@johnmcusick Hi, I queried you when you were closed, without realizing that you were closed. Is it okay to resend my query since you are officially open now?

@thenameislumen When someone pointed it out to me it was so glaring, but the language was so automatic to me in the moment! People need reminding.

Someone graciously checked me on this, and I want to make a correction— my definition of under-represented voices extends to white or white appearing under-represented authors, of which there are many. BiPoc would probably have been the better term to use here. My apologies!
John Cusick Updates Only@johnmcusick

As always, I want fiction (adult, YA, kidlit) from under-represented voices. That means non-white, queer, disabled and neurodiverse. And I want the story *you* want to tell. That's burning for *you*.

@johnmcusick I just watched it and really liked it. She has Wednesday down pat. And the character does feel weird still, even among other weirdos, because she embraces her weirdness.

So, we watched the first ep of Wednesday, and while I think the cast is stellar, it feels odd to see the Addamses among other "weirdoes." I think they work better juxtaposed against normie suburbia.

@NeilHellegers It's definitely worth a look. It's not a bad show! It's just a funny mashup that highlights a (now absent) cool element of the original concept, methinks.

@gerradbohl It depends on the genre. For fantasy, north of 100,000 words is okay. For contemporary realistic, I'd recommend south of 80,000, but it varies!

@RmiltonAmos I think of Richard K Morgan as sci-fi and fantasy, so definitely a yes there. I'm less a fit for straight contemporary fiction aimed at adults.
