At last, I have a profile on ManuscriptWishList.com. My current wish list is live, though I'll continue to tweet new and specific items as they come to me. #MSWL

BUT, I’d especially love to find contemporary commercial YA (horror, thriller, romance etc.) that is really nailing whatever genre it is - in a fun and interesting way.

In horror, I’m looking for stories that lean slightly literary and are strange/weird in a disconcerting, unsettling kind of way, where the MC can never get their bearings in their world because society or the laws or people/monsters, etc. are super unusual or disturbing. #MSWL

Science fiction that blends with another genre (example: romance, horror, fantasy, mystery, thriller). #MSWL

-character-driven YA sci-fi, especially if it explores a theme such as our relationship to technology or what it means to be human
-YA sci-fi blended with any other genre—sci-fi horror, sci-fi fantasy (I’d die for a YA Gideon the Ninth!), sci-fi mystery/thriller, etc.

I want a YA sci-if horror with this sound in it. #mswl

Good morning! Finally built out my #MSWL page for all curious minds (and agents and writers): manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/iren…

#MSWL A horror/ sci fi based around cave diving.

I also need this! #MSWL

Ooh, can you imagine a horror with a train and this vibe?

If so, #MSWL

My MSWL is not up yet, but I will be representing YA, NA, and Adult. Please send me Fantasy, Paranormal Romance (in a contemporary setting), Action and Adventure, Thrillers, LGBTQ+, Horror and Sci Fi.

#MSWL I am open to queries! Looking for Adult and Crossover SFF, and Adult Speculative that blends either WF, horror, literary fiction, or suspense with speculative elements.
Looking forward to seeing your work!
