Adult (cont'd):
- Cozy mystery novels in the vein of @LatinaSleuths' Caribbean Kitchen Mystery series.
- Women's Fiction in the vein of Chanel Cleeton or Sabaa Tahir's All My Rage.
- Horror, horror, horror! Creepy, gory, scary AF! (2/6) #mswl

MG across the board: Heartwarming & funny contemporary, mysteries, humor, horror, adventure, or some blend of all those. Touches of magic.

MG horror, too: Spooky stories, stories that are a little bit creepier than you feel like they should be for middle graders. (More HIDE AND SEEKER than DOLL BONES, if that makes sense? It makes sense to me.)

Adult: Horror of all stripes - psychological, body horror, folk horror, gothic, occult, hauntings, genre blends: horror/mystery, horror/thriller, etc. I gravitate more toward literary & upmarket writing than commercial.

YA: Same as above, basically!

I'll start with horror, because it's what I'm thinking about most these days. I'm looking for horror for all audiences:

-- SELLING SUNSET -- I wonder if someone out there has written a thriller/horror about glamorous realtors meeting untimely ends or getting caught up with solving a murder🤔

-- THE GREAT NORTH -- I'd love to see a novel or book club adult fic about characters out in Alaska or similarly remote landscape. This one I'm genre agnostic on, I'll take humor, horror, thriller, romance, across all age groups (nothing younger than MG).

A #MSWL reminder that I DO rep adult work as well—contemporary fiction, romcoms, thriller/mystery, and horror—and am actively trying to build up that side of my list! 🧵

“Select horror—I’m more interested in psychological elements, but I don’t mind a bit of gore. Anything disturbing or unnerving is up my alley. Novels + collections welcome!” @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

My wishlist in a nutshell: diaspora, liminal spaces, counterintuitive, memoir w/ reportage, food, social horror, mythology, light speculative, NYC stories, historical, contemporary, multigenerational. And always, always prioritizing intersectional work from marginalized writers.

#MSWL (agented only) - YA and adult - Gothic horror or fantasy, would love a fantasy that reads like a fun romp (like This Vicious Grace), vampires, witches, morally gray characters

Officially still acquiring for SMP/Minotaur, now as an assistant editor. More horror submissions please.

Whew, and also, #MSWL but make it horror? 😜🍟

#mswl my kingdom for contemporary MG horror in my inbox... especially with series potential. Excellent ensembles and friendship themes are a bonus!

I think Fresh was one of the best movies I’ve seen in a long time 😌 please send me your horror in this vein #MSWL

“Psychological thrillers with elements of horror (light on the gore).” @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

#MSWL, babes! ❤️🩸

Social horror is my jam #MSWL

By some miracle, I'm nearly caught up with my queries (not that I'm caught up with my to-read pile!) and I'm really hungry to see some more thriller/suspense/horror in my inbox whether adult or young adult! Also horror/spooky middle grade 👀 #MSWL

Lovely agents of Twitter, a reminder that I am actively searching for HORROR! Folk, gothic, historical, haunted houses, death cults, deep sea, cosmic. . . if there's a spooky supernatural element, I want it. #MSWL
