A #MSWL update:
I’m no longer taking YA submissions. I’ll consider any YA subs that are already in my submissions folder, but will be focusing my attention solely on adult horror for Nightfire moving forward.

New pinned tweet! I hope this'll be a useful resource for agents.

And I'll keep a thread of the books I've acquired below!

Please note:
- agented subs only
- I’m open to adult (novels + novellas) & YA
- I almost exclusively edit horror

Since I've been getting some queries lately: I'm not currently considering middle-grade manuscripts! I mainly acquire adult horror for Nightfire + some select YA for Tor Teen. MG books are great! I'm just not the right editor for them πŸ™‚
(#mswl; or...#antimswl I guess?)
