❖ ''We're at six thousand feet, Cap'n. There shouldn't be land at six thousand feet.'' ❖ Rav is apprenticed by his father's wishes on an airship as unsettling as the deliveries it makes. Dreamcatcher's owner is the only captain on the continent who will sail any cargo through any part of the sky. Even parts nobody else will go. So when the ship gets caught in a storm and left rudderless in the Khaalee Navachandr, a ship-eating crescent in the middle of the ocean, nobody is coming to rescue them. Their only hope is to reach land to make repairs. The land they find, though, might only bring more trouble. ❖❖❖ Entry in Wattpad's 2020 Open Novella Contest. Shortlisted.

*Wattys Winner 2022* Charles Abbot is finally living the life he has always dreamed of. At only 25, he has managed to turn his unique magical ability of copying memories into a profitable business. However, his comfortable life is shattered when he is tricked by a thief into extracting a dangerous memory. Not only does it reveal that there's a cult murdering children in their city, but by possessing this memory, Charles' life--and the lives of everyone close to him--are now in danger. Recruiting the help of a gay potion-maker and a ten-year-old lightning-wielding prodigy, Charles must now find that thief and try to put an end to this cult's workings. But it won't be easy. In a world where each magician's power is unique and at times undetectable, it's hard to know who to trust... Set in a world of magic inspired by 1860s Victorian England, Dangerous Thoughts is full of diverse characters and interesting twists that will keep you guessing until the very end.

The Truth About Literary Agents is a sometimes humorous introduction to the world of literary representation, with profiles for both agents and their clients. In a climate where sheer volume has excluded authors from submitting their manuscripts directly to major publishers, the agent is often the only available path to landing written work on an editor's desk. Read how good agents are best placed in the industry to make money for themselves and the writers they represent. Also read how a few bad apples employ questionable tactics, making promises they never had any intention of keeping. Getting the right agent can be tough, but getting a publishing contract without one can be a whole lot tougher.
