My somewhat different take on an #agentsguide A Fate tasked with scheduling the lives and deaths of mortals must track down a killer when the unscheduled body of a Chosen One lands on the doorstep of her best friend, Death. #fantasy #fiction #litagents #writingcommunity #amquerying

The title slide of my humorous version of my Agent's Guide to my adult fantasy mystery novel A Wayward Balance.

Slide 2 of my humorous Agents Guide: The dreaded, yet required, One Paragraph pitch

Fiona and Dahlia work tirelessly each day to ensure the balance of eight worlds remains intact. Every rule must be followed, every life and every death scheduled and accounted for, every Chosen One meticulously hand selected to save any world on the verge of collapse from a wayward balance—a breaking—when the scales have tipped too far for too long. When the current Chosen One is found murdered on Dahlia’s doorstep, the two friends must work together to prove Dahlia’s innocence before her life is forfeit to offset the balance that has tipped beyond what anyone has seen before, leaving the futures of all eight worlds in jeopardy. To save the worlds, rules must be broken, time will be upended, secrets will demand to be revealed, and friendships must be sacrificed.

Slide 3 of my humorous Agent's Guide: An Entirely Inconvenient Number of comps

The whimsical bureaucracy of The House in the Cerulean Sea
Unique townsfolk like Halloween Town
Cozy small town vibes like Murder She Wrote
For fans of cozy fantasies & coffee shops like Legends and Lattes, but with the higher stakes of murder.
Metaphysical Fun like: Good Omens and The Good Place
Humor of: The Eyre Affair and Mort

Slide 4 of my humorous Agent's Guide: A socially acceptable boost to my ego

features quotes from people who have read A Wayward Balance such as "When I tell you this story has me HOOKED" and "So fricken fun"

CLARA | A witchy retelling of The Nutcracker. After someone is found dead at the annual Yule Ball, Clara, a young adult witch, must recover the dark gift stolen from her before more harm can be done to their magical kingdom. Clara's favorite Yule song is Carol of the Bells 🔔 #CheerPit #W #YA #M

Mood board for Clara including images of Yule celebrations, winter, a ball, two snowy scenes and a fancy holiday dinner setting. The quote in the middle says "One last look at you," Gwyll's ghost insisted, turning Clara back to the mirror. "She will be watching you tonight, ma'am. She couldn't be prouder."

My ex will ruin us if he finds out, but I think I'm catching feelings despite the fact his BFF still hates me. AITA?

Despite never celebrating a mortal Christmas before (not a thing the Greek gods do), Apollo has found a favorite tradition of his own. Taking Christmas themed cat photos! He says it's his own version of the Yule Cat. A Greek God Got Me Pregnant #CheerPit #A #F #R #FR #Querying

A collage of Christmas themed photos of cats with one square with the following language: When Larkin Sawyer discovers she’s pregnant after a very out-of-character one-night stand with a man who turns out to be the Greek god Apollo, she must face monsters, vengeful gods, and most terrifyingly, her feelings for Apollo to protect herself and her unborn child. And I mean, if you win over her cat... you get the girl. Followed by a smiley face.

From left to right: a candlelit xmas feast, a cottage in the woods, flanked in snow, a pine tree decorated in red garlands and candles, a wooden, rustic kitchen with large windows overlooking a snowy forest, a mistletoe teacup, an elderly couple gazing lovingly at each other, two hands entwined, a wicker basket full of pine needles and fern branches, butter shortbread biscuits and crisp red apples on the kitchen counter
