Did I overthink this so much I Googled “how to accept a literary agent’s offer of representation?” Yes, yes I did. BUT there was a Reddit thread for that, so I’m not the only one to have overthought it 😅

I pretended to be confident. Even fooled myself. But I was SHOCKED when I got the email to set up a call. Not saying I thought I’d fail. Just didn’t expect things to be so fast or so amazing 🙃

My second time in the trenches was pretty quick but including when I queried too early… they call them the trenches for a reason 🫣

To celebrate moving into final edits before going on submission - a snippet from BRIGHTER THAN TWO MOONS! #writesky #agented #onsubmission #WIPSnips
A nine block mood board showing, in order: blood stained converse shoes, bisexual pride pins, a woman wearing a “sounds gay I’m in” t shirt, a creepy Manor House, a newspaper clipping of the word murder, jigsaw pieces, a woman bending down to give a black cat a stroke, a blood stained key, and close up of several people shoes all standing in a circle
AND THEN THERE WERE NONE x queer SCOOBY DOO
When five friends find themselves locked in a mysterious manor with the body of an eccentric puzzle master, they must play their way through the manor’s riddles and puzzles to escape with their lives.
#W #M #LGBT #agented #BluePit 📖
A nine-block moodboard with overall dark, gritty vibes. I wanted her to kiss me on a white background, a girl sitting and staring out an open window at night, a tape player with modern day headphones attached, a hand reaching out of a dark ocean, "this isn't fucking over" against a fiery background, a lighthouse in the middle of a dark ocean, waves at night, a ghost standing in the forest, "I thought we'd have more time" in red font against a white background
LIFE IS STRANGE x sapphic CEMETERY BOYS
When Addie discovers the ghost of Erin, a murdered girl tethered to a local lighthouse, the two must solve a decades old mystery before time runs out and Erin disappears… forever.

On a background of dark blue water and a pinky purple octopus tentacle Sculptor of the Waves Ivy T. Woods Queer Romantic Fantasy WIP
On a background of dark blue water and a pinky purple octopus tentacles Pitch When Minna is offered a place weaving the winds and waves on one of the largest ships in the Fleet, it comes with a catch—her betrothal to the Deckmistress’ son. Willing to do anything to achieve greatness, she takes the deal, surprised to find that her betrothed is actually quite tolerable. But when they capture a monstrous pirate, Minna is forced into the role of jailer and becomes entranced, putting Minna at odds with her Deckmistress, her betrothed, and the entire crew as she fights to save the monster from both execution and the shackles of the god that enslaves her. But the god is coming to reclaim Its slave and will destroy everything in Its path to get her. On the right is a tall ship illuminated by a sunset in a white circle
On a background of dark blue water and a pinky purple octopus tentacles Comps & Tropes The poster for pirates of the Caribbean, curse of the black pearl and the cover for bury our bones in the midnight soil Bisexual love triangle Actually has to choose Arranged marriage / forced proximity Enemies to lovers Yearning She’s a monster and I don’t care
On a background of dark blue water and a pinky purple octopus tentacles First lines Minna clutched the handrail as the ship smacked into the water, riding a violent dip between waves. Her bare foot slipped on the step and she fell, barking her shin against the steep steps of the ladder. She made a mental note to smack Kadir later—he needed a gentler touch. The seas were to be guided, not forced. She hauled herself off the wooden planks and touched a finger to the sun-darkened skin of her leg. No blood at least. She strode down the aisle between the oars to her father’s cabin at the stern and pushed the door open, not bothering to knock. If the Deckmaster needed her so urgently, he could deal with her barging in.
Pirates of the Caribbean but if Elizabeth was a bisexual mage, Will and Jack were combined into a lesbian monster/pirate, and James Norrington was an age-appropriate hottie that didn’t suck. Then add more angst and a cult
#WIPPIT #A #F #R #FR #Agented
Having a ball writing my new one, a supernatural thriller:
A university professor haunted by a ghost; a beautiful and mysterious medium; midnight séances; and for good measure, an unhinged British royal on a transatlantic ship where it all comes to a head.

Editor’s Guide To: The Things We Run For YA Drama Mystery Projected 90k Words Work in Progress
4/13/1994 Run. What a powerful instinct. Emma Bridge had wanted nothing more than to be with her two siblings in a home that felt safe, but those wishes never came true. With nothing left to lose, Emma runs away from the spotlight of the Hills to a small town across the country, but this new home is anything but the safety she’d been after. The weight of the world has fallen on her shoulders, and she can’t carry it alone. But with her old name in every police station and her new name on every tongue in town, she’s not sure who she can trust to help carry the burden.
What we know: -Runaway in Hiding -Fake Identity (turned real identity) -Mental Health Rep -LGBTQIA+ Rep -Found Family -90s Small-Town Nostalgia “We’re in this together now”
6/23/1994 “The Hills have Eyes” There’s a collage of pictures. Picture one is of two people, one sitting on the counter with the other in front of them. Picture two is go a small-town street with buildings to either side. Picture three shows a row of high school desks. Picture four shows a box of police evidence. Picture five shows a group of kids sitting behind an abandoned building. Picture six shows someone flipping off a police car. Picture seven shows a paper with the words “Child Custody Hearing” printed on it. The last picture shows the back of someone’s head, their hood is pulled up and they’re wearing a backpack.
#Editors THE THINGS WE RUN FOR ( #OnSub 2026!)
Emma Bridge ran to find a safe home, but the town she picked is anything but. When she gets wrapped up in a cold case that threatens her siblings, who can she turn to while keeping her secrets safe?

How did I choose the title? Subheadings: New Adult Science Fantasy w/ Romance. Represented by FinePrint Literary Management.
The title of this book holds two meanings.
On the surface, THE CROOKED JACKAL is the name of a brothel, which serves as headquarters for a mafia subgroup.
On a deeper level, THE CROOKED JACKAL takes on new meaning toward the end of the book, the details of which I won’t spoil.
If you’re curious how I came up with the title, THE CROOKED JACKAL, for my newest MS, then look no further. Excerpts included! 👀✨
