Thank you! Champagne rejections (or chocolate, depending on your tastebuds!) let #writers know they're on the "write" path. The goal is in sight! #kidlit is a marathon not a sprint.

It's been a fantastic #BluePit so far! There's little over an hour left to get a pitch out there!

For any #LitAgents following, we keep our Querying feed open for up to 7 days after the event!

After that, you'll have to use the hashtag!

Arzhang is slightly taller than Myra, muscular, tanned, wearing maroon dhoti pants and sandals and gold fringe across his eyes, with long blond hair.

Text: Agents Guide The Sun Diamond Princess & the Blind Assassin by Elise Betz 106K adult stand alone romantasy, light fantasy, dual POV, bi-racial princess, disabled blind romantic interest, plenty of pining, angst, and spice. First sentence, first page: “If beauty was a currency for women to procure a husband, Princess Myra was a pauper.” Upper half of "sun diamond pendant" in the background, a rough yellow crystal in a wire pendant settingg. Text: The Pitch A blind former assassin saves facially scarred Princess Myra from an assassin sent by her mother, the queen regent. On the run together, Myra brokers peace by offering herself up for marriage to end a war started by a false flag orchestrated by her mother. With her fiancé army, Myra intends to return home and depose her tyrannical mother. The princess is torn between her love for her country and her love for the blind assassin. If she doesn’t go through with the wedding, she risks reigniting the war. Lower half of character art featuring Myra and Arzhang, showing their legs.

Beta Feedback from First Four Chapters “Very strong opening, really captures me as a reader and makes me want to read more to see what's going to happen next and how we ended up here.” “Love that she's not a typical Disney princess and has some fire to her personality.” “I really like this entire section. I feel that several women can relate to this desire and makes the FMC more relatable.” “This part made me laugh. I love Myra's snarkiness. LOL!” “I love the vulnerability of the FMC and the masculine certainty and desire of the MMC in this scene.” “This is so hot!! The masculinity and gentleness of the MMC. swoon” “The pacing is good and makes it easier to continue reading without wanting to stop. I like the build up of the issues, and then problem solving aspect of this section.” “As the reader, I can really feel the emotion from the FMC. The sense of disgust and jealousy.” “I love the portrayal of her embarrassment but most importantly her strength!! And standing up for herself versus just shying away.” “This part is so funny!! I love the banter between these two characters.” “This is great work. I have the genuine desire to keep reading and see where this story goes.”

Query update! ✨

I’m officially closed to queries. I’m still working through April-June & have a lot to get through. If you send me a query after 6/30 it will be deleted. You can try me again when I reopen. I’m not sure when that will be but it is usually at the start of a new season.

I’ve been looking for a #horror novel that felt like an A24 film and @lolagracebooks.bsky.social nailed it. Every scene felt like a slow moving camera moment and I could not stop thinking about this book. I can’t wait to get this one out into the world! ✨

Had the loveliest time with @scbwiatx.bsky.social for a workshop on comp titles!

We dove into how I use comps when I’m pitching as an agent and why they’re important. You’d be surprised what you use in your query ends up on the back of your book! 📖

Meet Radhika Katti! ✨

I was immediately sold at THE BEAR meets THE PAIRING by Casey McQuinston and devoured their queer chef romance. With delectable descriptions, Radhika does not skip on the spicy spice! 🥵
