🎟️ Speculative futures not set in American cities

💀 Horror you want to hide from while you keep reading, things that make you say “gross”

🕰️ More mystery in everything! I love a goal. Speculative? Give it a mystery. Contemp romance? Give it a mystery!! Mystery? Go ahead and slap another mystery in there, baby!!!

📽️ Tightly paced, high-tension character driven stories you can’t put down. Slice of life is not for me

🌈 Romantasy and speculative queer love stories. I love space ships/fantasy kingdoms but what I love more is knowing how many beds are in the ship/castle

🤌 Characters who kiss (or should) but dont👏 trust👏 each👏 other👏

As 4/15, I am completely caught up on queries.

Still looking for author/illustrators!

I'm very hungry for MG and YA non-fiction.

We are going back to the moon. Send me your space race non-fiction! The Right Stuff for kids! Voyager 1 is turning 50 soon! Give me SPACE!

Speculative stories - I'm NOT a good fit for rigid dystopias full of government control and categorization of the populace.

Please send me speculative worlds that look like ours with One Big Change. Show me the human response to disaster, politics, or climate change. #MSWL

Since I'm participating in #MoodPitch, I'm opening my inbox to general sub until 8PM! I am NOT open to YA at this time. Would love to see more #NF proposals + happily seeking #illustrators interested in creating coloring/activity #books geared toward #mindfulness! #MSWL

Agents, here is my MSWL! Can’t wait to connect with you! ✨ #mswl #editor

I am pretty picky with my YA spec fic interests, and it's sort of an "I'll know it when I see it" situation. That being said, I tend toward contemporary fantasy, horror, and/or relatively grounded narratives that feature some kind of speculative twist (i.e.: CEMETERY BOYS).

Here it is! The #MSWL thread!

The broadest strokes are that I'm looking for Adult romance; YA romcoms, contemporary, and the odd spec fic; and MG contemporary and fantasy. Specifics below.

Gothics and dark academia!! Please!! Whether they’re speculative or not, whether they lean more into horror or into romance, I’m very flexible with these two subgenres and want to see them all.

For the basics, I represent: MG horror, mysteries, & thrillers; YA SFF, horror, mysteries, & thrillers; adult SFF, horror, mysteries, & thrillers; select YA/adult GN; and select adult NF. More niche wants below ⬇️

#MSWL @greyhausagency is actively looking for single title Women's Fiction, and Contemporary Romance. If you want to write category/series, make sure to research those lines and be clear in your query why your story fits the specific line.

#MSWL - some specifics but it doesn’t mean I’m not open to other things
F/F romances — especially adult romances
Thrillers/mysteries
Historicals from underrepresented voices
Adult light fantasies
Feminist stories
Author/illustrator GN
Stories w/ speculative elements
