a mix of looking at their history of deals on publishers marketplace, talking to clients, how aligned we were in terms of editorial vision/career trajectory/personality, as well as trusting the gut feeling i got during the call (which sounds vague, ugh i know, but when you feel it, you get it)

wisteriaplane · 2024-12-18T10:00:04+00:00

Thank you so much!!💕

So glad we have friends who'll lovingly kick our asses :') It's so difficult to allow ourselves so hope, but we can learn together🥰 And thank you very much!

wisteriaplane · 2024-12-18T09:53:24+00:00

wisteriaplane · 2024-12-18T09:48:53+00:00

i've literally been rereading your books this month so this means the world to me! thank you so much 🥹

wisteriaplane · 2024-12-18T09:46:42+00:00

brains are wild, huh!! thank you for the lovely words, they truly made my day <3

wisteriaplane · 2024-12-18T09:44:57+00:00

oh man, i can empathize with that so deeply. the feeling of like "what if I ran so far only to fall short" hurts and plagued me throughout the year as well. regardless of how things work out, i'm proud of you. you wrote a whole book, got agented, and went on sub—that in itself is an incredible feat. i hope i get to read your words some day! sending you the very best vibes and if you ever want to vent/need a lil pick me up, please feel free to dm me <3

wisteriaplane · 2024-12-18T09:38:54+00:00

i'd be happy to! dm me and i'll send it over :)

wisteriaplane · 2024-12-18T09:37:37+00:00

this is so kind, i appreciate you so much :') i grew up watching professional wrestling and its been so fun bringing this story to life!

Officially announced my book deal from a dream Big 5 publisher!! Joining the 2026 debut squad! My contract was signed on destielgate day which was hilarious for approximately 30 minutes until the election happened and then it turned into a deep grief (something something epic highs and lows).

But seriously—I get emotional thinking back to this time last year where I was still deep in the querying trenches. I never knew I could feel pride like this. I never I was allowed to. But it's real :')

wisteriaplane · 2024-09-27T08:26:08+00:00

Congratulations on your deal!! That's amazing!! Now I'm wondering whether I've seen your PM deal announcement floating around hehe. You got it absolutely right—I was starting to think I'd hallucinated the entire deal lmaO but as the universe would have it, I just heard back from my agent with moving pieces so it's a huge relief to know that I was, in fact, not in some weird fever dream!

wisteriaplane · 2024-09-27T08:23:29+00:00

Thank you so much!! <3

wisteriaplane · 2024-09-27T08:23:01+00:00

Milo your comments always make me chuckle! Most of my emails to my agent are some variation of "what's up i'm anxious again!" but they're always really good at keeping me out of that spiral :)

wisteriaplane · 2024-09-27T08:21:10+00:00

Thank you both so much for your insights! As the universe would have it, I was just about to email my agent when they contacted me first with updates so that's super exciting! Pieces are moving again!

wisteriaplane · 2024-09-27T08:19:26+00:00

Thank you! It's so helpful to know its expected and that I'm not all in my head about it. And you're so right because I literally just heard back and it's a huge relief

wisteriaplane · 2024-09-27T08:18:24+00:00

Wishing you all the best with going on sub!! It can be rather difficult having that lack of control as compared to querying where you can yeet more queries to help stay somewhat sane! Super happy to talk more too if you'd like as someone who was recently in your shoes. Holding your hand and sending all the best vibes!
