Gayle Brown, Author

The next time I'm asked what I do for a living, I'm going to say, "I'm an engineer." If they ask what kind, I'll say, "story engineer." After all that's what I do––I plan, design, and build stories using words #amwriting #amquerying #WritingCommunity #writersoftwitter

Here’s to being agented again! #WritingCommunity #writers #agented #MondayMotivation #cheers

@JAMoy92 I was just in that same position and landed an agent! You’ve got this! Best of luck 🤞🏻

Unfortunately, my agent left the industry. I’ll be heading back into the querying trenches again, which is especially rough since I thought I finally found my agent after 8 years. But I have confidence I’ll soon find the perfect champion! So those interested in my new MS:
