I'll be closing to queries on March 5th. That means I'll take queries through 11:59pm on March 4th. Thanks everyone!

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

26.02.2026 16:40 β€” πŸ‘ 24    πŸ” 3    πŸ’¬ 3    πŸ“Œ 0

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
