Re: nonfiction: Speculative nonfiction is a genre I'm newly interested in, and I can't get enough of it.
I like memoir, but I'm specifically looking for "well researched grad thesis pretending to be a memoir" (Better by Arianna Rebolini is my go-to example).

Happy #MSWL day to all who celebrate

#MSWL I’d really love to find a dark romcom like Lights Out by Navessa Allen!

Please send me your upmarket, cozy adult mysteries! #MSWL

#MSWL I want Black culture and music nonfiction with swagger—hip-hop, R&B, jazz, scenes, cities, ambition, icons, criticism, memoir. Give me voice, authority, style, and pages with real heat. Guidelines in reply.

I'm also expressly looking for queer and trans narratives, stories by Palestinian authors, and weird/quirky books (a la Bunny by Mona Awad, Skydaddy by Kate Folk, My Death by Lisa Tuttle, etc) #mswl

Literally made a bluesky to participate in #mswl day - I’d love to find a super hooky, voicey, upmarket mystery!

Okay that is a good start and if I think of anything else I will add it to this thread
One more thing to note is that: trans women are women, and if that statement upsets you it's okay not to query me. #MSWL

I love the "chosen one who just wants to be a normal guy (gender neutral)" trope, and would love to see new takes on it! #mswl

Remember that I only accept queries through my Query Manager. Any email queries will be deleted. #MSWL

I'd like to see quirky horror and more serious horror. Think social commentary rather than slasher. Horror with romance--though everyone is looking for that. Feminist horror. Folk lore horror. #MSWL

Check out my #MSWL here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/si..., and submission guidelines here: inkwellmanagement.com/contact/! no ai stuff pls.

One thing to know about me is that I'm NOT into toxic romances. Lots of people love them, and I'm not here to rain on anyone's parade, they just AREN'T the best match for me. #MSWL

I would love a book with a Día de los Muertos connection #MSWL

I'm still searching for a mystery ala CLUE--quirky, funny, with murder. #MSWL

I absolutely would love to see more #LGBTQ + stories in my queries next week. I like vegan characters. I'm not a fan of time travel stories or stories with circus settings. #MSWL

I'll be watching for stories where a group of found family bands together to take down elite oppressors. #MSWL

I would love some mysteries and/or thrillers with twists that will leave me breathless (BUT they have to make sense!) I ask for a synopsis and I expect spoilers because I LOVE to see the dominoes being set up on the page! #MSWL

I love a story that challenges the way people think in non-didactic ways. #MSWL

I'd love to see more cozy fantasy and science fiction with romance. Sweet or medium spicy is good for me. I tend to prefer fantasy-forward rather than romance-forward so sightly more emphasis on the fantasy plot. #MSWL

Just a quick anti- #MSWL

No chosen ones - I want regular people being heroes, stepping up

Not really into fae - it's not an absolute no, but a general preference

Also not really into non humanoid aliens. This is off trend, I know, but it doesn't really hit for me.
