#MSWL round two!
This time for graphic novels 👀

I looked at this list again to see if there was anything I wanted to add to it or my #MSWL (there was! I added one new item to the "cravings" page and linked to that page and the "likes" page on my general MSWL)...and what I wouldn't do for stories that hit one or more of these things 🙏🙏🙏

As a history and foreign language teacher, I’m drawn to prehistoric, ancient, medieval, and modern history, especially the cultural side. I focus on art, traditions, beliefs, music, and other expressions that show how societies interact, evolve, and contribute to one another. #MSWL

Happy #MSWL , #writingcommunity ! Sharing what I look for, recent reads, and my favorite authors.

Don't see your book in my #MSWL ? No worries! I want to see your work if it has a compelling voice, pacing, and plot.

Since it's #MSWL day and I intend to open to queries soon (as soon as I finish considering the submissions still in my inbox!), I updated my #MSWL profile:
manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/thais-afonso/

I like 19th and 20th century historical fiction, especially if it's combined with another genre, like mystery, speculative or horror. #MSWL

I enjoy books with a psychological bent, whether it's psychological horror, a nonfiction book about psychology, or just a book with really rich characters. #MSWL

#MSWL I'm over winter and ready for some summer vibes in my reading. Romance? Yes! Horror? Yes! Give me two people falling in love at the beach or bad things happening at summer camp. I'm open!

#MSWL Witches! In all kinds of stories. Cozy, dark, horror, romance, historical, mystery, dual timelines, literally whatever you got, I want to see it.

#MSWL I love that paranormal romance is making a comeback, and am interested in seeing speculative romance of all stripes. I'm open to both cozy OR the darker end of the spectrum, as long as the stakes are high and immediate.

Some faves: Sangu Mandanna, Ashley Poston, Ali Hazelwood, Lana Harper

I'd love to see more surrealism and fabulism in my inbox. #MSWL

I love all manner of mysteries: literary suspense, noir, historical, psychological thrillers, cozies, etc. #MSWL

I'm more drawn to upmarket and literary fiction than commercial fiction. Really I just want a strong voice and strong characters. #MSWL

I love hilarious writing, whether it's a fresh rom-com or cozy mystery. Bring on the funny! #MSWL

Historical fiction is also always a #MSWL . I'd love to see stories in some new time periods (esp 1930s, 1950s) and ones that are drawing parallels and making history relevant to our current world. Always love to see dual timelines!

If Bonnie Garmus, Kristin Hannah, or Kate Morton are comps, hmu!

Though I sometimes represent younger children's books for existing clients, I am currently seeking out just YA and adult books. #MSWL

I enjoy all manner of horror novels: psychological horror, cosmic horror, folk horror, horror-romance, horror-comedy, ghosts, etc. #MSWL

Happy manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social #MSWL Day! Check out my wishlist HERE: serarivers.com/mswl/ I have a lot of wishes on my list, but I'm most eager for #subversive #horror in the vein of Jordan Peele and work by marginalized creators! I'm open to adult #fiction #queries 1st 7 days each month

Mystery / suspense / thrillers are always on my #MSWL . I love immersive settings that drive the plot and psychological stories that employ well-worn tropes in new and interesting ways.

Some perennial favorites: Liz Moore, S. A. Cosby, Tana French, Mary Kubica, Ashley Elston, Kimi Cunningham Grant

Though I'm not the right person for full on fantasy or sci-fi, I like books that incorporate speculative elements and are set in the real world. #MSWL
