I am very rarely on here- I am mostly a threads/instagam girlie- but that said, I am sending around my fall newsletter to editors, so if you are an editor and I somehow missed you, send me a chat and I will send it your way so you're up to date on what's coming up my submission pipeline this fall.🍁
a spark of exciting news: i am so stoked to share my next book, AMERICAN GOLEM, with the world! this road trip book will remind you that this country is vast and queer and beautiful and so much more than the people in power want you to believe it can be, and i can’t wait for you to read it.
I’m closed to queries but guys if any agents are looking for something specific? DM me and if I find it in my inbox I will send it to you!
I’m hosting query power hour tomorrow from 4-5EST and I will send it your way expeditiously then!
Me, closed to queries, dreaming about dark and twisty extra witchy, Brothers Grimm, Sleepy Hollow type stories.

It’s been a big week and I’ve cried a lot
I am just now seeing this and I’m obsessed
The solution is for Toni and Shakira to take the prize and besties and Helena and Harrison can cry.
Do yall ever think about how Netflix robbed us of a season two of Julie and the Phantoms or is it JUST me?
RIGHT?!
I saw a Cole and Phoebe edit yesterday, and I am BEGGING, when I reopen to queries if someone could send me a witchy romance like there's where they actually GET their happily ever after I would cry.
I can’t explain it but the crossover I would love is Molly Mae and Allison Kuch.
Like Bambi and Scottie? I’m here for it.
Actually counting down the days til my family leaves for the fourth because I’m going to deep clean my house and be utterly alone.
Thank you ☺️ ❤️
Four years ago this week I set my sites on a career in publishing and now I’m coming up on completing my first two years as a full time agent.❤️

Calamity Gannon was Hyrule’s Sauron.
I don’t know why I dreamed I was chasing one of my editors through the Mirkwood, but like…I also understand it.
Thank you so much!
Men used to carry around purses and call them briefcases.

Comp titles are complicated!
You need two books (or movies) within the last five years that are well-known but not runaway bestsellers.
How do you know you've chosen right?
Agent Sheyla Knigge, High Line Literary, shows us how! youtu.be/bYXF9a5kG7s @sknigge.bsky.social
I appreciate going to conferences and people believing that I’m a teenager.

Favorite indies in DC?👀
Gotta hit up a bookstore while I’m here.
