Hi friends. I know I’ve been quiet on here for a bit, but I wanted to pop in with a little agent insight.

I pass on about 99% of the projects in my inbox.

And surprisingly, it’s usually not because of the writing.

You can donate at KeepMNHoused.com or apply to adopt a rent. Wilson foundation is kicking things off today by granting $250,000 in matching funds to rent funds, so you can also give directly to them and have your donation matched.

Hot Tip for Writers who are querying:
Have someone who is unfamiliar with your story read over your query and synopsis. If they don’t understand what the book is about or how the story unfolds neither will an agent.

Fascist regimes toast as if time belongs to them. Mussolini hung upside down. CeauΘ™escu faced the wall. Hitler took himself out with a bullet. Power swears it is eternal even when the rot begins to surface. The party always ends. It always ends. Do not kneel. This too shall pass.

Be careful, folks. ICE is still out there, circling the schools this morning. Even if this withdrawal is happening over the next week, some of the agents want to get their last bit of being shitheads in.
