Group of six misfit ghost hunters huddled around a laptop. One looks excited. The rest are bewildered. One accidentally spills his coffee. The words, “announcement of literary representation” are above them.
It’s been a long journey getting here. Details on the agency to come at a later time, but I am now officially agented! (I think my ghost hunters are taking the news with the utmost grace.)

Character Introduction: My gaze darts around the room, my body immobile. Artwork plasters the walls, from elaborate portraits and scenery, to hundreds of strange symbols, matching those on the brothel’s entrance. A small woman skids down a ladder, skipping the rungs, with a paintbrush handle in her mouth. She drops her supplies on a wheeled cart and wipes glittery orange dye on her romper, her height and build reminiscent of my sister. My breaths soften at the thought. She says, “Welcome! My name is Rin. I’m your resident tattoo artist.” She snatches a hair tie from her wrist and secures her ebony hair in two lopsided buns.
Excerpt (Continued): A tall, broad-shouldered man enters the room, his tattoos obscured by his dark complexion. He pulls a white handkerchief with green embroidery from the pocket of his sweatshirt, his hands protected by fingerless tactical gloves, and dabs sweat from Rin’s brow. They kiss. “This is my fiancé Nalo,” Rin tells me, her smile exuberant, “our resident healer.” Nalo drags his hands across his shaven head and nods in greeting.

Character Introduction: The flower shop’s glass veranda glints. Orbs of light fall on the neighboring alley, where a man scrapes his switchblade across the library’s exterior, carving something into the bricks. He folds a white jacket over his arm, with the sleeves of his shirt rolled up. Beautiful tattoos stretch from the tips of his fingers to his neck, complementing his dark complexion. My boots scuff the asphalt when I halt. His head turns. A strip of wavy brown hair lines the center of his skull, the sides of his head shaven. He glances at me, then does a double-take. His dark brown eyes widen, lips parted, like he’s seen a ghost, but then he smirks and straightens.
Excerpt (Continued): His voice lilts, accentuating his vowels. “Can I help you?” I laugh. “Nope. Definitely not.” “Friends call me Marius,” he says, his tone melodious. He deposits his switchblade into his breast pocket, drawing my gaze to his wrist, where a familiar hook-like tattoo resides, the same as Slyke. “And your name?” I rest my fingers on the collar of my coat in case I need to rip apart the buttons and snatch my knives. “Doesn’t matter. Whatever you’re selling, I’m not interested.”
