When it comes to horror, I like to be SCAREDβI'm talking afraid-to-turn-off-the-lights-at-night scared. (Think Hereditary, Midsommar, The Witch, and, once again, Jordan Peele.)

Generally speaking, I'm drawn to social commentary (Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid; Pigs by Johanna Stoberock; Jordan Peele films), and I'm also not opposed to humorous horror (The Southern Book Clubβs Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix; Suburban Hell by Maureen Kilmer).

I'm eagerly seeking commercial thrillers, horror, and domestic suspense, as well as upmarket speculative fiction.
In all of these genres, I'm looking for high concept stories with something new to say.
