I'm seeking beta readers if you want to talk about swapping. I'm contemporary fantasy (and not so contemporary) from pbs - na

Thank you 🙏🏼

Wonderful, congratulations!

Are you an editorial agent? My book (mg/ya) has been getting great feedback as far as premise and voice, and it seems like a lot of notes could have been easily worked through after signing. I am eager to find an editorial agent to make me work hard!

Love it! See you on the flip side with, "poison matters" (don't you all other authors steal my title but also 🤷)

miawrites.bsky.social @miawrites.bsky.social · Mar 27

Woah!! These stats shock me! I think I queried mine as ya because of word count but it's upper MG, lower ya

Are you open to resubs after revision?

miawrites.bsky.social @miawrites.bsky.social · Feb 26

Thank you so much! I'm so excited about those 2 new imprints!

miawrites.bsky.social @miawrites.bsky.social · Feb 24

Just queried you with something like this, but it's not reflected in the sample pages!

miawrites.bsky.social @miawrites.bsky.social · Feb 22

Hi there, i didn't pitch in manuscript wishlist day but I do think I have a book that might fit your list for minority writers. I'd love to query! If that's all right, please let me know next steps. Thanks!

Hey Alex!

I'd love to query you with my lower ya, but my manuscript is with another s&g agent. It's well past that 8 week mark, but she was an email query. May I query you? Or should I reach out to her for a withdraw first.
Thanks!

Oooo i have a h&g × damsel wip cooking, maybe it's magical timing ✨️ I can't wait to see their book!
