🩸 Crime 🚓

Likewise, crime with a standout quality is always welcome, whether police procedural, historical crime, detective, psychological crime or crime thriller. Nothing overly gratuitous please!

#MSWL

🥶 Thriller 🚪

I’m always looking for anything hooky within thriller for both adults and young adults. Locked room thrillers, like The Sanatorium and The Guest List, are especially welcome.

#MSWL

🤔 Psychological Thriller 🧠

I’m looking for psychological thriller and domestic suspense which is twisty and has a unique hook. I love an unreliable narrator and the feeling of not knowing who to trust. Shock, surprise and confuse me in the best ways!

#MSWL

🏰 Historical Fiction/Saga 🛡

I prefer HF that is character-driven rather than action or ‘battlefield’ heavy and I have a particular penchant for WW2 historical fiction (think Markus Zusak and Heather Morris).

Morally grey, complex and flawed characters are a plus!

#MSWL

🦊 Cosy Crime 🕵️

I’d absolutely love cosy crime from *any* period, whether contemporary like Janice Hallett and Richard Osman, traditional Golden Age murder mystery, or historical crime. The more suspects and red herrings, the better!

Half-formed #MSWL thought: give me a novel or story collection that addresses the subculture of shitty Asian frat boys (who grow into shitty Asian finance bros) with both well-deserved derision but also a touch of empathy that acknowledges why and how they got to be like that

Hi send me your campus novels set at mid-tier or otherwise decidedly non-elite institutions, thanks! Would also consider nonfiction taking a critical perspective on the value vs. real cost of prestige academia, for students and for society #MSWL

New #MSWL (mine) just dropped: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/roma… Special bonus feature: find out which musical always makes me cry!

Anyway if you're writing a coming of age (coming of self!) story about young protagonists or older protagonists, for young readers or older readers, that challenges traditional ideas of what "coming of age" means, who gets to do it, how, and when...send it to me #MSWL #AmAgenting

#MSWL 21 and 32 ONLY (haha jk...unless?)

I cannot tag this hard enough #MSWL

I am looking for hooky cosy crime and historical fiction set in/around WW2.

Morally grey, complex and flawed characters are a plus!

#mswl

Just spent way too long engrossed in someone's 543-page dissertation on the purpose and prevalence of "like" across various national dialects of English, so this is now an official #MSWL call to any linguist whose work might interest the general public and not just nerds like me

While I am on the lookout for these things always, and you are certainly welcome to query me, I am *not* a full fledged agent and so will be working collaboratively with someone else from my agency, just for transparency's sake.

Non-fiction wise, I love an in-depth examination of an issue that we're currently dealing with (EMPIRE OF PAIN is a perfect example). A fresh take on the climate crisis that I wish I had found myself is WARMTH.
