Sooo my title probably ruins the surprise a little bit, huh? This is the news I have been promising you on twitter and facebook! I’ve signed with an agent!
Me!
A real, live agent! Not to be confused with a not-live one. Like a plastic one. Or rubber.
My story is a short, fast-paced, crazy-lucky one. The condensed version: I received offers! And I accepted one from Sara Megibow of the Nelson Literary Agency!!!!
(I am also REALLY bad at photoshop)
You all probably remember when Sara was a guest judge here on the Sisters in Scribe blog, yes? If not, that post is here. Sara is fantastic! She’s professional, assertive, super nice, and about a zillion other gushy things. And now she's my agent!
*confetti*
And to celebrate, I’m giving away books from Nelson Agency authors, over at my blog! For full giveaway details, and the slightly longer story of how Sara and I came together, check out this post.
(Very) Happy Thursday!

LISA! *hugs* Thank you, thank you!
When I grow up I want to be just like you! congrats.
I just JUST stumbled onto your site, which is fortuitous and fabulous because I JUST (one less just than the site-stumbling) ALSO signed with a book agent. So I am very newly introduced to the YA author world... and the fact that there is such a COMMUNITY. It is really cool.. and awesome... and wonderful.
So anyway -- just wanted to say congratulations, and good luck! I'm excited to watch your trajectory!
Yes, Lacey. I knew what your news was. If I don't try to work it out it just pops into my mind. As soon as you tweeted me I had it ;) I usually miss my own stuff because I'm emotional about things I want. I'll teach you how to do it.
Jen, CONGRATS!!!!! And thank you for finding us! We're happy to have new friends. The YA community is awesome.
Simon, that sounds fun! And should prove to be a very interesting experiment. :-)
Congratulations, that's fantastic!
Thanks, Keri! :D
