Dawn Dowdle, my literary agent, passed away unexpectedly last week. She left an amazing legacy behind and will be greatly missed. I just found out that Blue Ridge Literary Agency is closing, understandably. I’m touched by how helpful everyone is being to each other during this time of unknown. I will be forever grateful to Dawn for seeing something in my writing and believing in A MARKET FOR MURDER. May she Rest in Peace. The search for a new agent to champion my book begins. Stay tuned…
It begins…
My book is officially in someone else’s hands, namely my agency. I submitted my manuscript for agency edits today! It may sound silly, but I’m really looking forward to their revision suggestions. I have read through/revised/edited this book at least 10 times and know there are always ways to make it better. But y’all, I’m so proud of it and I’ve been busy outlining the plot for book 2.

Big News! 8/21/23
I am thrilled to announce that I am represented by Dawn Dowdle at Blue Ridge Literary Agency! I’m beyond excited to partner with her in my publishing journey.
Welcome!
Thanks for stopping by! I’m currently seeking agent representation for my first book,
MURDER AT THE AGENCY.

Writing has been such a journey. I started planning MURDER AT THE AGENCY years ago and finally began drafting it in November of 2022. It took me three months to finish my first draft and though super exciting, I realized the work had only just begun. I revised my manuscript numerous times before sending it to a handful of gracious beta readers to whom I will be forever grateful. The insight and critiques were extremely helpful and I set about revising it again. Afterwards, doing two more read-throughs and making minor changes. I’m so proud of this story! I am currently querying for an agent in the hopes of going the traditional publishing route. Stay tuned!
