...And again, blend this in with something else and I am ALL about it. I also have an extreme soft spot for post apocalyptic horror and all things zombie 😍 11/

Adult/YA Horror: It takes a lot to scare me, so hit me with your best shot! I want to be terrified so that I can't sleep. I want sentient settings, scares that mess with your mind, where the lines of reality are blurred...10/

...Also PLEASE send me sci fi horror. I want to be terrified like I was with Dead Space. Show me cosmic terror and science getting out of control, science breaking loose! I want all the chaos! 9/

...fantasy romance/romantasy and obvs anything with horror elements. I also really want queer norm worlds, accessible fantasies and diverse casts (please give me more disability rep in fantasy!) 7/

MG Fantasy: I honestly really love it all, but am really wanting a magic school with diverse cast and magical creatures (esp dragons!!)

MG Horror: Again I love it all, but would love a summer camp setting, haunted house/school, monster hunters and sentient natural settings 4/

My MSWL can be found on, well, MSWL: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/zachary-honey/

In short: I'm still in the thriller game. Looking for rural set thrillers, mysteries, select horror and select historical fiction. Bring it on!

Starting a fresh week with an updated MS wishlist🤩

#MSWL

Inspired by @laurenspieller I would like to say that any story that takes place on a cruise ship is automatically scary, for me. you can do a rom-com but if it's on a cruise ship, I will think it's a horror. Aaand now I want a horror rom com on a ship. #MSWL .

In fiction: speculative, magical realism, horror, romance. In NF: narrative NF, memoir, biography, immigrant stories, cultural commentary, people in history, lesser known professions and crafts (builders, designers, architects), musicians/artists/creators, daredevils, athletes.

Writers: our website is still in development but I want new submissions. #mswl 🧵:

High-concept YA - if it includes & addresses untold histories / historically marginalized characters, all the better

YA horror - ALL OF IT

Literary / commercial-literary horror - see above…

We are back open & I've updated my #mswl and genres I'm looking for. Anything not on the drop-down menu, I am not accepting at the moment.

Seeking #bodyhorror Mona Awad, ROUGE; Silvia Moreno-Garcia, MEXICAN GOTHIC; T. Kingfisher, WHAT MOVES THE DEAD; Augustina Bazterrica, TENDER IS THE FLESH #mswl

I'm still not the best fit for SF (aside from 5-min in the future/grounded SF or the aforementioned horror), or books that are sports-centric or where MC is an athlete. I'm not open to adult fiction (for now), poetry/novels-in-verse, non-fiction, picture books, early readers.

Another #mswl I've been wanting to find forEVER is a genre-blended YA sci-fi/horror akin to Alien (or even The Thing I think would count). Atmospheric, not super tech heavy, isolated, far from home, trapped with an extraterrestrial horror. Those kinda vibes.

I'm always a fan of horror and/or spooky goth vibes. Some faves: Fear Street (books AND Netflix trilogy), Stephen King, The Addams Family, The Thief of Always by Clive Barker, Coraline (movie), early seasons of Supernatural, Final Destination, Anne Rice, Alexis Henderson, etc.

I'm also leaning more heavily into my love of genre fiction, especially fantasy and horror and books that genre-blend. I would love to find more epic fantasy with fantastic world-building, a la Tomi Adeyemi, Claire M. Andrews, Katy Rose Pool, Natasha Ngan, etc.

Psychological thrillers in the vein of THE SILENT PATIENT

Psychological horror, haunted houses, setting as character

Dark academia
