Sage advice from one of the greatest authors of our time...

The Goonies movie (#mswl) will always live in my heart. Went to Haystack Rock to see where Mikey lines up the rocks in the doubloon. #RVLife #Oregon #HaystackRock #Goonies

My email inbox is making me want to hide, and my query inbox is exploding with amazing manuscripts! This is not a difficult decision... Thank you amazing writers who are querying me! #querylove #agentlife #writingcommunity
