Made an #agentsguide for THE STRAY SCALES with the aim of #querying in October!

A fractured take on 'The Little Mermaid' where Pearl must kiss a prince to avoid the fate of sea foam, and elude a hunter's suspicions if she ever wants to explore the lands!

#YA #F #litagents #editors #amquerying soon
An Agent's Guide to THE STRAY SCALES. YA Fatansy 87,000 words In front of an image of a mermaid with long blonde hair, red eyes and a purple tail. They are wearing a purple top and holding a green satchel. Comparison Titles Shrek Movie Poster- If it was set in a world similar to Shrek! The Princess Bride Movie Poster- A spoof of fairy tale tropes like this! A cover of 'A Forgery of Fate' - A risk taking main character similar to Tru! A cover of 'Little Thieves' - With humour similar to this! The Pitch The only thing sea folk Pearl wants is to explore the Lands Above. With no legs, however, she can only settle with stalking a prince instead. When she strikes a bargain with a sketchy-looking woman to become human, she gives up her voice and wagers her life. There is a purple tail next to the text. Luckily for her, all she has to do is kiss the prince to avoid the fate of sea foam. Unluckily for her, the prince's cousin happens to be a sea folk hunter. And he doesn't intend to leave the den she's trapped in anytime soon. First Lines It wasn’t unusual for Pearl to wander into strangers’ homes. In the hunt for the mysteries of the world, she was unbound by its unwritten rules. Small or large, nothing was safe when she locked sight with it. Themes and Tropes self discovery odd friendship fish out of water fractured fairy tale predator x prey a fantastical take on the immigrant experience love and loss perceptions Next to this text is a character with blonde hair and a purple dress, holding her face while looking off to the side with a small smile

I plan to include both my pen name and real name in the query letter regardless. I'm specifically asking about the etiquette of the fill in options for first and last names on a query manager form.

Hello #writers. This is probably an obvious answer, but in regards to #querying agents through querymanager, do I fill the first and last name with my pen name or real name lol? Does it even matter?

SHREK x THE PRINCESS BRIDE

When a mermaid's trip to the surface turns into an accidental prison with a predator, Pearl must kiss the prince to avoid turning into sea foam and endure the wrath of his sea folk hunting cousin who forces her to learn how to read and write.

Sketchy woman who can turn my mermaid tail into legs? Check!

Share my first kiss with a prince to not turn into sea foam? Sacrifices have to be made, I guess.

The prince has a cousin who's a sea folk hunter? Wait, what?

The hunter will torture you with books? Stab me, please.
