Sleep is important but...I stayed awake dreaming of a compulsively readable thriller about a famous woman's descent into madness, drawing heavily from Perfect Blue and Black Swan. Agents if you have it, send it. #MSWL

High-concept, female-led thrillers. We prefer our protagonists snarky and morally gray. Who doesn’t love a messed up antiheroine?

We’re also looking for writers in the crime & mystery space. Very commercial and propulsive. Could be dark or light and quirky, like KNIVES OUT. 3/4

Grounded speculative fiction and/or contemporary or historical fantasy, esp. if on the darker side. Maybe even incorporating horror or thriller. If you’re comping NINTH HOUSE, we want to read it!

We’re probably NOT a fit for romantasy, epic fantasy, or hard scifi. 2/4

As I open up to queries on November 13 until the end of the month, here are some things I’m looking for:
• psychological thrillers
• romcoms, romantasy, enemies to lovers,
• contemporary MG
• horror (psych, haunted houses)

"I'm on the lookout for mystery thrillers that explore a 'true crime' in their fictional world. Who does it impact, and how? What is justice? Think A GOOD GIRL'S GUIDE TO MURDERING, NOTHING CAN HURT YOU, MY FLAWLESS LIFE, and JACKAL."

Domestic #Thriller novels with protagonists who make dreadful decisions for all the right (or wrong) reasons.

Show me inner vulnerability, and I will root for the worst villain and hope they get away with it.

Yes to crime--murder, larceny, embezzlement--but no rape. 4/?

Like it could be a Dark Fantasy or a Speculative Thriller, or an Ensemble Bottle Episode Mystery, or a Heisty Puzzle Solver, or a gloebtrotting Adventurous Romp or a Warm & Fuzzy Rom-Com... but critically... whatever the vibe is I want THE MOST VIBES WE CAN HANDLE.

YA:
-BIPOC rom-coms with great depth
-books that pull readers in for the hook(s), but make them stay for the relatable, tear-jerking emotional arcs
-sweeping historical and family dramas
-new adult / first year of college stories
-Gossip Girl-esque thrillers

"Send me thrillers like WHAT HAVE YOU DONE by Matthew Farrell."

FICTION: Adult, YA, some Upper MG

1. My main jam is thrillers and sub-genres. Domestic suspense, psychological thrillers, gothic and supernatural thrillers/horror, etc. I love fast-paced thrillers with high tension and high stakes. Ghosts & haunted houses are a huge draw for me.
