I also enjoy fantasy if it's fun and original, either grounded, or with amazing world building and something to say about the world. I get a lot of submissions loaded with familiar tropes, so originality will stand out. #mswl

2025 #MSWL :
-an YA Fantasy that feels fresh
-a sweeping epic YA romance
-a great YA mystery (LOVE Rian Johnson and if you can comp to the vibes there, even better)
-a YA mermaid book
-College set sex advice column book
-hypernormality in Dystopian
-spooky adjacent picture book
-weird and quirky

Anything with a complicated, decades-long (or even centuries long if Fantasy/Paranormal) lesbian situationship at the core of the story. Yes, I’m an Agatha All Along fan. #MSWL

Happy #MSWL day! One thing I'd love to see in my query box is a cohesive fantasy or urban fantasy heist novel with paranormal elements, an immersive world, and all the feels. YA/NA/Adult

The rest of my wishlist can be seen at my pinned post, along with my query link. Please don't pitch in replies!

Fantasy/Speculative: I'm looking for magic & magical beings alongside mortals in charming places or unforgettable time periods, like Katherine Arden’s The Winter of the Witch, or VE Schwab’s The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue (doesn't have to be witches—fae, djinn, gods are all good options) #MSWL

Finally, I want more fantasy: fresh and unexpected takes on romantasy and more cozy fantasy. I'm pretty particular about my fantasy as it needs to be immediately accessible and character focused, instead of solely world-building focused. I'm not drawn to classic fantasy unless there's a twist #mswl

Happy #MSWL Day!
I'm a Senior Editor at Diversion Books acquiring adult genre fiction.
Agents, I'd love to find:
-a darkly funny thriller with a female protagonist
-psychological suspense
-historical fantasy set around the founding of the U.S., from a BIPOC perspective
-feminist horror and retellings
-super spicy romantasy
-any thriller, sci-fi/fantasy, horror by a Latine writer

Im Gabriella Melendez and I’m an assistant agent at greatdoglit.bsky.social . I represent genre fiction YA, NA, into adult (usually characters from 16-30). I’m especially interested in Fantasy, Cont. Romance and anything with Latinx representation! #mswl

I'd like to see fantasy that tackles climate change. I see it a lot in sci-fi and horror, but less so in fantasy, and I think it could be interesting and unique. Any age category! #mswl

I updated my #mswl in advance of manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social day today! www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/je...

Hi, this is Cheyenne at Handspun Lit participating in #mswl ! I'd love:
- epic romantasy that centers historically excluded voices
- horrormance
-indigenous voices and stories (esp. in fantasy and horror)

White Whale project: THE SADDLE CLUB meets RIVALS, something super raunchy and fun

cont.>>

Hey it's #MSWL Day! Great to have manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social here. What I'm looking for:

-YA thriller/low fantasy blends; think RIPLEY meets TUCK EVERLASTING.
-YA historical procedural. I want a teen ALIENIST.
-MG dark fantasy GNs. An 11 year old exorcist? Sure!
-Weird! Weird everything!

...
* Grounded fantasy / Sci-fi - "grounded" being the key word here
* Stories with surprising twists that connect to character motivation - not a twist for the twist's sake
* I'd still love something in the vein of the movie Sugar and Spice - if you haven't seen it, you should
... (#MSWL)

I'm participating in #MSWL Day! I've been working through my queries, and I'm almost ready to re-open. (Estimate: March 10) I'll be posting throughout today, and I'm so excited to see new subs in these areas: #fantasy #speculative #adventure #historical #mystery #suspense #horror

Hi #querying #booksky authors! I’m a literary agent always looking to fall in love with new manuscripts. Here is my current #MSWL : www.btaylorbooks.com/mswl

Highlighting some #mswl in either YA, NA or adult: horror of any variety. Looking for really unique (new twists) romantasy, fantasy from soft to epic. Also where are my sci-fi space opera writers? 🤣 In addition to my other tweets on what I want.

#WritingCommunity #amquerying

I am looking for thrillers and crime fiction of all types; book club and historical fiction that moves me and makes me think (including novels featuring fantasy/mythology/science fiction). In non-fiction, books which open up the conversation and take me on a journey. #mswl

#mswl

I'm actively acquiring and looking primarily for these genres at the moment! #mswl #thrillers #horror #fantasy #publishing #fiction #querying
