For #agents , taking my annual submission reminder from X to bsky to shout out the top of my #mswl is adult horror, especially would love to see more diverse voices, body horror, psychological, camp/humor, novella, story collection, and more. If it sits firmly in horror, I would love to see it!

MSWL (2/?)

All the horror. Particularly humor & sci fi

Creatures features from cultures not often explored (would love an indigenous author focusing on lore from their legends)

Vibes: Mike Flanagan, A24 films, Annabelle, Oculus, Get Out, Hide & Seek, The Ritual, Talk to Me

so for #MSWL I am really looking for more commercial, character driven, humorous picture book stories. These are a good sampling of what I am looking for on my list.

Part 1/

-College set sex advice column book
-hypernormality in Dystopian
-super commercial & humorous picture book
-Bright and colorful art from Illustrators.

I’m drawn to campy, voice-driven stories across genres that mix romance and friendship with a streak of morbid humor. Books that are wickedly fun to read and altogether a good time, with a touch of the macabre wrapped in charm. #MSWL

"Novels that are both dark and humorous, in the vein of MY SISTER, THE SERIAL KILLER and THE BANDIT QUEENS."

I am also on the hunt for stories filled with humor, a diverse cast of characters, and illustrated chapter books.

I'm also interested in humorous stories that stretch the imagination, creepy picture books that allow young readers to explore fear, tension, and the unknown in a safe and fun way, and inventive/clever nonfiction, particularly STEAM themes and narrative nonfiction.

"Across genres, I love a voice with a dark sense of humor. Whether it's witty, morbidly funny, or satirical."

Maybe it’s because there’s so much doom and gloom in the world right now, but I’d love to see YA in my inbox with more humor. I want more cozy fantasies with light-heartedness, sass, or even snark, not constant death and destruction. #MSWL

Newly opening to: Picture Books!

I'm looking for dry humor that's accessible enough for children to understand but still clever enough for an adult to enjoy while reading it over and over. I like cozy, warm, gentle, soft art styles, but I'm also willing to be surprised.
🧵/

Shorter, kitschy, high concept books that celebrate adolescence for young readers. Books that speak to their big emotions and daydreams. Humorous and playful and adventurous and classic. Think of what media used to be like in the early 2000s-memorable, lovable, serialized

I’m looking for immersive settings, a strong love story, & a high-concept plot. Give me adventure, humor, and swoon-worthy romance—whether it’s a daring quest, a fairy tale reimagining, or a kingdom on the brink of change. I want magic, unforgettable characters, and a romance that feels epic. #MSWL

✨️ Princess Bride-style banter and swoon-worthy romance
✨ Ella Enchanted vibes w/ adventure, humor, & lighthearted magic
✨ A headstrong heroine who refuses to be a damsel
✨ A dashing, mysterious [x] with a heart of gold
✨ Twists, disguises, & a fairy tale ending
