"I'm interested in upmarket thrillers that use an engaging thriller premise to explore personal/social issues – THE ECHO WIFE and WHEN NO ONE IS WATCHING are two of my all-time favorites."

"Send me thrillers (legal, medical, political, etc.) and mysteries (cozy, private eye, police procedural, etc.)"
curtisrussell.bsky.social #MSWL

"In adult fiction, I'm looking for code-breaking or puzzle-solving-based mysteries."
alexandragrana.bsky.social #MSWL

Next time I open, I would love to see more author/illustrator graphic novels 🙏🏻 #MSWL

Nonfiction:
Funny, authentic, and brutally honest stories, like anything by Jenny Lawson
Unique and niche topics, coffee table books

Please refer to my profile on Storm’s website for my complete #MSWL and use my QT link to query me. I cannot wait to read your materials!

Specific wishes in Middle Grade Fiction:
Fantasy, especially fairytale and myth retellings
Plot- and character-driven stories with literary writing and commercial appeal
Stories featuring boys as main characters
Action/adventure stories, especially those heavy on humour
Disability/neurodiverse/chronic illness representation
Stories that celebrate diverse cultures

Specific wishes in Young Adult Fiction:
Stories that grapple with faith, sexuality, and/or cultural identity, like Ahmad Saber’s RAMIN ABBAS HAS MAJOR QUESTIONS
Mystery thrillers that keep me turning the page, like Katie Bernet’s BETH IS DEAD (retellings or not)
Stories that broach topics like neurodivergence and sexuality in an authentic way, like Andrew Joseph White’s THE SPIRIT BARES ITS TEETH
Psychological horror that reads like a dark fairy tale, like C.G. Drews’s DON’T LET THE FOREST IN

Specific wishes in Adult Fiction:
High-stakes fantasy where characters face impossible decisions
Boundary-pushing Queer horror, like Andrew Joseph White
Weird girl fiction, like Callie Kazumi and Monika Kim
litRPG, like Matt Dinniman’s DUNGEON CRAWLER CARL
Cottage gore and botanical body horror (think the aesthetic of the movie Gaia)
Thrillers with extremely high-concept hooks, like Marisa Walz’s GOOD INTENTIONS and Caro Clare Burke’s YESTERYEAR
Unhinged female protagonists, like Marisa Kashino’s BEST OFFER WINS

I am drawn to commercial hooks, lyrical writing, and voicy characters who jump off the page and pull you in. I love books that explore underrepresented folk stories and mythologies. Similarly, I am interested in non-Western settings. In fantasy, I adore a unique magic system. I am also a big fan of books about books. Across all genres and age groups, I would love to see projects from BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, disabled, neurodiverse, and chronically ill communities.

🚨 ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨

I have joined @StormLiterary as an Associate Literary Agent. I will open to queries this Thursday, June 11th.

I’ll be putting my legal background to work and fiercely advocating for my clients. As an editorial agent, I aim to help career writers share their stories with the world.
