Heeeey, just a heads up that someone queried a colleague with their manuscript bc chatgpt told them they were a good agent for fantasy, and BUDDIES. The plagiarism bots are wrong. Cursory internet search will tell you that these things are wrong. Use your wonderful brains, please. <3 #amquerying

Feels like every few months we lose another outlet covering books. It hurts authors, readers, publishers, journalists, everyone. And as social media gets worse and worse to do any kind of promo on, I wonder what the industry plan is. Ah, existential dread. Great.

This is live, friends! You can also bid on a critique from me in here.
