Thank you so much! :D ❤️

If Loki had to steal the heart of Howl’s Moving Castle to get his powers back—but make it a cozy Asian-inspired romantic fantasy where a nine-tailed fox trickster goddess must infiltrate the traveling palace of an exiled inventor and steal his heart to restore her stolen laughter.

Thank you so much! :D

Thank you!! She'd want to be friends as soon as she solves the wanting-to-eat-your-heart problem 😅

Shen Su would be the happiest bard in the three realms—if she weren’t a shapeshifting fox demon. Her dazzling performances end in crushing guilt when she must kill and devour hearts to maintain her human form. Seeking to become human, she joins the deadly race up a wish-granting mountain.

Besides writing, I also love drawing. So here's the illustration I made of Su, a devious sunshine fox demon bard, and Kai, a softhearted grump demon hunter.

Some FAQs that have come up in 2025 for the new #DVpit on Bluesky!
We Discourage the use of Agent Guides, Pitches or Excerpts as attached graphics to pitches.
It bogs down the feed & doesn't allow agents to get through as many pitches. We'd like to allow everyone a fair shot at making an impression

Thank you! :D

THE HUNGER GAMES meets DAUGHTER OF THE MOON GODDESS where a fox demon bard seeking to become human joins the deadly race up a wish-granting mountain—but falling for a demon hunter may cost her everything.

Are you readying your manuscript to query agents? Preparing for this year’s RevPit event?

What better way to know if your query and first 5 pages have what it takes to stand out in the slush pile than to get an editor’s eye on it?

We are hosting a #10Queries event, October 10th - October 24th!

A dark background with a drag queen present. The text reads EDITOR'S GUIDE. EAST END BOYS AND WEST END GIRLS. JAMES A LYONS. 82,000 WORDS. ADULT CONTEMPORARY LGBTQ+ ROMCOM. REP: INTERSAGA LITERARY AGENCY

A dark background with a drag queen present. The text reads: PITCH. On a road trip to reconnect four iconic members of his estranged late uncle’s drag troupe, a young gay man uncovers the dark truth about his adoptive mother. When a romance with his co-driver blossoms, further family secrets emerge that could threaten his future, leaving him to choose — his uncle’s legacy or the woman who raised him.

A dark background with a drag queen present. Down the left are the covers for the books Here We Go Again and Boy Queen, and the TV series It's a Sin. The text reads: road trip, forced proximity, found family, LGBTQ+ history, drag humour, secrets.

A dark background with a drag queen along with the snippet: “Richard will be happy. He always worries no one will come to his drag events, but every time they’re packed out.” “What time does he get here?” I ask. She does a weird backward nod towards a doorway next to the printer. “Richard, you’ve got your first quizzers already.” Her eyes reconnect with mine. “He probably isn’t in the office. He’s having terrible trouble with his back passage today. Council haven’t collected the bins again so it’s filthy.” She’s wrong. From the doorway, a queen strides into view. His tall wig reaches high. One arm is stretched against the frame, the other on his hip. The dress is mermaid green with dashes of gold like individual lightning bolts. In his mouth, a long cigarette holder sits empty. His dark eyeshadow makes his ocean blue eyes pop from their sockets. Everything in my peripheral vision is sucked away. The queen strides elegantly across the reception in ruby red, knee length platforms, before sitting side-saddle on the desk. He clicks his tongue twice as he looks us up and down. “Hi boys.” His voice is sugary sweet, but as rich as cocoa. “Princess Thigh-Ana, absolute delight for you to meet me.” “Hey,” says Jack. He beams, nudging me in the ribs with a bony elbow. “Hi, hey.” I can only stutter, my left leg shaking. This is real. The Dragnificent Seven are real and one-quarter of the remaining members are stood in front of me. I want to scream, cry, shout, laugh and do a stupid little dance all at the same time. I need to say so much yet I can’t say anything at all.

An #editors guide to:

EAST END BOYS AND WEST END GIRLS.
My adult contemporary road-trip RomCom featuring drag queen debauchery, melancholic yearning, and dark familial secrets in all four corners.

HERE WE GO AGAIN x IT'S A SIN

#Editors #OnSub

Mark your calendars! We have a US cover reveal date for LOVE GALAXY, my debut sapphic SF romantic thriller about murder on a reality tv show in space with forbidden romance and lots of yearning!
