I’m open for queries until the 15th and my #MSWL has changed.
I also included some recent reads that I’ve enjoyed this summer so you can get a feel for my reading tastes (I do not represent these titles).
note— I am NOT open to manuscripts written using AI.

I sent additional subs out for two authors today. Sent two new PBs on sub, and finished reading my favorite dinosaur fantasy manuscript. I cannot wait to slide this 🦕 to editors mid June.
I also got to announce a book deal for an author and my agent heart is so very full.
