We’re officially a month out from 2026’s summer #questpit!! Here’s a refresh on some rules! We hope to see you there :)

Hacks rewatch is hitting harder now that I #amquerying . I frequently hear from tradpub writers I admire that luck matters just as much as all the work.

When should you stop querying a book? agentsandbooks.com/when-should-you-stop-querying-a-book/

**I will be opening to queries on Monday, June 1 until I reach 100 queries** During this time, I will ONLY be accepting queries for queer romance with magical elements. Think Sangu Mandanna, Sara Raasch - romance + grounded/very low fantasy. Let magic enhance love, and make me swoon. #amquerying

Any #amquerying writers wanna join me in a Noah Kahan pitch party? Reply below w/ the 3 Noah tracks that embody your book #Litagents & editors are welcome to look & like! If this never becomes anything more than a gathering of depressed writers then…that’s right on theme😆 (1/2) #writingcommunity
