WHAT'S NEW...

May 14, 2022

This past week I had the fortune of signing with a supportive, smart, talented agent. The preceding adjectives are so important. As artists, we are gifted with the opportunity to achieve immortality, as our works will certainly outlive us. That's a pretty unique and spellbinding thing that makes me glad I'm not a dentist.

​

But we're also cursed with insecurities, fears, and constant evaluation of self--in so many ways, we are our product. In these dark nights I wish I made fillings. Writing is also a lonely art. It's a constant exercise of the mind, pushing it, coaxing it to deliver. It's a gift to have someone on your team who can see your soul and, thus, the soul of your work. It goes beyond competency. Your agent need not be only your broker, or at least I don't want one who is. She ain't selling my house.

​

So, finding Colleen and Audrey at MacGregor and Luedeke Lit was that cosmic gift that happens too infrequently, giving my delicate and personal work life. More crucial than that, home. Thank you both.

​

And as always, to my readers for being here.
