Announcement! I have a literary agent!

I’m thrilled to announce I signed with Bethany Weaver at Weaver Literary to represent my books! This news is five years and six books in the making and I couldn’t be more excited to start this next chapter in my author journey.

If you don’t know what a literary agent is or why it’s important for authors to get one, here is a great intro article. One common mis-perception is that an author can just hire an agent when they are ready to submit their books to publishers. Friends, it is much more complicated than that. Literary agents have to wade through the slush piles to find their clients and believe me when I say they have HUNDREDS of books waiting for them in their slush. They select which books and authors they want to represent from the best of the best so sometimes it takes a little while to make that list. But I am now on the list!

I knew Bethany was the right agent for me when she requested not just one, but two of my manuscripts and totally understood what I was trying to do with my stories. Her enthusiasm for Norse myth and darker romantic fantasy is a huge asset for my current portfolio and I know she is going to be a stellar creative business partner for my author career.
