Hi writers! I have quite a few queries and fulls to get through, so I'm closing to queries starting now to the end of March. If I haven't responded to you yet, I will do so ASAP! I do have a full-time job in addition to agenting, so I can really only do my reading on breaks and off-hours 🥲

Happy #MSWL Day! Here’s my most recent thread with what I’m looking for (I’d like to add that I do not represent PB or MG) Querying info is at the end — if you think we might be a good fit please feel free to query me! I’m still working through my QM inbox so thanks in advance for your patience.

PEN America proudly stands with the Texas Freedom to Read Project and local, state and national partners and allies in affirming our shared commitment to fighting book bans and censorship in the 89th legislative session, and beyond. www.txftrp.org/joint_coalit...

So many great #P2Ppit pitches today!! If I missed yours but you think we’d be a good fit, please feel free to send me a query: querytracker.net/query/3702 To see what I’m looking for, check out my pinned MSWL 🌟

I'll be dipping in throughout the day to check out #P2Ppit pitches. If I like your post, please feel free to query me here (and mention the pitch event in the form): querytracker.net/query/3702

Thank you to everyone who has queried me so far — I’ve gotten over 70 and counting!! 🤯 I will respond to each query I receive. If you haven’t heard anything back from me yet, please don’t fret. And thank you in advance for your patience!

I feel like there is no real way to honor David Lynch other than to be your truest self, and truly not care if others judge you for your harmless existence. As an artist, I don't want to be like him, but I do want to be more like me.

Hello Writing Community! We are delighted to announce our First Official Bluesky *** #MSWL Day *** February 12, 2025. 🎉🎉🎉 Agents + editors can post what they ✨wish✨ they had in their inboxes; writers can find their next best fit for querying. Learn more here: manuscriptwishlist.com/the-next-off...

Actual pro tip: the best way to break into any creative profession is by helping to support and advance other creators. Your peers are not your adversaries. They are your support group.

Hi #bluepit writers! I'll be popping in throughout the day to check out your pitches. If I like your post, please feel free to query me here (and mention bluepit in the form): querytracker.net/query/3702 Good luck, everyone!

How about an indie horror game where nothing is wrong or spooky but you have to pick up the phone and call someone

We're gearing up for our *Fifth* Annual Submission Strategy Workshop! 🎉 If you have questions about finding the right agents, interpreting your rejections, and getting your query and page into the best shape possible, this is the workshop for you! manuscriptacademy.com/product/thre...

We can't wait to read your debut novels! ✨ Our submission period opens tonight Friday 1/10/25 at midnight PT (technically Sat 1/11/25 @ 12:01 am PT) and stays open until Sunday 1/12/25 @ 11:59 pm PT. See full guidelines, FAQ, and how to submit your work at the link! tinhouse.com/book-submiss...

Since I’m officially an associate agent, I'm excited to announce that I'm open to queries for the first time! Here is my #MSWL thread with my fiction interests & instructions on how to query me :)
