Writers--I'm open to queries for the next few weeks. I'm looking for YA/MG/PB and adult and kid NF. Take a look at my #MSWL and see if we might be a good fit!

Now reopened to queries! Updated my #mswl with everything I’m looking for but the pic shows my number 1 type of story/genre. This does not exclude the rest of my MSWL tho! #writingcommunity
#anquerying

In adult fiction I'm looking for...speculative horror/thriller, contemporary romance, philosophical sci-fi, fantasy with cozy magical realism, identity driven book club fiction #mswl

All I want right now is a Horror, Thriller, a Spec novel (YA or Adult) with time loops, parallel universes, or alternate realities #mswl Preferably dark and queer.

Think Oxenfree (video game), and Dark (Netflix, German).

I want it baaad.

Hello, everyone. I'm now open to queries. Visit www.triciaskinner.com/manuscript-w... to see my #mswl . Please note I'm only seeking adult fiction.

Adult genre fiction, especially horror (send all your horror!!!), mystery/thriller, and romance. Selectively happy to consider sci-fi and fantasy.

And as many know I’ve spent a long time in children’s, and I’m still considering all children’s titles for Zando. Many more…

As always, I’m looking for projects in the MG, YA, and Adult fiction space. #mswl

"In adult fiction, I'm seeking horrors about religious deconstruction and cults."

"Send me graphic novels or graphic nonfiction with a distinctive illustration style that makes use of the visual format for middle grade, young adult, or adult readers."
mariavicente.com #MSWL

My top two #mswl wishlist items for 2026 are:
- an exciting adult mystery or thriller with something to say. Something that feels like Alyssa Cole's WHEN NO ONE IS WATCHING or
kellyekell.bsky.social's MISSING WHITE WOMAN
- mg or ya set in Appalachia by someone from there. Especially with 🏳️‍🌈 or ♿️ rep

"Seeking generational stories of parenthood and family with non-binary and/or trans characters in the commercial or historical adult fiction genre (ie. heavy with plot!)"

"In adult fiction, I'm looking for code-breaking or puzzle-solving-based mysteries."

I’m dipping into #questpit , but if I miss your pitch and you think we’d be a good fit, query me! I’m looking for horror, fantasy, and romance in YA, NA, and adult. Marginalized creators are my top priority.

Before I close to submissions in November, I want to see more horror in my inbox. It can be as scary (or as tame) as you like, for YA, NA, or Adult! #mswl #WritingCommunity

Writers, I’m in the mood for horror. I want all of it—cozy horror, horror romance, gothic horror, and more—across YA, new adult, and adult. Send it my way! #mswl

In addition, I'm looking for adult genre fiction, ranging from romance, mystery/thriller, and selectively sci-fi and fantasy. #Agents send me the things that blur genre too. #mswl

For #agents , taking my annual submission reminder from X to bsky to shout out the top of my #mswl is adult horror, especially would love to see more diverse voices, body horror, psychological, camp/humor, novella, story collection, and more. If it sits firmly in horror, I would love to see it!

With only a few months left in the year, I thought it was time to update my #MSWL !

I'm not closing to any genres, but I'm eager to acquire more romance and genre fiction. It's where I've been drawn in my personal reading, and I would love my agent list to reflect those books that have drawn me in!

Annual reminder to literary agents that I’m on the hunt for more adult horror projects.

I’d especially love #mswl to find stories steeped in rage; unexpected settings; new voices or voices established in horror. I’m hungry for it all!
