everyone is into fungi now so I need to keep it edgy: when I reopen to queries* please hit me up if you have a slime mold book! Def in fiction but tbh this would be the perfect foray into nf, so that too #mswl

*if you鈥檙e in my pile I can鈥檛 wait to get to you! Slowly catching up.

Ok, I know I just posted a #mswl tweet but what I actually planned to do this week was announce I am closing to #queries on July 1!

I鈥檓 grateful for all the queries I鈥檝e received already - once I make a serious dent in my query/reading pile, I鈥檒l open back up. #amquerying

Down in the queensbound N tunnel of the 57th st/7th ave subway, there is a massive growth of moss clinging to the rusty, grimy walls by a service light.

That tension between lush/decrepit, organic/inorganic, growth/decay, creepy vibes/growth against the odds - #mswl pls!!

One caveat: I鈥檓 balancing two roles and during book fair season, my workload will shift towards foreign rights (and existing clients). I may be slower, especially on fulls, in these months. But growing my list is a long-term process and a priority for me, so I鈥檓 opening up now 馃摎

As some #amquerying authors have already noticed - I am open for queries!

I accept queries on Query Manager (not here). You can find info about my list and mswl on my website and the kt site.

I look forward to reading your work and to signing new clients this year!
