I picked TF+S up last night and couldn't put it down. One chapter in and I'm obsessed.

Thanks, Elliot! The biggest game-changer for me was getting out of the inbox and into the room. I met my agent at an in-person conference, and pitching face-to-face made all the difference. We clicked right away. It’s much easier to spot a kindred spirit in person than than through a query letter.

Exactly! Those early alchemists laid the groundwork for so much of what we now call science. In a way, FRAGMENTS is a poetic nod to that long, magical chain of discovery.
