This is one of those books that reminds you of the thrilling feeling of finding a work you love--and a writer kind enough to go on the journey with you. Honored to work with you, Amy.
Happy to announce … I’ve tunneled my way out of the query trenches and am now represented by the amazing @Jsinsheim at @ContextLiterary! (Pretty sure this is actually happening outside of my head.) Can't wait to launch to Mars with my upmarket sci-fi debut. 🚀.#WritingCommunity.

Thrilled to talk with client Ted Fox on his Working Drafts podcast about author-agent creative collaboration, showing up for your life and work, and how escapist television lead to a serious book project: 📚✏️☕.

Anyway, yes, this is your daily dose of Jessica wishing she had funding for neuroscientific studies of how reading affects our minds. And yes, I would love to (safely, comfortably, if claustrophobically) monitor a willing agent’s brain while reading submissions.

We know that imagining an image “lights up” (via a PET scan) the same areas of the brain as would be activated when actually seeing it. Do we think imagining a scent “lights up” similar areas, too, and we can get scent impressions this way? We know scent is linked to memory!.

I was reading a manuscript last night that featured a very vivid scent of roses. 🌹. Now, out in the world, there’s a rose scent in the air—and I thought immediately of her work. They talk about scent as memory—do we think it could work this way too?.

That moment when you have one free glorious hour, decide to take a walk with your coffee…and forget said coffee, further proof that you need it.

Full episode + video clip here! Many thanks to @ericafinkel for talking with us. 📚🥰.
Thanks @ericafinkel for the great chat on @MSWLMA ! I loved hearing about the acquisition process from an editor's perspective. Good to remember that taking on a MS means an editor wants to read it over and over and over. 📚💕🔁.
