Just sent my full manuscript to an agent for the first time. She was also the first agent I queried. I could not be more proud of myself right now. Even if I dont get an offer, I still accomplished something I never thought I could do. I did it. #writingcommunity #amquerying #booksky #darkromance

ME: I’ll take care of it. Don’t worry, everything’s gonna be fine.
MY QUEEN: Yeah, so in case you forgot…I’M THE LEAD HOMICIDE PROSECUTOR
ME: Well, that’s gonna make things awkward at the dinner table.

❌Toxic MMC
❌MCs under 30

With:
✅Spice with full consent
✅She will burn the world for him
✅Strong FMC
✅Protective MMC
✅Lots of humor
✅Pet with personality
