MG: Fun, commercial stories; whimsical Ghibli-like adventure; accessible fantasy; spooky, monster-focused horror

I want sporror (spore-horror, is this a thing) #MSWL

#MSWL an adult psychological horror novel that features dark academia or a secret society at a college

Dreaming of a witchy horror comedy YA novel with a killer ensemble... #mswl

Agents, I'm keen to see more horror from POC and queer authors! Especially keen on any folk, possession or deep-sea horror from a non-Western perspective. #MSWL

"I'm hungry for horror that leans on eerie, atmospheric, and unsettling. MEXICAN GOTHIC by Silvia Moreno-Garcia will forever be a favorite in this space. I don't mind gore, but I'm typically not drawn to it."

"Send me contemporary fiction that gets a little weird, like the virgin birth of SMALL PLEASURES, the animal illness of SHARK HEART, and the eerie horror of OUR WIVES UNDER THE SEA."

I’m also a super-duper realistic horror fan (Scream and Jaws are two of my favorite all-time movies), so I’m here for contemporary realistic slashers that aren’t too gory, thrillers, and whodunnits (Scream is a whodunnit!!) in #YA #MSWL

for my birthday (yesterday, but it still counts!) i am giving myself the gift of doing something a little bit scary: tweeting out my first ever #MSWL 🥹manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/crys…

Mindbending horrors that are mentally scary! Or do you have a comedic horror? I'm here for it!

Horror. Upmarket. Think Victor LaValle’s LONE WOMEN, Stephen Graham Jones’ THE ONLY GOOD INDIANS, and Aly Wilkes’ ALL THE WHITE SPACES. Why? Here’s why. #MSWL 🧵

What am I looking for? Horror, horror, HORROR. Obviously. Also, thriller, suspense, and nonfiction by experts in their fields. So let’s dive in a little more a #MSWL 🧵

🎟️ Speculative futures not set in American cities

💀 Horror you want to hide from while you keep reading, things that make you say “gross”

2023 #MSWL! As a reminder, I represent BIPOC, queer, & marginalized creators making joy for themselves in SFF & horror for MG, YA, Adult, and Graphic Novel.
My existing MSWL is still a mortifyingly perfect encapsulation of my tastes, but this year I'm looking for even MORE:

10 - Horror and dark fantasy – don’t be afraid to let it get weird. Thinking mushrooms growing out of reanimated rabbits à la T. Kingfisher. Aiming for the more atmospheric side of things than all-out gore.
