Hi, all! While I had hoped to be open to queries much more this summer, I've been battling some health challenges the last two months. That said, if I'm holding onto your query, partial, or full, I am still considering your work and I apologize deeply for the delay 🫶

I will never use AI to analyze your query. I will never put your book through AI. I will never use AI during the editing process. #amquerying #writingcommunity

I would love to separate myself from the “apparently agents are using AI to XYZ” discourse I’ve been seeing all day long. Not all agents do that and I hate being lumped into that statement. Rest assured that I will not, have not, and never will use AI for any part of this job.

✨I'M OPEN TO QUERIES✨ #MSWL 🧵 I’m seeking high-concept, voice-driven adult fiction with strong emotional stakes, a clear hook, and broad commercial appeal. I’m drawn to diverse and underrepresented voices, as well as stories that feel fresh, strange, or genre-bending (1/8)

Just to reassure all querying authors: I will never use AI to evaluate a query or edit a manuscript. Just my own brain! Your manuscript is safe with me.

Popping in to say I’m seriously impressed by the quality of queries I’ve received since opening. You’re making this both exciting and incredibly hard. Kudos!

Most new writers query too early. The manuscript isn't rigorously edited. They don't fully understand their genre. They haven't nailed their pitch. And they burn through their entire agent list wondering why no one is biting. Before you make the same mistake, ask yourself honestly...is your manuscript REALLY ready to query? With a decade of editing and hundreds of manuscripts under my belt, I've compiled a list of the 7 signs your manuscript isn't ready to publish yet. This isn't meant to discourage you, but to empower you to put the absolute BEST version of your book in front of agents. It's tough out there, and I want you to give it your best shot! piped.video/79Y1hHVOi9I

Audio has quickly become a huge passion spot within the industry (167% increase in audio readers in the US in the past decade!!!) and I can't wait to bring the endless hours of knowledge and resources I have obtained to my agency colleagues!
