Traditional Published author seeks additional readers on YA contemp projects
Hello! My name is

About Me

I creative writing at the university level. I am the author of five poetry chapbooks, the novel “Post-High School Reality Quest” (2017), and the forthcoming poetry collection “Drowning in the Floating World” (2020). I run the Magfest MAGES Library blog, which posts accessible academic articles about video games (https://super.magfest.org/mages-blog). 

I write mostly YA contemp, but also have some speculative projects. Hobbies include woodworking, playing chess, taking care of plants, zumba, playing video games (Fire Emblem Three Houses atm) and doodling.

Love to Read

Compelling characters, strong voice, complex dynamics and new things I haven’t seen before. Good humor, and things that make me think.

Hard No's

Excessive violence/sexual content that isn’t purposeful. Cliches.

About the WIP (Query)

Other Projects

I also have a novel that’s been revised way more times than I want to admit, and I worked with an agent editing for a year. It hasn’t quite found its home yet, so I’d love some feedback to get a sense as to what I might be able to do to improve it.

Have some other YA WIPs so if it works out, I’d love to work with you on more projects!

 

 

Contact this CP
Before you reach out...

Here are some best practices for reaching out to a potential CP:

  • Include the link to your own CP Match profile! You can find it on your Dashboard. Don't have one yet? What are you waiting for? Anyone with a WriteOnCon.org account can make one!
  • Introduce yourself a little, and say what appealed to you about their listing.
  • Respect what's listed here in their profile. They took the time to fill it out, and they've included this information for a reason. Don't send a message about a book they specifically say is a Hard No, for example.
  • Offer to swap a small sample of your works, so you can see if you're really compatible. First chapters are a good starting place.
  • If one party no longer wants to continue the interaction, it's nobody's fault. Sometimes finding the right CP takes time.

Happy writing and CPing!
