Currently Looking For
I am only seeking adult fiction at this time. I am also not the best fit for a fantasy novel with a teenage protagonist, or any novel with a child narrator. I’ve been a reader of fanfiction for a long time, so I’m very open to hearing from authors who are looking to make the jump from AO3 to the NYT, whether it’s filing the serial numbers or working on original projects. Mysteries & Thrillers Romance Fantasy Scifi Literary & Upmarket Other Fun facts about me: My dog is named after the detective(s) in Midsomer Murders I studied Mandarin Chinese for four years and spent six months in Beijing. I also speak semi-terrible French. I’m originally from Houston, Texas, and am allergic to horses I am learning how to play ice hockey (badly)
