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)

#MSWL

✨ Remote places, landscapes, seas, rivers, barges, ships, the outdoors
✨ Friendships, missing people, the forgotten, nurses, communities
✨ Imprints from the past, monsters, ghosts, time-slips

Send me your opening chapter: querymanager.com/query/katenash

Hi friends, I've updated my ManuscriptWishlist profile to better reflect what I'm currently looking for! #MSWL

manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/carleen-geisler/

If you haven’t yet found Nobody Wants This, please do! It’s everything I needed to watch this weekend. I have a feeling it will become embedded in my updated #MSWL !

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

Send in those queries. Full #MSWL on Query Manager. #writersoftwitter #WritingCommunity

I will open again to queries on the 7th. I think I want to see more witches in my inbox. I always wanted a coven. THE SECRET CIRCLE and THE CRAFT made me think I would just find one in high school, and I was let down. #mswl

super interested in finding more spirituality focused nonfiction! #mswl

I am open for submissions. Full list of genres on Query Manager! #mswl #writersoftwitter

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

Some more #MSWL items for me:

•Middle grade science fiction like Insignia by S.J. Kincaid, which I loved

•Epistolary fiction like Several People Are Typing by Calvin Kasulke

•Lyrical, literary, lush contemporary (or contemporary-ish) YA—again, Jandy Nelson comes to mind

Dark academia in space?🪐🏨 #MSWL

Also, all 5☆ reads ~

I'm taking an in-depth look at my #mswl and explaining exactly what I'm looking for in a new reel on my Instagram! Check it out if you're interested!

(btw this doesn’t mean the genre has to be horror/paranormal although I’m certainly not opposed to that)

Have been seeing so many destiel posts on my tl this past week like fine…now I’m craving a book with the same SLOW slow burn—where we actually get to see the mc’s end up together—and tension those two had 😒 #mswl #SPNFamily

•If one of your comps is Picture Us In The Light by Kelly Loy Gilbert, check out me in the acknowledgments and also query me NOW

•I’m SO looking forward to the next Jandy Nelson book!

More #MSWL thoughts:

•If you can write like Hozier (especially on Unreal Unearth and First Time) and you haven’t already queried me, consider: changing that!

•I loved, loved, loved Matt Baume’s Hi Honey, I’m Homo! I would love to work on something similar for younger readers.

•Projects about the realities of fame, even at the micro- or local-celebrity levels. (Fame is another lifelong fascination for me!)

•Non-fiction about online relationships
