What Am I Writing?

I’m having a blast reading new books from my TBR list for 2021. Meanwhile, I’m sending queries to agents, who I’m hoping will represent me and my work from here on out. The book I’m currently contacting them about is my young-adult alien romance I finished writing last year. 

YA Alien Romance

After receiving edits and feedback from my editor early last year, I needed to write a new Chapter One. After I made all the revisions, I sent my manuscript to a fellow writer for even more feedback. Then over the past few weeks, I’ve been revising that opening chapter, trying to polish it as much as possible. I thought it was polished in November, but then I spotted a few details I wanted to change a couple of days ago. I’m hoping now, along with a new query I worked on over the holidays, my book will catch an agent’s eye.

Some agents receive hundreds of queries a month (or maybe a week?), so for mine to stick out above the noise, it’ll need a little luck. If you could light a candle, pray to the gods, or do anything to help levitate my submission package, my story would be grateful!

MG Contemporary Science Fiction

My middle-grade book is in the hands of an editor. I’m hoping to receive it from her before the end of Feb, and then I’ll tackle revisions. I can’t wait to start querying this story to agents! Being able to query an MG and YA book at the same time should increase my odds of finding an agent. One of the elements I absolutely loved about writing this book was the prose. They give the book a lyrical feeling while also taking the young reader on a fast-paced adventure.
