taking EBT at a fancy French bakery in Brooklyn is why Black women are the nurturers of this planet. I love this so much.
Janet was certainly generous w the knowledge she shared w/ aspiring authors, but also quick to recommend, compliment and encourage other agents too. Many of us received referrals from her when we were first starting out. She rooted for EVERYONE'S success. She'll be so missed.
Sad news - my beloved agent @Janet_Reid has departed for the great library in the sky. Long before we worked together, her blog & @QueryShark educated me about querying, publishing & writing. She was a generous advice giver who truly listened to writers at all stages.
Ohhh, @Janet_Reid. She was a ferocious cheerleader for me, early in my career, just as she quietly was for so many of us, & I’m grateful for deep talks & book swaps & long lunches of yore. Her Voice & presence will be so missed. The header from her glorious blog sums her up well.
The duke stole my heart too (FUN! FUNNY! HEARTBREAKING! UN-PUT-DOWNABLE! WITH THE MOST CHAOTIC FOUND FAMILY!! and really, a heartfelt love letter to trans kids everywhere who are messy and hurting and trying their best in a very confusing, often hostile world)
i know nyc isn't the first city to ever experience an earthquake but imagine how los angelenos would react if they, one day, suddenly, ate a delicious, fresh bagel in their city

✨life news✨ I’m thrilled to share that I’ve joined the Amulet team at Abrams as an editor, acquiring MG and YA! Agents, let’s chat!!
Just a heads up that if you all haven't heard from your agent it's probably b/c their heads are spinning trying to keep up with the moving and shaking happening across publishing right now. It's a 'blink and risk missing the next and most shocking episode' situation out there.
The longer I work as an agent, the more convinced I become that a critical aspect of the job is the ability to add experiential depth, breadth, context, and nuance to any given publishing situation, without adding drama.
