Hi friends! I think I’m going to delete this account and move exclusively over to Insta/🧵—if I don’t have you over there and you have either, let me know!!

Hi, writers! The @litagtsofchange auction is live now through June 17! I'm offering a critique for any kidlit genre, as well as an AMA call for kidlit writers. Here's the link to the auction, I'll drop my direct links below! https://t.co/tQlL9dLEIB

[Sophia @slessardwrites]

@Rebecca_RWrites I cannot be stopped at this point

[Sophia @slessardwrites]

Someone needs to stop me from the series of increasingly more unhinged ya horror/horromantasy pitches I’m writing

[Sophia @slessardwrites]

Querying writer friends - Christa is a true champion of an agent and I couldn’t recommend querying her enough!!! Especially if you’re looking for someone with incredible editorial visions ☺️

[Christa Heschke @ChristaHeschke]

Writers, I'm excited to say I'm open to queries again! My #MSWL is mostly the same, but I'll post updates as I think of them!

[Sophia @slessardwrites]

@Natalie_Crown 👀

[Sophia @slessardwrites]

@DanieleDHunter I’m so grateful too 😭❤️❤️

[Sophia @slessardwrites]

Daniele is such a JOY to work with—if you are looking for an editorial agent who takes deep care in her feedback and truly sinks into your stories to see the heart of them, I cannot recommend querying Daniele enough!! (plus she's an amazing knitter)

[Daniele Hunter @DanieleDHunter]

Hi, writers! I'm Daniele, a junior agent about to reopen for my 2nd year accepting my own queries (!!!). I'm thrilled to share my #MSWL & updates.
