#mswl overview

✨Adult MSWL✨

I would love to see horror or projects with series potential. Though my adult list is very full at the moment and is where I’m least looking to grow at the moment!

I think I may need a fake boyfriend story when I reopen. YA or Adult #MSWL

Lil' heads up--when I reopen to queries this fall, in addition to fiction, I'll be opening widely to ALL categories of adult non-fiction.

I'd also love to connect with some self-pub'd writers looking for an agent to help exploit audio and foreign rights! 👀

#mswl

I represent MG, young adult, & adult speculative fiction (including science fiction, fantasy, horror, & cross-genre books). In all age groups, my taste gravitates toward speculative fiction with subtle romance & lush prose. Horror, mystery, & romance elements are my soft spot.

I'm also looking for adult nonfiction: memoirs & narrative nonfiction, spirituality/New Age, self-help, health/fitness, body/mind/spirit, parenting/family, motivational/inspirational, business, celebrity, lifestyle, pets, psychology, relationships/dating, & true crime. #MSWL 2/2

UPDATE: I'm open to adult horror & adult nonfiction queries through Query Manager! Send me spooky and/or psychological horror. I LOVE dark!!! I’m okay with gore as long as it fits with the story and isn’t just there for the ick factor. #MSWL 1/2

still not over yesterday's japan v italy men's volleyball game 🏐😭💔 SO I feel like this is the perfect time to make it known that I need a novel (adult/YA) that makes me feel ALL the feelings Haikyuu evokes

consider this a perennial #mswl !!! PLS!

Hello #amquerying writers! I have a small #MSWL request: if your book has vibes like I Saw the TV Glow, Love Lies Bleeding, or Saltburn, please send it my way!! Adult or YA 👀

SOMEONE SEND ME A DINO GHOST STORY! Especially if it’s adult horror. #mswl

Queer characters across all genres. I'd love to see more trans femme stories, especially with joy and/or being the center of some adventure or solving a mystery/crime/murder! #mswl

Hi, Agents! Annual reminder that in addition to all things young readers, I'm also acquiring in the adult space! Some things that I'm on the hunt for: #MSWL 🧵

In Adult, I would particularly love a funny/satirical horror, a humorous, over-the-top mystery/thriller, or a locked room mystery in a spec fic setting.

I'm NOT typically the right fit for hist fic, military, police procedurals, high fantasy/sci-fi, dystopian, or literary fic.

I am also open to the following in Adult, though prefer if they have a strong romantic subplot:
-horror
-mystery (a la Knives Out)
-thriller/suspense
-women’s fiction
-grounded/accessible SFF

ADULT

I’m primarily looking for romance, specifically:

-Romance with a spec twist (witches, ghosts, magic, timeloops, love spells, soulmates, etc.)
-Romantasy (but the worldbuilding needs to feel very grounded and accessible with the focus more on the “rom” than the “fantasy”)

An updated #MSWL thread!

In general, I’m looking for Adult, YA, & MG fiction. I'm drawn to romance, horror, lower SFF, and genre blending & am always looking for more diverse perspectives. I am NOT right for erotica, non-fic, lit fic, or lower MG/chap books.

Specifics below.

I would like to see more queries in my Inbox that offer great escapism, both on the adult as on the YA side: horror, thrillers, mysteries, romance. #MSWL .

These are not every #MSWL item I’ve ever posted (since some of those are broad) but just the specific things in the image below (and also 🧵'd in tweets below), so if you have something that fits an item on this list, feel free to send it my way on the link at the end of this 🧵:
