I need more swamp books in my life #mswl

Suspense/Mystery/Thriller set at a vacation destination #mswl

Gloomy, threatening, or naturally dangerous settings can go a long way in a thriller. But there’s something terrifying about bad things happening in beautiful, “safe” locations we associate w/ escape. This is a #mswl tweet but also promo for YOU CAN TRUST ME by @wendydheard

· 22 Mar 2023

Beautifully written or Upmarket Adult fantasy/SF/horror that would appeal to a book club audience. Think MEXICAN GOTHIC, STATION ELEVEN, or THE STARLESS SEA. #mswl

· 22 Mar 2023

Adult Romance w a hint of magic or a genre element. Think THE DEAD ROMANTICS, THE EX HEX, or ONE LAST STOP. #mswl

I am out of ways to tell traditional publishing they need to buy more trans girl YA but holy shit how are you still buying one a year at BEST.

Don't tell me no one is subbing it because I will literally hand you one I am dying to see bought and then it's gonna get weird.

I would love to see more of these stories in my inbox. #mswl

I found these AI generated "women laughing with salad" posted on FB and they are clearly the pinnacle of the genre (1/2) pic.twitter.com/G9sRTRtsZm

I keep thinking about this, so #mswl for monstrous females

I want an escapist book that gives me the same feeling I get watching White Lotus. Fantastic characters, a gripping plot, and a fabulous location. maybe it’s a thriller, maybe it’s a drama, maybe it’s a little bit of both, maybe it’s something else entirely! #mswl

Thriller

Jay Hulme @JayHulmePoet

Love to get an email saying that there are so many bones in the graveyard that they're not only attempting to escape vertically, but laterally, and are causing the city council an enormous headache as skeletons attempt to smash through retaining walls and flee into the streets.

If you’ve written a romance with a TOUCH of magic…or horror…or a thriller element…I want to read it. Gimme your genre benders! #mswl

#mswl — my goal for 2023 is to sign a suspense novel written by a BIPOC author. We need more of your books on shelves.

Lauren Spieller is open to queries! @laurenspieller

Okay YA Twitter, where is my spooky YA fantasy? Where’s my ghost story? My haunted house? My deadly secrets? My poison book? I want vibes, people! VIBES!

But also a plot that works and strong character development and a magic system that functions.

And VIBES! pic.twitter.com/NXnijrJ8gu

Sorry this is #mswl!

I’m a sucker for a retelling/reimagining. I represent at least 6 of them and I want more!!! #mswl

Retelling

· 24 Feb 2023

#mswl: middle grade contemporary w a great voice and a big hook! I love Kelly Yang, Cece Bell, Maleeha Siddiqui, Hena Khan, and Ali Benjamin to name a few!

· 16 Feb 2023

My full #mswl can be found on the agency website but here’s what I’m especially looking for in 2023:

—Adult + YA RomCom that are FUNNY AF *or/and* Adult Romance w a magic/spec twist
—Suspense/Thrillers (we need more queer and POC rep in this category!)
—MG Fantasy! All kinds!

· 10 Feb 2023

I’d love to find a genre-bending romance in 2023. Think Ash Poston or Casey McQuiston. #MSWL

Romance

‘he’s just not that into you’ (2009) premiered 14 years ago today pic.twitter.com/TehglSzmSz

I think this is the year I get REALLY into romance #mswl

Romance

· 6 Jan 2023

I have just learned about the existence of Kaleidoscope on Netflix and I don’t even need to watch it to say it is going on my #mswl. A heist that plays w structure? Yes yes yes.

Heist

Joy McCullough @JMCwrites

FYI fellow writers with questionable search histories: I've found this book an excellent resource. It's beautifully illustrated and designed, with great historical and scientific info. Trigger warning for a few surprise photos of dead bodies. pic.twitter.com/Ue9qYT9wNe

If you used this or a similar book as research for your novel, I want to read it. #mswl
