Hey y'all, I'm not on this site much anymore, but just in case it's helpful, I'm posting my updated #MSWL here! Check out our submissions instructions to send me your brilliant work :)

The 40 will comprise of adult fiction, mainly, with the odd non-fiction project thrown in. I'll do a more specific MSWL in the coming days ready for when I open up. I will use Query Manager like before and will keep my semi-personalized rejections system.

Ok, agents and authors. It's me! Your friendly, local editor. I'm starting to build my 2026 list. Interested in what I'm looking for? Sure, you are. Here's my #mswl .

General #MSWL 3:

Very commercial books for New Adult and Adult Gen-Z and Millennial audiences that feature sticky hooks and feel like they’re doing something fun, new, and BIGGER with their genre.

General #MSWL 2:

Select Adult upmarket/literary work that is super high concept and feels fresh and hyper relevant (especially work that explores or intersects family/culture/history à la THE JOY LUCK CLUB).

I’ve decided to stay open to queries through November 7th before closing for the year. 🎉 I’m still actively looking for adult werewolves, horror, commercial fiction, and more! Excited to read more amazing stories!

Tidbits on what I’m hunting: adult/YA horror; romance (sweet, dark, steam; romcoms, meet cutes, sports hero protagonists, etc.); thrillers/psych susp.; YA dark academia; adult/YA fantasy/romantasy (r’masy must be very unique); & more. Read #mswl #WritingCommmunity #amquerying

WRITERS: I'm open to queries and I'm excited to read your stories. I'm looking for YA/MG/PB and NF (adult and kids). Make me laugh, make me cry, keep me up all night reading. #MSWL here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/shari-maurer/

I am HUNGRY for adult non fiction from expert voices in their field. I'm very, very open to a wide variety of topics (surprise me!), though anything about death, death doulas, menopause, chronic illness, and medical gaslighting is likely to catch my eye.

Very much still looking for horror in the adult, YA and MG space! Also, humorous mystery a la Only Murders/Finlay Donovan is (still) hitting my sweet spot.

In adult and YA fiction, I'd love to see genre blends--particularly thriller + romance / horror + romance / horror + fantasy!

On the adult side, I'm VERY much looking for book club fiction, i.e. upmarket, which is basically a commercial plot with literary writing. If you comp to Britt Marie Was Here or Eleanor Oliphant, PLEASE HIT SEND, thank you.

in advance of opening to queries tomorrow (!!!!), some #mswl ... & please note this is NOT an exclusive list. I'm open to nearly anything in the adult/YA/MG fiction and adult non fiction categories! (though I'm not open to PBs)

As I get ready to open up to queries on Oct. 1st, here's a #MSWL of what I'm looking for! If you're unsure if your project would be a good fit based off of this list, that's okay. Please still consider querying me 😊

*Any fulls I have are still being considered

As I reopen to queries the first of October, I’m primarily looking for

- romance of all kinds
- women’s fiction
- adult low fantasy
- very select thriller and horror (psychological, haunted houses, anything similar to Black Swan or Suspiria)

#MSWL

Very specific things I'd love to see
- more adult fantasy/romantasy (something very unique and off the wall and contemporary/grounded)
- MG and YA horror and mystery/thriller
- Academia
- humorous cozy fantasy
- sapphics!

#MSWL
