Wow. I am *speechless*. This was the first time I’d entered a contest like this and I had zero expectations about getting out of the slush. Thank you for the awesome opportunity, Brenda (and the rest of the Dream Team)!
Absolutely ADORE the cover to Library Jumpers. It’s beautiful and eye-catching and epic. Can’t wait to read it, it looks fantastic.

I don’t know if I’m allowed to say or if there’s a contest reason they only list titles before the agent round.
Oh. Is that a thing? o.O
I thought that was just so the agents couldn’t swoop in early, or to build the tension of the Pitch+250 reveal.
Love the cover!!! 😀
Happy Birthday! Great cover-she looks like an ice queen that could kick my a**
Wow. Thx, ladies for seeing (hearing?) something sparkly in Phreak Show. You’re all goddesses.
And to add to the chorus: a.m.a.z.i.n.g. cover, Brenda. Also, happy birthday.
Thank you everyone! I’m so happy about it! <3
1. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BRENDA!
2. The cover looks amazing — also, can’t wait to read it. I have a real thing for libraries, dating back to my childhood when I used to sit in the stacks at our local library reading for hours while my mom grocery shopped in town : )
3. And finally, thank you for choosing me for your team — Squeeeee!
