BOOKISH NEWS: I GOT OFFERED REPRESENTATION – again!

A couple weeks ago, I shared the good news about being offered lit agent representation for my jinn necromancer novel.

A second agent reached out to me to offer representation!

This may seem like a dream, and for about one second, it was. But it’s rather stressful choosing between two amazing agents, who are both so driven and intelligent. It comes down to small (big) things and what I end up wanting in an agent. And even then, I have no guarantee I’ve made the right decision. It feels like, in gaining one kilo of gold, I’m losing another kilo of gold.

Ultimately, it comes down to who will push your career farther, in less time. Or so I’ve determined.

Bookish news: I got offered representation!

The novel I’ve been working on the last 3 years, about a necromantic jinn and her daughter, has been offered representation!

I started querying in June/July, and sent my queries to 80+ agents, with 5-6 requests for partials and fulls. But yesterday, glorious yesterday, an agent Zoomed me to offer representation!

Nothing’s official yet, but this is the best news I’ve had all year!

She did offer revisions, but she said my manuscript is clean enough that it won’t need that much work before she can sub it to publishers.

One step closer to becoming a published author!
