I am so beyond excited to have Cass join the Ladderbird team! Their storytelling and characters are magical and their writing is just breathtaking. I can’t wait for you all to fall just as deeply in love as I am with Felix, Loren, and the rest of the VESUVIUS cast!✨🌋

I HAVE AN AGENT! 💫 Over the moon to announce I’ve signed with @AnnaliseErrico of @LadderbirdLit! Annalise understands VESUVIUS, my queer YA Historical Fantasy, at its core, and she’s the best champion for my work in all its angsty, tender, romantic vulnerability.
Art by Twitter user Calicoture of Twitter user Cassbeewrites’ original characters. Piece depicts two 17 year old boys laying in a field of red poppies. One boy has white skin with grey eyes, copper hair, and is wearing a blue tunic. He holds a Roman helmet under his arm. The other boy has brown skin and brown eyes, long brown hair in a braid, and is wearing a yellow tunic. Text overlaid on the image reads “I HAVE AN AGENT!”

Holy moley... So I'm doing @Voyage_YA's #NovelLab course, and a massive drawcard is agent feedback on your 1st 15k words. Mine just arrived, and it's full-on but EXACTLY what I needed — what's great, what's not working and what to do, with *manuscript notes*! 😍😍😍

Wish I had a time turner. I'm sad to be missing @RacquelHenry's session at #FullSailWrites on Writing Query Letters. Definitely looking forward to the replay for that! ❤️
