You lovely writers are so prolific that I will probably be closing to queries soon. In the past day, I've gone from getting maybe 10-15 queries a day to maybe 150-200. I try to close once I hit around 800 queries, and I'm at 540 now.

I like 19th and 20th century historical fiction, especially if it's combined with another genre, like mystery, speculative or horror. #MSWL

I guess Query Tracker says I'm currently closed to queries, but that's incorrect. I am open to queries.

I am open to queries. Query Manager is incorrect.

I enjoy books with a psychological bent, whether it's psychological horror, a nonfiction book about psychology, or just a book with really rich characters. #MSWL

I'd love to see more surrealism and fabulism in my inbox. #MSWL

I love all manner of mysteries: literary suspense, noir, historical, psychological thrillers, cozies, etc. #MSWL

I'm more drawn to upmarket and literary fiction than commercial fiction. Really I just want a strong voice and strong characters. #MSWL

I love hilarious writing, whether it's a fresh rom-com or cozy mystery. Bring on the funny! #MSWL

Though I sometimes represent younger children's books for existing clients, I am currently seeking out just YA and adult books. #MSWL

Hi Jason. Query Manager is incorrect. I am open to queries.

I enjoy all manner of horror novels: psychological horror, cosmic horror, folk horror, horror-romance, horror-comedy, ghosts, etc. #MSWL

Though I'm not the right person for full on fantasy or sci-fi, I like books that incorporate speculative elements and are set in the real world. #MSWL

I'm drawn to books about nature, whether it's a creepy YA horror novel set at summer camp or a narrative nonfiction book about the environment. #MSWL

I'd also love to see more hybrid memoirs with great writing and platform. #MSWL

I'd love to see some fresh cozy mysteries with a hilarious voice. #MSWL

I love any kind locked room mystery, especially if it has fresh premise or location. #MSWL

Happy MSWL Day!!! I'm looking for a wide range of fiction and nonfiction. #MSWL manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/an...
