2. Horror across the board: Spooky stories for MG, lyrical & atmospheric YA horror, adult horror that will surprise me—literary-leaning writing with propulsive plots. I am open to & love nearly all kinds of horror.

I usually prefer contemporary or near-historical realism, but will sometimes consider speculative fiction, fantasy, psych thrillers, lite dystopian, literary horror, and paranormal (especially dealing with ghosts). #MSWL

Hey friends, I'm a little pitch contest-ed out (I'm sorry!!!) but I *would* love to see some adult queer and BIPOC horror in my QM. I'll be closing to queries at the end of May to go through my inbox, so please do send me yours if you feel I'd be a good fit! #mswl

Pivoting from eating among the rich to just plain eating the rich (particularly while we’re on the subject of Forbidden Meat Rooms) I’m always looking for luxury foodie horror. #mswl - with uncompromising social commentary, with sharp wit, and with a strong stomach

My MerMay #mswl: adorable PB with synchronized swimming mermaids. Adult feminist horror about douchebags who go on boys’ fishing trip and scary mermaid who hunts them. That is all.

• Horror and supernatural fiction that radically represents and explores queer, female, and BIPOC rage
• Books that slide adeptly between humor and poignancy—if a book can make me laugh on one page and cry on the next, it wins my whole heart!

Finished Haunting of Bly Manor and would love to see something like this in my query box!

#mswl I am especially on the hunt for adult literary horror, with lots of psychological twisty-ness.
