Love hearing the story! Our journey to publication sounds very similar in that I also queried hundreds of agents before ending up with a traditional publishing offer from a small press. Cheers and congratulations to you!
Thank you!! It has been a journey to get here, and it's so worthwhile. AND thank you, I'm so beyond excited for my witches to get out into the world!! 🤩
A rejection means "It's not for me" and that's great because my book isn't for everyone. Finding the right champion is the first major (post-writing) step on the way to finding the right readers 🥰 We shouldn't stop in the face of one no or 100.
And it's easier to do with amazing company like yours, my friend!
Congratulations!
I had a similar experience and also signed with a small press. :)
Thank you!
That's awesome, I love a small press journey. Congratulations to your journey and signing!!

And congratulations to you! Journeys like these are so much better with company, it gets lonely. I'm glad to be less alone! Cheers 🫶

Congrats! So excited to read! <3
Thank you!! I'm so excited for this story to get into the world 💖
“Witches bow to no queen, they hold loyalty to no crown.” - love this! Persistence really pays off. Can’t believe you’re already onto the next WIP!
Thank you!! I love that line, too (and kept it in despite occasional advice to remove it). Stubbornness pays off, too ;)
Always be writing something, right? I have the referenced very different WIP and two WIPs in the world of THE KEEPERS. Can't stop, won't stop?
So excited for you, Sarah! And loved getting this glimpse into your journey. Absolutely can’t WAIT to read your book!
Thanks so much, Sophie!! I'm glad it resonates. My book can't wait for you to read it!
I love that we're both on this journey -- following yours is a delight <3
