recent faves in next tweet!

Needed more words 😅:

Looking for this in YA and Adult!

If you don’t have horror, my next wish is contemporary women’s fiction featuring a main character or ensemble cast in the mid-20 - mid-30s. I’m not married and don’t want kids; I have hangovers and lesbian drama 🥳 #mswl

Happy Friday!

Want to let #amquerying folks know that my current #mswl is exclusively (hyperbole!) sapphic, dark, comedic horror feat. BIPOC casts!

I’m a fan of Scream, Fear Street 1994, Urban Legend (2001), The Descent

I’m that goofy bitch from the block w/as big mouth!!!

I LOVE horror, but please let’s get us out of the suburban house and into a new fucking location. Please, I’m begging. #mswl

Writers, I am begging, please give me an Adult horror novel reminiscent of #Archive81. The way the show understands that some of the greatest horror comes from our need to have answers from/about the people we love - and the way we’d burn our own flesh for resolution. #mswl

Would probably die for an Adult Horror/Psychological Thriller in the vein of Showtime’s YELLOWJACKETS which is literally all I can fucking think about.

I need more Misty and Taissa in my life. #MSWL

First #MSWL tweet of 2022:

Would immediately devour: YA horror like RULES FOR VANISHING and Adult Horror like NOTHING BUT BLACKENED TEETH.

Would fangirl for: YA contemporary or thriller teen ensemble girl/queer squad reminiscent of JAWBREAKER

DYING for: fun, modern voices

If I sign a horror this year, I swear to God I will stop being a dirty, thirsty lesbian on this goddamn site. PLEASE. #mswl

Ummm, actually is anyone writing this right now BECAUSE I WANT IT #mswl

Y’all fucking hate me because all the horror I’m looking forward to I have to buy. PLEASE SEND ME ADULT HORROR, MY GOD!!! #mswl

Going to do a weekly reminder that I want all kinds of queer BIPOC centered HORROR NOVELS PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE SAVE ME FROM MY HORROR-LESS AGENT LIFE ☺️ Bonuses if it takes place in non-traditional setting (like houses, asylums, small towns, etc) #mswl

Literally, I am forever on the search for this pleasing genre-combo #mswl

I am not dipping into #Pitmad today, but I am aggressively seeking Adult projects, particularly horror and domestic suspense thrillers (WHEN NO ONE IS WATCHING, THE KILL CLUB; not CIA/FBI thrillers), & romance. I am hyper focused on seeking queer BIPOC writers & characters #mswl

I want like...Broad City but more grit and queer and QPOC!!! #mswl

And then query me so we agent peers have some friendly competition! #mswl

I just really want some cerebral, fucked up horror shit that really takes characters through the ringer with confronting who they are when faced with fuckshit. Specifically searching for this in the Adult space, but YA too! #mswl

literally send me the YA featuring broke ass qpoc punks. send me Adult horror & romance featuring them, too. Damn. #mswl

Piggybacking - I want this (no CIA/FBI/investigative thrillers) with QPOC outside of suburbia, please and thank you! Also applies to horror!! #mswl

I just want a book like Netflix’s Marianne but actually queer. #MSWL I really only want to read horror with queer characters that’s fresh right now.

Y’all know I love Horror. Do y’all know that the first movie I ever saw was Child’s Play? That I grew up on that series, and Nightmare on Elm St, and Friday The 13th?

I like my horror with comedy, scares, and a largely teen cast. W/genre bends like The Final Girls (2015) #mswl
