98K Adult Cyberpunk, SF

Update from Bluesky:

"I still have 25 queries from October, 16 from November and 15 from December that I need to reply to (either request more pages or pass).

That won't happen for a few more weeks so if this is your query please bear with me (or withdraw if you prefer).

I have now made a whopping 34 manuscript partial/full requests including (I am NOT proud of this) 8 manuscripts from 2023 and 2024. I have my reasons for not letting go. Don't judge me.

That said... I do plan to reply to these ASAP.

Across all fulls and partials I am prioritizing YA (all genres), MG (all genres), adult SF and adult Horror.

So, these reads will happen first.

Once I've responded to all of these (ie offered or passed) I'll turn my attention back to the remaining adult fantasy partials and fulls.

Over the course of this time I'll also be trying to Read and respond to queries, with the same priorities I've already described.

I am not on social media much but if you have questions feel free to ask. If you want to know if your query is still under consideration please feel free to message via QM!"
