not closing to queries, but my replies will be delayed for a little while as I focus on client work and finishing the fulls I’ve already requested. I’m caught up to about halfway through June on query replies - if you queried back in May and haven’t heard, it’s in my maybe pile!

The good news continues! So happy to announce that I’ve signed Caitlin Clements! Caitlin got my attention after querying in response to my X post asking for a tearjerker romance and WOW did she deliver! I can’t wait to bring this swoony YA project to life with her.

I am over the moon to announce the signing of my first author, K.C. Siu! K.C. hooked me from the opening paragraph of her dynamic, high-stakes, Chinese-inspired YA dystopia and I’m so excited to see where we’ll take this project together!

I have to be so honest, Sunrise on the Reaping fell apart for me in Part 3, but overall I’m so happy there’s another Hunger Games book :’)

friends, when people write “FR” on querytracker, does that mean “full request” or “form rejection” ?
March 10, 2025 at 1:05 PM
