Kim - OPEN to queries! @kim_lindman
I talk mostly about fiction on here, but you all should know I also rep nonfiction and want more of it! a few general topics I’m into: food, beer, wine, spirits, coffee, tea, environment, farming, how to be a better person, investigative journalism...last day to send fiction queries for a while! I'm looking for more nonfiction at the moment--you can find what I'm looking for in that area via my #MSWL tweets or my bio (stonesong.com/kim-lindman)
