Very excited to be teaching two workshops at the Southwest Writers Conference this year! This is an awesome conference with some amazing authors all interested in the craft! If you have not attended a conference before, this is a great way to get started! Not only that, you get to also listen to the amazing Jane Porter speak!

Yikes, had a flood of scheduling things coming in. Suddenly it was time to get things on the calendar. I had a ton of conferences coming in and up until now, I had Post-It note reminders. Time for serious computer schedules! Wow, Summer through Fall is getting busy.
Still time to get me to your conference if you want me to present, listen to pitches and so forth. All you have to do is ask!

This is the bestest (yeah I said it) day of the year for Greyhaus Literary Agency. It is the day we celebrate all things romance. Remember, Greyhaus Literary Agency was established to represent ROMANCE!!!!!!!! You know, the whole HAPPILY EVERY AFTER thing! In times like this, we all need to simply get out there, get a great romance novel, curl up by the fire, turn off the stupid news, get a cup of tea (or whatever beverage you want) and get to your favorite Happily Ever After! Romance Writers of America Harlequin find that happy place!

Join us on April 5, 2025, for our 14th Annual Conference featuring Amazon Bestselling Author Christine Gunderson. We are very excited to bring you a selection of a dozen workshops and a wonderful keynote speaker at this year’s conference. The conference will take place at the Hilton Garden Inn in Hamilton, New Jersey once again. Registration is now open and if you’re interested in attending, we encourage you to register as early as possible. The early morning social media workshop will have hands-on elements and because of that, attendance at that two-hour special workshop will be limited to the first fifty (50) attendees. We are getting close to that number so please don't hesitate if you want to learn the secrets to what may make your social media get more engagement!

Reviewing proofs right now but I will have a new project out to authors via KDP focusing in on learning about the submission process. My "killer BETA reader" loved it. Can't wait to share. Just one more pass through on the proof.

Authors - Don't just throw darts and hope for the best. I get so many submissions, especially on Query Manager, where authors are just throwing the next project out to every editor and agent who is open to submissions. I honestly think they believe that "one of these times" someone will just sign them. To truly find an agent or editor who you might have a chance with requires doing your research and really demonstrating how your story is exactly what that person is looking for.

Do your research. Take the time.

Almost all caught up on submissions. Query manager IS caught up. I just have a couple of requested projects to read through. This is what holiday breaks are for - to get caught up on work!

Just a reminder to writing chapters and organizations. I am available to judge contests, guest blog, visit your chapters and certainly to attend your conferences. All you have to do is ask. I do not invite myself.
Here are some other perks...
I do not charge speaking fees.
I ask for assistance with transportation and hotel (if it is outside of the Pacific Northwest area.
When I am at your conference, use me from sunrise to sundown! I will teach multiple sessions, I will set on panels, I will keynote, I will listen to pitches. Don't waste your time and money for me to just come and listen to pitches for 2 hours.
Let me know what you want me to teach workshops on. We can work together.

Quiet around the house. Daughter is out with some last minute shopping, wife is at the gym, dogs are asleep, roast chicken is in the oven for the Chicken Noodle Soup for Xmas evening... what better thing to do? Get caught up on submissions. All Query Manager has been answered. All new submissions directly to the agency have been answered. I do have requested stories on my Kindle and will get to those shortly.

Have a great holiday season!!!!!!

Wishing all of you the happiest of holiday seasons. For all of you authors, make sure to thank your families for giving you chance to pursue your craft!
