Just a post from a Portlander (OR, although we still think Maine is cool). I met up with my super supportive writers group at a local cafe, had an oat milk latte brewed to perfection and my biggest complaint is my library thrift store didn’t have the purple yarn I needed. We are doing ok.

Another agent to consider for my #dvpit friends
bethphelan.bsky.social beth phelan @bethphelan.bsky.social · 10d
#DVpit inspired me to reopen to queries sooner than I'd planned... Starting Nov 2025, I'll be open to unsolicited queries the first week of every month! Still just YA + MG fiction... Really hungry for 🤩 debut voices... You'll be able to submit here: querytracker.net/querybeth #mswl
Announcement: I will reopen to unsolicited submissions for the first week of every month starting in November! I’m only looking for YA + MG fiction. I am particularly hungry for debut voices! Also: - high-stakes plots about liars, scams, etc - fresh grounded dystopian with personal stakes - smart, cutting social commentary - meta shit and big twists - multigenerational stories - anything with a unique/risky approach or voice - ugly underbellies! gallt & zacker literary agency querytracker.net/query/querybeth www.bethphelan.com

Anyone in sunglasses looks like they're staring you down. Love that Portlanders showed up with their pups.

I was really happy to see a like or two, but the best part of the day was building a network of writers whose stories I want badly- I decided to participate last minute and I told myself that this was not the best medium for me, a neurosparkly human, to talk about my book. Grateful for this event!
