#MSWL day! To start I’m on the lookout for high-concept MG, YA, and adult fiction. More on what that means here: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-conc…Within that realm, I’m looking for pop fiction, contemporary, suspense, mystery, thriller, horror, women’s fiction #mswl

And I like a little genre mixing, so send me your upmarket historical mysteries and psychological sci-fi horror and magical realism retelling of Hamlet. #MSWL

I said it the other day and I'll say it again, I'd love to get more coming-of-age horror. Though I like coming-of-age mixed with mystery too, like the brilliant novel DODGING AND BURNING. #MSWL
Annie Bomke @ABLiterary · 12 Sep 2018
I like literary, high concept sci-fi in the vein of Ray Bradbury or Philip K. Dick. Bradbury in particular was great at really character-driven, emotion-driven stories, whether they were sci-fi, horror or contemporary. That's what I'm looking for in sci-fi. #MSWL

Happy #MSWL Day! I'm looking for commercial, literary and upmarket fiction for both adult and YA. I love mysteries, historical, magical realism, myth retellings, novel retellings, psychological thrillers/suspense, psychological/literary horror...

I’m still looking for a YA macabre fairy tale retelling. A story that combines luxurious fantasy and horror. #MSWL

I’m looking for MG projects, especially sci-fi, fantasy, horror, & contemporary. I’d love more #ownvoices & #diversity too. Make me remember the magic of being a kid. I’d love to see characters dealing with their first crush, first period, and realistic everyday drama. #MSWL 1/4

For more examples of silver bullets that hit my werewolf #mswl heart, see: stories along the lines of Beast of Gévaudan, The Wolfman, An American Werewolf in London... or even perhaps something incorporating elements of, say, the Donner Party. 🐺Since I've been asked, a clarification: I am very much the wrong agent for paranormal romance projects. But I'm here for fantasy, dark fantasy, and horror! #mswl
BookEnds Literary Agency @bookendslit · 10 Aug 2018
@wensday95 wants #Historicalfiction with a slight #speculative or #horror bent like Alma Katsu's THE HUNGER or Sarah Perry's THE ESSEX SERPENT
BONUS: she also wants contemp mystery/thriller where setting is integral like Jane Harper's books or Attica Locke's BLUEBIRD, BLUEBIRD.

The first trailer for Simon Pegg's Slaughterhouse Rulez promises a bloody proper fight.on.io9.com/T5Pb13U pic.twitter.com/Lmnbk60263
Trailer for a new Simon Pegg movie? My day is already 1000% improved.
*cough, cough* Also, writers: This is what I'm talking about for my YA horror #mswl...

As someone who was a spooky sorority girl, I’d love to read more sorority horror. Give me dark sisterhood rituals, socials/formals gone wrong, and sisters teaming up to stop a Ghostface like killer.As someone who attended college without a Greek life, #MSWL

Literary horror involving a flower shop or greenhouse #mswl
