I love the Sunshine Vicram series with my whole dang heart. If you're working on a fun mystery like those books, please keep me in mind when you query. #mswl

"Thriller (legal, medical, political, etc.), Mystery (cozy, private eye, police procedural, etc.)" @CurtisPSLA #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

- History & historical fiction that centers marginalized perspectives!
- Charming, Agatha Christie-esque mysteries!
- Stories exploring the impact of immigration!
- Friendship stories! Whimsical romps! Fun & fast-paced adventures!
- FOOD! Forever & always food!

And of course…

In younger fiction, I’m looking for whimsy and fun, but also smart humor with twisted takes and thrilling mysteries. As always, I will sing the praises of The Owl House until the end of my days, but I also just love most animation out now and I would love to capture that in MG

just a reminder I'm officially opening for queries tomorrow! mainly, I'm looking for sff/horror/mystery/thrillers across MG, YA, & adult, and some select GN and nonfiction. you can find my extended #mswl page below & I look forward to reading!

#ThreeHills focuses on works set in NY State & esp those north of NYC. I'm interested in commercial fiction w/ literary crossover—literary fiction, sci-fi, mystery, & thriller. We do *not* publish romance, fantasy, YA, children’s lit, poetry, drama, or works in translation.

#MSWL So, I do take mysteries/thrillers and detective stories, and a current want is something in the nature of Silver and Opal Country by Chris Hammer, where the place the novel is set is a character in its own right (in that case, the Australian outback).

#MSWL I want a good voice drive YA cozy mystery. Think VERONICA MARS is suddenly in MURDER SHE WROTE.

My areas of expertise are upmarket and literary fiction, women's fiction, mystery, suspense and thriller. I love books w/ strong family focus (found, friends, those you're born with) and home. Even in mystery I love those connections #MSWL

"Cozy mysteries like THE BOOK CLUB MURDERS by Leslie Nagel.”  @CurtisPSLA #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

In my inbox everyday looking for an exciting novel. I'd love an upmarket mystery with complex characters and a hooky crime, or family drama, or something that just catches me by surprise. Here's what I read in 2022. I did not dislike 1 yet. (titles in next tweet) #MSWL

*YA/NA contemporary including royalty! Desperately looking for a book that gives me the same impression as the tv series The Royals
*YA magical realism with witches (think of The Secret Circle)
*YA/NA sweet romance with a feel of the Love, Rosie movie
*NA cozy mystery

#MSWL TV show edition! Psychological thrillers, suspense, horror, mystery. Adult and YA. magic welcome. Things that feel bottled-up and breathless with all the unrevealed secrets... SEVERENCE, PIECES OF HER, YELLOW JACKETS, KNIVES OUT.

Hey writers! I’d love to see more MG and YA, esp mysteries (love Mrytle Hardcastle and TRULY DEVIOUS series), spooky horror (witches over splatterpunk), and character-driven commercial (like Jenny Han or Ash Van Otterloo). #MSWL

It's been a while, but I've updated my #MSWL! Find the link below and in my bio: bit.ly/3vx9lnR #amquerying

"Cozy mysteries for younger audiences—I would love to see millennial protagonists, stories with drag queens, boozy brunches, bachelorette parties, all the things!" @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Adult (cont'd):
- Cozy mystery novels in the vein of @LatinaSleuths' Caribbean Kitchen Mystery series.
- Women's Fiction in the vein of Chanel Cleeton or Sabaa Tahir's All My Rage.
- Horror, horror, horror! Creepy, gory, scary AF! (2/6) #mswl

Adult & YA: Mysteries & thrillers that unfold in isolated settings - a bed & breakfast, ski lodge, cruise ship, cabin in the woods, boarding school, etc.

MG across the board: Heartwarming & funny contemporary, mysteries, humor, horror, adventure, or some blend of all those. Touches of magic.

Adult: Horror of all stripes - psychological, body horror, folk horror, gothic, occult, hauntings, genre blends: horror/mystery, horror/thriller, etc. I gravitate more toward literary & upmarket writing than commercial.

YA: Same as above, basically!
