I'm excited to be open again for submissions! Hit me up with your best fantasy, sci-fi, crime and thriller. I'd love a high concept thriller, anything speculative and a big epic fantasy in particular. More info here: dhhliteraryagency.com/harry-…

If you’re writing for children or young adults and you’re ready to share your work with agents, keep me in mind. I’m very much on the lookout for a new talent to work with. Submissions guidelines are on the AMH website.

I’ve had lots of new followers lately (thank you!) after tweeting about mature writers. (How I had a breakout book at 58!)
So here’s a link to my top tips for getting published.
Be warned, it’s honest. About the ups & DOWNS.
Good luck, all!! #amwriting

Novel-in-Development Award UPDATE
The adults are all done with their reading and feedback for the first round, but we're just waiting on our kid reader's finishing up (we never like to be too strict with them) and then we'll get a longlist together and published.
Newsletter is best place to monitor for further news, though we'll also post here, too.

Sometimes, just occasionally, I wonder if me being a children's author is making any difference to the world.
Everything seems so huge and terrible, I think, how can one small book impact on that? How can it be important in the grand scheme of things?
