Hey, authors and artists! Check on your website today! Is is easily searchable? Do all the buttons & links work? Is it up to date & accurate? Have you made it really easy to purchase/preorder/support your published work, or give editors a good sense of what you want to work on?

Toril Orlesky will be in person doing signings @ NYCC for HOTBLOOD! If you're able to, please go support her!! 🐴✨

A few quick things! Authors, please treat agent interest as an invitation to query, not a requirement. Pitch events are a great way to discover agents who weren't on your radar yet. Another is the @litagentsofchange.bsky.social's Equity Directory: www.equitydirectory.org
