Hey, I’m Amanda.

I’m currently querying adult fantasy (with horror elements) and revising adult climate SF and YA SFF. All of it is queer!

Let's Hang Online!

Querying: CHILD OF SILK AND SHIELD

  • Adult fantasy with horror elements

  • Complete at 92K words

A promotional graphic for 'Pitch' featuring a dark background with red and white text. The text includes a tagline about surviving madness and saving a kingdom. The image contains three photos: a silhouette of a medieval castle on a hill, a worn-out cloth bag, and a mysterious dark tunnel with steps leading into it.

In Progress…

EAT OUR DUST

Adult action-adventure SF

Comps:

  • MOON OF THE TURNING LEAVES (Waubgeshig Rice) – Humanity’s relentless drive to survive after societal collapse

Updating, revising | Prev. 60% full request rate, big 5 editor interest

THE CARRION CROWN

YA SF/F

  • THESE VIOLENT DELIGHTS, Chloe Gong (Shakespearean family feuds)

  • Bungo Stray Dogs (gangs with business-like structures and morally-grey leaders)
