I'm still dying for a space horror #MSWL

If you have space horror, please submit to my special invite link pinned on my profile. Must be set in space!

Halloween season is beginning. I’m getting into the mood. I’d love to see some scary, creepy, thrilling horror manuscripts in our submissions. #MSWL @serendipitylit

✨Adult MSWL✨

I would love to see horror or projects with series potential. Though my adult list is very full at the moment and is where I’m least looking to grow at the moment!

Horror:

I represent MG, young adult, & adult speculative fiction (including science fiction, fantasy, horror, & cross-genre books). In all age groups, my taste gravitates toward speculative fiction with subtle romance & lush prose. Horror, mystery, & romance elements are my soft spot.

😱On the horror side, I'm always looking for stories that explore difficult human experiences and heavy emotions. The Haunting of Bly Manor/Hill House are always my favourite comps.

UPDATE: I'm open to adult horror & adult nonfiction queries through Query Manager! Send me spooky and/or psychological horror. I LOVE dark!!! I’m okay with gore as long as it fits with the story and isn’t just there for the ick factor. #MSWL 1/2

I expect romance, even horror romance, to bring joy. That means a HEA, yes, but also if it’s past campy melodrama, it’s probably too dark for my tastes. And if one of the protagonists dies, it’s women’s fiction/upmarket, and I’m not looking to sign those. #MSWL

I love toxic homoerotic situationships. I'm sorry. This is Hannibal's fault (still). Basically, if you’re obsessed with ITWV, yes, that. I’m looking for that in Horror and Fantasy, though. Not romance. #MSWL

I would also love to see more of:

Space horror. Please. Pretty please?

#MSWL

Tomorrow is the FIRST, so despite not being caught up yet, I'm opening to queries again for one week!
#MSWL for non-fiction, I'm looking for personal growth and wellness projects--women's health, brain health, and longevity.
Fiction = horror, fantasy, and psychological thrillers!

SOMEONE SEND ME A DINO GHOST STORY! Especially if it’s adult horror. #mswl

Romance! Happy to consider any and all queer and BIPOC stories, would especially love a cozy fantasy with romance, a horror romance, something speculative/five minutes in the future.

Anything that can be comped to Talia Hibbert, Helen Hoang, Emily Henry, etc. #MSWL

All things horror. Give me your slashers, body horror, horror as a vehicle for exploring trauma, psychological horror, horror in film and tv.

Think horror in the vein of Malice House, Manhunt, The Shining, or Maeve Fly. I want it all! #MSWL

In YA I’m also looking for:
-mystery
-horror
-retellings/reimaginings (that don’t stick TOO CLOSE to the source)

Genre-blending narratives
-mysteries/suspense/thrillers set in more sci-fi or fantasy worlds
-speculative romance
-horror elements blended into SFF (cosmic horror-esque)
-surprise me!!
