Ok, agents and authors. It's me! Your friendly, local editor. I'm starting to build my 2026 list. Interested in what I'm looking for? Sure, you are. Here's my #mswl .

manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/ariell-cacciola/

#MSWL for March 2024:
In ADULT Fiction:
👁‍🗨 Mystery:
- Cozy
- Traditional (murder) mystery
- Caper (story focus is crime plan/execution
- Crime Mystery (w/ POV of member of criminal underworld)
- Noir (gritty, atmospheric w/professional investigator POV)

Agents and/or authors.

Please send me train thrillers like BULLET TRAIN, or something LEON-like with assassins or gangs.

Am always on the lookout for crime adjacent novels set in South Central LA, NYC, South Korea or Japan.

Or maybe some 90s Seattle-set grunge noir.
#MSWL

I've updated my #MSWL page for their great new platform and look forward to queries - especially if it's a multicultural love story, a
BIPOC perspective on history (fiction or nonfiction), a thriller in an unusual time and place...
Happy #MSWL Day! 👇🤗 manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/Jess…

Good news #MSWL has my new post up. manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/anis… I hope this helps anyone having trouble getting to know what I am working on.

I really enjoy noir mysteries. They are so sinister and devious and delicious. I really enjoy flawed characters that you should hate but kinda love. Send me your messed up, nefarious, duplicitous, shrewd, sneaky, deceitful, calculating, manipulative, scheming, anti-heroes! #mswl

I am open for submissions, so please send me your books! Find out about me, my taste & what's at the top of my #manuscriptwishlist here:

I just finished WESTSIDE last night, and it has a lot of qualities I'm looking for: historical, noir, speculative element, gorgeous writing, great voice. #MSWL

I seriously need more country noir. #MSWL

#querytip alert! Gripping adult fic is MY JAM. Love a tense psych thriller, domestic noir, and have room for the right police procedural. As ever, I'm yearning for exciting fantasy projects and swoon-worthy romance. #DVpit #MSWL

"An edge-of-your-seat noir about an agoraphobic coven's adventure to transcend their mother's death" #MSWL, please

#MSWL YA Historical Mystery! Whether it's fun & funny (think MISS FISHER) gothic, noir, procedural or lawless... get at me!

And for the wild card: hipster noir! #mswl

Would love to see noir detective stories set in almost any other genre but the mystery must be central/taken seriously! #mswl

Basically I'm still looking for all my old #MSWL requests: Victorian era; evil children; remote places; noir; unreliable narrators, etc.

Finishing 1st season of #Riverdale on #Netflix. Would love #YA w/ smart, brooding loner MC like Jughead or campy noir w/ a Cheryl. #MSWL

Huge fan of domestic noir that gets under the skin - I've seen bad mothers by the bucketload but what about fathers and daughters?

Guys, please. Put the noir in my inbox. #mswl

#MSWL: I'd love a noir told from the femme fatale POV, rather than the PI.

I'd love to see more noir w/ a strong sense of place and memorable voice. Hillbilly noir. Noir set in foreign counties & small towns. #MSWL
