✨ 2025 HORROR #MSWL ✨ I’m really excited to find some new horror authors this year, so here are some specifics about my favorite kinds of horror, including my favorite tropes, books, movies, and shows, as well as some things I’m always looking for across all genres.

Just a reminder, while I am open to all speculative fiction, I'm really looking to fill some *specific* areas:

High heat romantasy
Non-western fantasy
YA + MG horror/horror romance
YA + MG mystery/thriller

(Here are some past visual #MSWL )

*note, I do not represent these books*

8/ HORROR: I'm new to this as a recovering scaredy-cat. Go easy on me with the gore and violence! But give me the psychological Lynchian vibes; unsettling, surreal, off-kilter. I'm also down for monsters & vampires with a unique hook. Paranormals like "Insidious," w/ blurred lines of reality.

Mostly, I'm looking for upmarket and literary fiction in a lot of categories, including mysteries, speculative, historical and horror. If you blend some of these genres together--amazing! I also like upmarket and literary fiction that doesn't fall into a genre category. #MSWL

1/ First things first: my name is Ginger and I'm an agent at Movable Type Management. I represent books for adults (sorry, no YA/MG/Kidlit) across all genres. I'm looking for commercial and upmarket women's fiction—especially thrillers, rom-coms, mysteries and select horror...

So excited for #MSWL day today! I'll post separate threads with specifics for each genre, but here's a big picture look at what I'm acquiring:
- horror
- romance
- mysteries
- thrillers
- cultural criticisms / narrative nonfiction / true crime
- lifestyle guides / gift books

Can't wait! 💖💖

Happy #MSWL ! I’d LOVE to see some more YA horror and mysteries in my inbox. Check out my wishlist below! Excited to see your stories🥳🥳

I’m still looking for a BIPOC vampire horror with social commentary. Anything in the vein of The Wicked and The Willing. #MSWL

Happy #MSWL day!

I’m an associate agent at FinePrint. Authors I’d love to find:

🧟 horror of all kinds
✨ a South Asian romcom
😈 something so darkly funny I’ll feel bad for laughing

Happy #MSWL Day! See below for what I'm looking for. Please stick to this list.

NOTE: for Women's Fiction: In Five Years is a Rebecca Serle book.

I'm open to elements of horror if they are psychological, suspenseful and/or humorous. But I'm definitely not one to read anything gory or slasher-ish. #mswl

Happy #MSWL Day!
I'm a Senior Editor at Diversion Books acquiring adult genre fiction.
Agents, I'd love to find:
-a darkly funny thriller with a female protagonist
-psychological suspense
-historical fantasy set around the founding of the U.S., from a BIPOC perspective
-feminist horror and retellings
-super spicy romantasy
-any thriller, sci-fi/fantasy, horror by a Latine writer

I'm currently closed to queries and won't be fully participating in #mswl Day, but when I reopen I'll be on the lookout for:
- YA romcoms with depth and shenanigans
- heist novels
- literary horror
- author/illustrators working on picture books and graphic novels

I updated my #mswl in advance of manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social day today! www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/je...

Hi, this is Cheyenne at Handspun Lit participating in #mswl ! I'd love:
- epic romantasy that centers historically excluded voices
- horrormance
-indigenous voices and stories (esp. in fantasy and horror)

White Whale project: THE SADDLE CLUB meets RIVALS, something super raunchy and fun

cont.>>

—Stories that examine contemporary issues using horror/speculative elements as the vehicle (think Jordan Peele or Stephen Graham Jones)
—Sentient plants or natural settings with a sinister undertone (a la Annihilation)—bonus if it speaks to our climate crisis without being too heavy handed
3/6 #MSWL
