Truth: I'm struggling with dystopian fiction in my submissions. The kids these days seem to want it. But I feel like my entire early agenting career was dystopian. (I sold...quite a few.) I'm not against it, but I'm also not sure what new avenues would be interesting to me.Honestly the more I think about it, the more I'd like a genre within genre. Like a rom-com set in a dystopian future (🤯). Or a murder mystery. That would be more interesting to me than "teen takes down oppressive futuristic system."

Open to near-future dystopian (but not post-apocalyptic) with social critique, magic, or both (BLOOD LIKE MAGIC by Liselle Sambury, INTERNMENT by Samira Ahmed.).
Sparingly open to higher fantasy if very detailed, atmospheric, accessible (A FORGERY OF ROSES by Jessica S. Olson).

I want to see more dystopian-esque books tackling the patriarchy and oppressive religious institutions, but through the lens of colonialism. Those institutions subjugated countless people and destroyed so much of our history and culture and it would be nice to see it called out.#mswl please I’d love to see more of this

Before I open up to queries, I thought I’d share my shiny new #MSWL : manuscriptwishlist.com/?post_type=msw…

Where are you #dystopian fiction writers? Bring me into a nightmarish world where extremist #political views go mainstream & metastasize into #authoritarianism. Know your #history #MSWL
Literary Agent
Strange family legends, strange towns, strange and atmospheric worlds, strange societies, strange laws, perhaps even dystopian, but leans literary. #MSWL

Literally can't help myself, I love dystopian so much. Thinking about all the reservoirs drying up & climate change, I'm interested to see dystopias about parched worlds, little water. I've seen and passed on some before. Any of those that have been revised may query again. #MSWL
