Dark fantasy or magical realism à la Pan’s Labryinth is another love of mine. I’ve been reading the novelization by Guillermo del Toro and Cornelia Funke, and it has that creepy, ethereal feel of magical realism and folklore mixed with a dash of horror. #MSWL Again YA/MG ONLY.

When it comes to graphic novels (for all ages—MG, YA, or Adult), most of the submissions I receive are fantasy. I would love to work on more realistic stories. Maybe even some horror! #MSWL

My #mswl hasn't changed - still wanting books about clowns & queerness related to trickster figures, still wanting all types of found families, still wanting MG horror & spoop, I would LOVE more picture book illustrators, & a comedic YA protag coping w ED (incidental, not plot).

YA Horror where the thing to fear is more than just a dude with a machete. Something chilling and lurking, like It Follows or The Babadook. #MSWL

I’d cut off my arm for a contemporary thriller/horror novel where the protagonist joins their high school/college’s soccer team and finds out it’s a cult #mswl

Some things about me to get a sense of who I am? Here’s a weirdly specific #MSWL thread:

-Horror movies & novels of ALL stripes for ALL ages. I particularly love the recent spate of movies using horror to express grief and anxiety, a la Hereditary, The Babadook, and Midsommar.
