This is one of those books that reminds you of the thrilling feeling of finding a work you love--and a writer kind enough to go on the journey with you. Honored to work with you, Amy.

Happy to announce … I’ve tunneled my way out of the query trenches and am now represented by the amazing @Jsinsheim at @ContextLiterary! (Pretty sure this is actually happening outside of my head.) Can't wait to launch to Mars with my upmarket sci-fi debut. 🚀

Great workshop last night on queries with Allison Lane, @juliekingsley, and @jsinsheim! I love Manuscript Academy! It's not only the happiest place in publishing, it's filled with knowledgeable, insightful mentors. Thank you, @MSWLMA!

We're celebrating:
🎉 Great reviews
🎉 @jsinsheim opening to queries!

[Context Literary Agency @contextliterary]

Happy #bookbirthday @MargotFHarrison! 🎉

THE MIDNIGHT CLUB explores that innate desire to revisit our first loves, our biggest mistakes, and the gulf between who we are and who we hoped we’d be. 🕰

@jsinsheim

[Context Literary Agency @contextliterary]

We love all the buzz THE MIDNIGHT CLUB by @MargotFHarrison is getting! 🎉

@audible_com included it as one of its top listens for fall 🎧and @bustle's round up said: “It’s eerie and suspenseful, but fundamentally a poignant look at grief, regret, and friendship.” 😱

A little fight over the best way to pitch over at The Manuscript Academy with @jsinsheim, @juliekingsley, and John Cusick! https://t.co/AqZAmIghEt

@GSBrouwer We didn't have majors! But I've always been really interested in science, even if I think it's (usually, or perhaps just for my brain type) often taught in the worst possible way. ("Memorize this thing! No you cannot see a real world example. You'll learn the why next year...")

[Jessica Sinsheimer @jsinsheim]

It's such a cool thing! I imagine we have this feature so we remember practical things (smelled that before, ate it, got sick, maybe won't try again) but it's such a lovely way to recall things. I maintain a small library of the perfumes I wore at different life times so I can remember.

[Jessica Sinsheimer @jsinsheim]

I was reading a manuscript last night that featured a very vivid scent of roses. 🌹

Now, out in the world, there’s a rose scent in the air—and I thought immediately of her work.

They talk about scent as memory—do we think it could work this way too?

[Jessica Sinsheimer @jsinsheim]

Thrilled to talk with client Ted Fox on his Working Drafts podcast about author-agent creative collaboration, showing up for your life and work, and how escapist television lead to a serious book project: https://t.co/wkd5CzTEOx 📚✏️☕

[Jessica Sinsheimer @jsinsheim]

@GSBrouwer Absolutely! I'm picturing someone putting the passage under a microscope, zooming all the way in, and finding tiny moving organisms between the letters.

Maybe we'll find the mitochondria that's the powerhouse of the sentence, too.

[Jessica Sinsheimer @jsinsheim]

@GSBrouwer You are! The funny thing is, I could tell from the first line it wasn't going to be for a job.

I like it how there are micro hints, sometimes, and we can't place them, but they're there.

[Jessica Sinsheimer @jsinsheim]

@SaraSchon It is absolutely glorious out today.
