If you’re writing for children or young adults and you’re ready to share your book with agents, do keep me in mind. I’m on the lookout for a fabulous new author to work with.

It's Mary Shelley's birthday. Celebrate by creating something you can't control and wondering whether it wants to exalt you or kill you.
