Happy bookday to Julie Kagawa’s DEATHLESS! 🎉

The Dem establishment would rather punch left than punch right. Smh.

Agents usually don’t speak publicly about the rejections our clients’ projects receive on sub, but it’s so frustrating to receive feedback on authors writing marginalized characters’ based on lived experiences as POC, and hearing those experiences called implausible. Implausible to whom?

Welp, the scammers are pretending to be me now, too. 😔 Two people just reached out to ask whether an email using my name and logo from an official sounding Gmail address was actually me. Friends, I will only ever use my official Fuse Literary email, so please be careful!

I have three clients with books releasing on the same day in November! We’ve had two of their cover reveals in the past week, and the third is coming next week. Be on the lookout for another 🔥🔥🔥 cover!

Tina was the first client I ever signed. I begged to represent her because I was obsessed with THE CELESTIAL SEAS. From the characters to the unique world, this book needed to be published. With lots of patience & trusting the process, THE CELESTIAL SEAS released with Viking this year! 🐋

This is a weird time to have good news, but... I have good news! This story has been seven years in the making, and it's finally going to make its way out into the world as a real live children's picture book! It should hit the shelves in Spring 2026, and be available everywhere books are sold :)

We started this team/journey over 5 years ago. How wonderful to see Octavio out in the world 🐙 bookshop.org/p/books/octa...

I’m so thrilled to help boost this incredible cover reveal for my client @alliewritesalot.bsky.social’s BLOOD OF SILVER! Coming Nov. 10 in the US and UK from Simon Teen! Preorder it now!

There are so many highs and lows in agenting. Some days you get news that makes you so happy. Other times things happen that make you so incredibly sad. I’m hoping for some good news this week, because I take the sad things super hard.

Oh heyyyy she’s shining bright like a super massive blue giant! 💫 Delighted with this lovely review from the School Library Journal!! 💖🐳 #thecelestialseas #scifibook #bookreview

I’ll be here. 👀

My inbox is now back at zero. I’d love to see some amazing queries that fit what I’m looking for!

This is a @kmlwrites.bsky.social appreciation post. Kristen is one of my absolute best friends in the world, and her award-winning Roxane Weary mystery series is nothing short of outstanding. If you haven’t read them yet, you need to fix that right away. www.kristenlepionka.com/books

The kids are alright.

AI could never.

On a more positive note, I do think most agents and editors feel this way too. There are a lot of truly wonderful people in this industry. Don’t let any of this nonsense keep you from following your path! You got this! Now go write your synopsis.

Hey y’all. As an agent, I do not use AI at any point in my process with clients or querying authors, nor would I ever feed someone’s work into AI for any reason whatsoever. And if I learned of an editor doing this, I would not submit to that editor.
