One of the things I'm gaining from doing the applications is adding to my TBR. I love the visual MSWL mentors post on their pages. I'm checking the pages of the mentors I'm not eligible for, too, just to see what they're reading and loving. @PBRisingStars

Authors: This is NOT a real agent but a scammer. You can find a Writer’s Beware Facebook thread from Jan as well as the name doesn’t exist on the agency site.
Always research agents that approach you on socials to make sure they exist and it’s a valid account. #WritingCommunity

This year, I want to build a robust PB client list. I love it, though it is very competitive and the editor lists are narrowing. But, query me. Particularly author-illustrators. #AmQuerying #AmAgenting #WritingCommunity

Oh, be careful, Merriam-Webster, lest we suffer vertigo from the dizzying heights of our lexical ground.
