Authors, Beware! There's a firm called "ClaimsHero" doing aggressive social media outreach claiming to
"help" you file to get $ in the Anthropic class action. In fact, it's a bait-and-switch, they are luring authors to sign up with them, then OPTING THEM OUT of the class action so they'll get zilch.

THE CITY WE BECAME was literally my first thought when I saw this table
Apparently all you needed to do to predict the NYC election results was read that one N.K. Jemisin novel.

I think I want to do an #askagent later this week.
Like #amquerying folks can ask publishing /querying/writing etc questions and I'll answer as best I can. I know I used to see those a lot on twitter but I don't seem too often here.
Would that be something people are interested in? ☺️

DVpit #querying Tip: As you scroll the feed make note of which agents like pitches in similar categories/genres as yours & add them to your general querying list! The feed is so busy, they might've missed yours, but if they're liking similar stories that means it's something they want in their inbox
