The market may not like it, but market is a separate beast from the art itself, and when you read both horror and romance, you see the shared carnal tissue between them. There's plenty of room to let these lovers intertwine.But you may have to let go of marketable and get messy. x.com/disasterhomo/s/disasterhomo/status/1803754143602901390
Agents, I’d love to see some queer horror romance in my inbox! Let’s make some Nightfire and Bramble crossovers happen 👀 #mswl

I hope we get much more horror in 2024. I want more queer horror, more horror from BIPOC writers, more horror mixed with whatever authors love, more cerebral horror, more horror that doesn't give a fuck about being easy to digest, and more place-specific horror. I want it all.Hey agents, #MSWL for 2024 👀

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.

Sailor D.J. Says @OhHeyDJ
I have a humble request. Can we get more queer content that isn’t so like, squeaky clean and perfect? I want more stuff where characters are undeniably queer, have faults and are messy.![](https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/756584371486879744/f-CFDR9y_bigger.jpg)

I want a Big Queer Horror Book because there are so few and this is a Crime. I want to constantly be drowning in spooky queer stuff #MSWL

I’m personally terrified of deep, open water (there could be anything down there!!!) (growing up in Florida and being afraid of the ocean was a trip). Please send me horror like Jaws, Underwater, etc. 🌊👀 #mswl

SEND ME QUEER HORROR PROJECTS. I've got a personal soft spot for bi protagonists (because...hi), but I'm looking for horror characters/stories from every part of the LGBTQ+ community. Give me characters grappling with sexuality/gender and ALSO monsters #mswl

morg 🌸 @garnetmorgue
i am waiting for these big publishers to see that so so so many people give love to queer YA books so therefore,,,,it would make sense for them to start pushing queer adult fiction like queer kids do grow up u knowAgents, please know I’m absolutely ravenous for queer adult #horror for @TorNightfire. Like, foaming at the mouth, clawing at the walls, wailing at the moon, etc. etc. #MSWL
