For YA:

- I’m looking for any and all kinds of fantasy, from grim dark to the lightest, fluffiest contemporary fantasy

- I’m looking for Gothic stories. I love the concept of monsters, the uncanny, the way it delves into the characters

- I’m also looking for supernatural #MSWL

Here's your second #MSWL! "Amanda would love to see submissions that feature coming-of-age stories like Stranger Things, stories that trend more psychological than bloody, and fresh takes on Gothic or haunted house stories." @wensday95

bog bodies, the age of sail, westerns (centering BIPOC and/or queer characters only please), stories about sports teams (that are maybe haunted??), gothic romances, medieval pilgrimages and any combination thereof!

I would love to see a gothic fairytale retelling of Rappaccini's Daughter in my inbox. #MSWL

Last night I procrastinated so much on Actual Things (cleaning? life? etc) that I made myself a website 👀 taragonzalez.com

“Gothic fiction with possibly a modern storyline, too (like THE LITTLE STRANGER by Sarah Waters).” @carlywatters #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

The top three things I'd love to see more of in my query inbox, in no particular order 📚 #MSWL

1. Romance of any subgenre, especially if it's queer or polyamorous
2. Contemporary fantasy with unique magic systems and lore
3. Gothic horror, particularly from marginalized voices

I would also take a gothic horror like this #MSWL

I feel like I'm just going to constantly retweet this until I find what I'm looking for in historical fiction. Even open to a gothic horror novel with BIPOC set in the 18th and 19th centuries. #MSWL

More gothic suspense please! I loved The Au Pair and The Wife Upstairs. #mswl

#MSWL Can I have a super sexy, atmospheric, gothic romance, please? Maybe even featuring gargoyles or another creature we don't usually see in them.

I'd like to see historical mysteries/crime novels, and historical romances. I'm always keen on the gothic and the hidden corners of history. #mswl

I'm early this year, and I don't care. All I've wanted to do in this blazing heat is wear sweaters, drink hot tea, and watch scary movies. So, start sending those spooky projects my way! I would be particularly interested in any murdery, gothic, witchy nonfiction books. #mswl

ME TOO! #MSWL

I didn't realize it until just this moment, but I desperately need a fresh, haunted, gothic take on Whatever Happened to Baby Jane. #MSWL

Check out my #MSWL!

Gothic/Dark Academia:

Think Crimson Peak, Edgar Allen Poe, The Haunting of Bly Manor, Mexican Gothic, Ninth House, Ace of Spades, dark Gossip Girl, & Addams Family!

Give me a heavy atmosphere & aesthetic.

#MSWL All the #Romance for @CityOwlPress #MysticOwl <3 paranormal, fantasy, sci fi, steampunk, gothic, etc! MUST be #Adult or #NewAdult, heat levels should be sensual to steamy, and word counts need to be UNDER 75k! Link to submit in my profile.

#MSWL I'd love a gothic romance set in a location full of culture/history and featuring a dark and damaged hero(es?) reminiscent of Wrath! (Doesn't have to be a vampire, but no ghosts, please!)

Agent pals! I am hungry for new, exciting acquisitions. I'm actively looking for... #MSWL
