Thanks so much for the chance to consider your work and sorry for my long delay in responding. You may have already found a great home for this by now. Unfortunately, I’m not the right agent advocate currently. I wish you success with the project.

Timeless telling styles always entice me as a bicentennial baby fed on Bemelmans, Betsy-Tacy, Burnett, and the Brontës. Yet I am especially hungry for bold, change-making projects that promote underrepresented perspectives and foster inclusion. Certainly, the two categories are not mutually exclusive. My favorite books are character-driven, quirky, heartfelt, slyly humorous, and ultimately hopeful.
