I’m overjoyed to announce that I'm now represented by the amazing Stuti Telidevara and Peter Knapp at @ParkandFine. Elated and moved by their enthusiasm for my novel. There aren't enough adjectives to describe how excited I am for the road ahead! 💖💖💖

Oh my.

This AIA Archaeology Hour with Chip Colwell, which looked at the origins of "stuff" was so fascinating! However, I made a joke in the chat about having too many books and was asked "why I need to buy books" at all. Um...😳 #writing #Archaeology #BookLoversUnite
