I'd like to see more upmarket horror in the vein of Mexican Gothic, The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires and The Return. #mswl

Delighted to announce that our colleague Meredith is now accepting submissions in the genres of young adult, sci-fi, fantasy, speculative and horror fiction. More details here: cwagency.co.uk/agent/meredith…

For horror (MG and Adult only), think psychological or creature, not gore. I don't like shock for shock sake, and I want characters I can care about. If they die, make me FEEL it

Adult

GN - all genres but especially horror, dark fantasy, or LGBTQ+

Novels - romance, contemporary, historical, and MAYBE fantasy. Super picky there. Really want horror like Babadook or Midnight Mass or Haunting of Hill House

#amagenting #mswl

YA GN

again, I am dying for more LGBTQ+ and historical; would love contemporary, fantasy, and horror here, too

Think outside the box. For YA, it needs to be something that totally immerses me in the characters or the world or the emotions

I enjoy pop culture, and I’m not immune to the charms of film and TV. I especially enjoy TCM and Criterion and quirky smart horror comedies 9/

Someone asked me what kind of horror I want.

This would work. #MSWL

#HopePunk: definitely at the top of my #MSWL

I’m getting to the pandemic stage where I not only want fun and light, but also some smart, elevated horror. #mswl 😱

I also want them all.

Can't get enough #YA #Horror. #MSWL

#MSWL Clever social satire that takes us behind the curtain of worlds of privilege and skewers them with a sharp wit and kickass protagonist. Would love to see more social horror that applies thriller/horror tropes. See: NOTHING TO SEE HERE, SUCH A FUN AGE, OTHER BLACK GIRL

ADULT HORROR

🕸️Psychological horror, rather than gore-y horror

🏖️ Summery settings not usually associated with horror

👩Relatable characters facing complicated moral dilemmas

👾 Cool monsters! Scary ghosts!

Thank you so much! Good question -- I don't have a #MSWL, but my interests are outlined in my bio here:) tridentmediagroup.com/agents/tess-we…

Middle Grade #MSWL

🐅 animal stories*
🐅 folklore inspired fantasy
🐅 ~ best friends forever ~
🐅 creepy horror

*Not talking animals; realistic stories about animals.

Graphic “Novel” #MSWL

🍂 realistic teen stories
🍂 graphic memoir
🍂 graphic nonfiction
🍂 psychological horror

Note: I’m currently only looking for projects created by author/illustrators (one creator both writing and illustrating the book).

I’m always open to horror or stories with a darker edge. I typically enjoy horror that digs into larger ideas or concepts – something like THE BABADOOK or IT FOLLOWS films would be really exciting #mswl

I would also sell my soul for a horror romcom. #mswl (opening to queries soon)
