The only thing better than catching up with your agent over a picnic in the sun ☀️ is opening the email together containing the FINAL COVER of your debut novel!
It's absolutely gorgeous (not that I'm biased), and I can’t wait to hopefully share more soon...

Can I convince you to read my YA romantasy in 20 (ish) seconds? 💖

11 months (minus one day because I forgot to post yesterday) until my little book is out in the world! ✨️
I'm excited, I'm nervous, and I'm honestly still trying to fine-tune my pitch 🫠
At least I've got 11 more months to work on it!
Thank you 🥳
Thank you!!
Thank you so much!! 💓
I'm delighted to share that my YA romantasy A WISH SO DEADLY will be published in March 2026! 🍾
The biggest thanks in the world to my agent Nina Leon, editor Polly Lyall Grant, and wonderful Scholastic UK team for sharing my passion for this magical, swoonworthy story ❤️
Cutest gremlin I've ever seen 🥰
I can't believe this time last year, I was only starting to query the manuscript that quite literally changed my writing career ❤️
I'm listening 👀
The real question is, should I or should I not order 48 stickers, 150 cards, and a tote bag with my book's character art on it 🤔
LOVING the sound of this!!
Congratulations, Dana!! ✨️👏
LOVE the sound of this! ✨️❤️
