Excited to be working with Scott on his language-based magical YA. And going from pitch to offer on LitConnect was a fun process!

Thrilled to share that I’ve signed with Ismita Hussain at @greatdoglit.bsky.social for my YA literary fantasy novel THE SECRET SOCIETY OF DEAD LANGUAGES — about a teenager who discovers that spoken Latin can alter reality. Huge thanks to @agentismita.bsky.social and @litconnect.bsky.social!

It's a long road for writers from manuscript to published book, and that's true for agents too! So it's been extra special recently to get a bunch of agent copies for my authors. Proud of all of their hard work, and making space on my bookshelves for many more 💚

What a bold and truthful piece of writing by Jessica Guerrieiri, who's represented by my colleague @agentismita.bsky.social. "I don’t think fiction is a lesser truth. I think it’s the bravest one. We tell stories not to escape life—but to survive it." bookshop.org/p/books/betw...
