YOUNG ADULT:
- BIPOC rom-coms, friend-coms, and coming-of-age stories not exclusively centered around POC trauma
- Sweeping historical fiction / magical realism, especially stories about non-white history
- Speculative thrillers ala The Thousandth Floor & We Were Liars

I want a psychological thriller set in the landscape that is grief #MSWL
If you've written this, send it my way!😍

"Thrillers like WHAT HAVE YOU DONE by Matthew Farrell." @CurtisPSLA #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

...No law enforcement themes. Think: THE BALLERINAS, by Rachel Kapelke-Dale; MALIBU RISING, by Taylor Jenkins Reid.

...for kids are upsetting as all get out. Almost exclusively established authors and IP. I’m sorry, but I hate it.

- Other diverse experiences, such as neurodiversity, mental illness, physical disabilities, chronic illness, or non-nuclear/“found” families
- Compulsively page-turning YA thriller with deep emotional engagement
- Immersive YA high fantasy that’s dark, twisty, and queer AF (4/6)

"Dark, twisted, borderline disturbing… words I’d use to describe my interest in thrillers. Not looking for gore at the moment, but definitely into psychological elements. Especially fictionalized accounts of actual crimes." @claire_m_harris #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

What am I looking for right this second? Inspirational romantic suspense or thriller for Love Inspired Trade. 85-100k words. Agented submissions.

#MSWL

@GlamEditor_Girl Latoya would love to see high-concept commercial and upmarket fiction, particularly women's fiction and thriller. I am also open to nonfiction proposals but an established platform is a must! #MSWL #literaryagent #amquerying #WritingCommunity #writers

Dear #amwriting, please, please consider including this in your contemporary #romance #mystery #thriller or..? #MSWL

Only #YA and #MG. Whodunit mysteries like Truly Devious (riddles!). Closed door thrillers/mysteries. Witchy stories like Undead Girl Gang and The Craft, grounded in the real world. #mswl

Always looking for BIPOC writers!

If you have it and I miss it, please send anyway!

#mswl This #PitMad we'll be looking for romances (of all kind, but particularly romcoms, beach reads, holiday, and paranormal), thrillers, horror, and memoirs.

I usually prefer contemporary or near-historical realism, but will sometimes consider speculative fiction, fantasy, psych thrillers, lite dystopian, literary horror, and paranormal (especially dealing with ghosts). #MSWL

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

#MSWL #A #Mystery #Thriller #Suspense: I'm a huge fan of the following authors: Mary Kubica, Ruth Ware, B.A. Paris, Heather Gudenkauf, Charlaine Harris, Victoria Laurie and Juliet Blackwell (to name a few). I'd really love a #YA Mystery. Also love #ghost-y and #paranormal aspects

#MSWL
(Adult fiction)
Women's fiction - psychological thrillers (the darker the better) & mystery/suspense. Think Lifetime movies!

(YA)
Paranormal romance & thrillers/suspense. School settings are a plus. Dark elements are welcomed!

Calling all thriller authors! I just finished SOMEBODY I USED TO KNOW by David Bell. HOLY CRAP! Did it keep me guessing! So many twists! If you write like David Bell, let's talk!!! #thrillers #WritingCommunity #MSWL
