An updated #MSWL thread!

In general, I’m looking for Adult, YA, & MG fiction. I'm drawn to romance, horror, lower SFF, and genre blending & am always looking for more diverse perspectives. I am NOT right for erotica, non-fic, lit fic, or lower MG/chap books.

Specifics below.

I would like to see more queries in my Inbox that offer great escapism, both on the adult as on the YA side: horror, thrillers, mysteries, romance. #MSWL .

✨Exciting news! I'm open to CB's, MG & YA submissions!✨
*No PB's, sorry.

#MSWL - I'm open to anything, but I'm especially looking for funny, horror & romance. A mashup of the 3 in a YA sub would be perfect.💖
Submissions open 1st-21st of each month.

I’d love to see some romantic horror in my inbox. #mswl

Next Friday, 19th of July, I will be open for Upmarket/Literary and Commercial contemporary thrillers with twists, a dash of horror, big stakes, great characters, complex issues, tight story lines. NO COSIES #amquerying #thrillerbooks #MSWL

I love dark crime thrillers, literary horror, suspense, complex espionage tales, genre mash-ups, whether they feature female or male protagonists.

Behold! Here's my highly attractive handwriting illustrating the ✨new categories✨ I'll be open to when I reopen to queries!

I'll soon also be looking for New Adult Contemporary, New Adult Thrillers/Mysteries, & New Adult Horror/Horrormance (not too gruesome though!) #MSWL

I really really really *really* feel horrormance is about to be the next ✨big thing✨ in pub, so – my #mswl is looking hungry for any literary/upmarket versions of that, love stories with dark, twisted, tragic beats (someone comp me IWtV or so help me god!!!) 🖤🩸🦷

MG/YA #MSWL :
☑️ Horror
☑️ SFF (especially afro-futurism & magical realism variety)
☑️ Mysteries/Thrillers (would love some chilling psychological thrillers)
☑️ Historicals with a twist (spec, queer, mystery, etc.)

Writers of thrillers, suspense, horror--both female and male protagonists: I'm a new literary agent (after 19 years as an acquiring editor) looking to help talented authors find their publisher. Let's work together. Email in bio. #amquering

still on a hiatus from this app but wanted to share my current #mswl for my agent friends😊here's what i'm excited about rn:

- genre fiction from POC
- historical fantasy & alt history
- gothic fiction
- romantasy
- mystery-thriller
- horror

*agented subs only*

#MSWL a short middle grade horror from a Canadian citizen or resident about this monstrosity. 8-20k words.

Just saying but if anyone is querying a horror romance with all the spoooky smutty vibes I would love to give that a look #MSWL querymanager.com/query/LCSLiteraryServices

Agents, I’d love to see some queer horror romance in my inbox! Let’s make some Nightfire and Bramble crossovers happen 👀 #mswl

in terms of GENRES and NARRATIVES, I love:

- dark academia
- horror
- gothic, esp. regional gothic
- character-led literary fiction
- historical + alternate history, particularly 19th and 20th century and particularly focused on international, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ stories

I’ve been seeing a lot of fire lookout tower videos and think it’s such a cool environment for a thriller or horror novel #mswl
