I would love to see more horror or light speculative fiction in my inbox with sea monsters, sea creatures, or a deep sea element! 🌊🐙🪼 #mswl

Before closing to queries at the end of the month I’d love to see more botanical/eco horror with non-western fantasies & folklore. I’m also looking for deep sea horror, covens, inventive magical realism with mystical elements, & works that lean on lush purple prose. #MSWL

Mermaids as horror. Strip the male gaze and recognize them for what they are: predators with the ability to use tools. #MSWL

“I’m always looking for more psychological horror, especially anything featuring haunted houses. Think JUST LIKE HOME by Sarah Gailey, THE SEPTEMBER HOUSE by Carissa Orlando, or MEXICAN GOTHIC by Silvia Moreno-Garcia.”

Hyper specific #MSWL time 🦍 I have been heavily invested in the 100 men vs 1 gorilla discourse over the last few days and I would be HIGHLY interested in a laugh out loud battle royale style comedy horror where 100 dude bros are dropped onto an island to fight 1 gorilla but then things go hilariously wrong for this group of chads as they try scheme after scheme to kill this gorilla. If this is your book lets talk!!!

Maybe because these times are so horrifying but for YA, I’m really craving an atmospheric, layered horror mystery with the beautiful and lush but creepy vibes of Midsommar or The Honeys, even better if it’s romantic & queer #mswl

🕯️ Horror (that lingers): If it's atmospheric, unsettling, or emotionally resonant, I'm in! I'm drawn to nuanced stories where the "monster" says something about us.

Also always open to genre-blends!

Reminder to #agents that I'm still on the lookout for more adult horror in my inbox! Give me all the gore, psychological suspense, grounded sci-fi, body horror, haunted objects/houses! #mswl I want it all!

I've been hearing about "genre-bending horror" a lot, particularly horror-romance and horror-comedy. I'm curious to see some novels in those categories! I'm looking for both YA and Adult horror novels.

I'm open to new genres and categories! First up: Horror.

I love literary, psychological horror. I've described my taste as "Is the magic a metaphor? Oh no, it's real and she's literally eating her abusive ex." Huge fan of folk horror and speculative explorations of structural marginalization.
