1. Adult Horror: I want books that have something to SAY--about our present, our past, our future. Feminist/anti-colonialist stories are close to my heart, but I'm open to anything that can be described as "smart + terrifying." I'm also open to grounded fantasy w/ horror elements

· 15 Sep 2020

I’m officially open to queries again! Here’s a short thread of what’s at the top of my #mswl for the rest of 2020! (full MSWL linked at the end)

My kingdom for a Latinx fantasy (I mean, my kingdom for all of them, but I was taught to start with measured steps, so let’s start there) #MSWL twitter.com/little_mswrite… pic.twitter.com/YWCqzp1v5T

Gimme. #mswl

Horror

Nivia Evans @NiviaEvans

Really in the mood for something gothic as hell, full of rot and ruin, a slow-burn romance, twists and turns, and BIPOC protagonists. #MSWL

Uhhhhh yes please #mswl

Eri @eriexplosion

I want to see the cop romance genre replaced entirely by postal worker romances, just saying. ROMANTICIZE! THE POSTAL WORKERS!

Oh man I totally want a You’ve Got Mail but actually about letters between postal workers. #mswl

Every once in awhile I think back to a bit on Last Podcast on the Left where they went on & on about this spooooky music box song a listener wrote in about & how it was so familiar though she’d never heard it before. The guys agreed that it eerily just opened your mind somehow…

#mswl 👀

· 11 Aug 2020

God I just want an adult #horror novel with an epic queer romance at the center please just give this to me #MSWL

Who is going to do this for me #mswl

I’d really like to see manuscripts about non-western witches in my inbox (they might not be called witches, of course!) #mswl

Witch

· 13 Jun 2020

I’d love to see more non-white thriller and suspense writers in my inbox! #mswl

· 5 Jun 2020

If you are querying a MG or YA graphic novel, especially if you are an author-illustrator, I'd love to see it. #PitMad #BVM #MSWL

· 28 May 2020

I'd love to see more upmarket/literary fantasy in my inbox, a la TEN THOUSAND DOORS, UPROOTED, A DARKER SHADE. I'm particularly drawn to books that play with fairytales and folklore, but I'm looking for anything that draws me in w/ great characters and excellent writing. #mswl
