Hi, Bluesky! It’s been a minute and I so have updates for you. But first: I’m being impersonated by an email scammer. Please report and delete any emails from: DanieleHunterMcIntoshAgency [at] gmail . com. This is NOT ME. Any agent emails I send will be through QM or my company address.
I am one of the people who helped edit the last three books in the series, and I agree with this. JKR has shown that she enjoys her cruelty, and no matter how much I loved the books back then, I can't watch this.
I respect trans people, so it's such a little thing for me to not watch the Harry Potter trailer or show. The proceeds from that property go directly to funding anti-trans work. It's a straight line from HP to destroying lives. I can actually SAVE TIME by not supporting this. It requires NOTHING.
Still open till 11:45 pm tonight!
While I’m still closed to general queries as I catch up and evaluate my bandwidth, I’m doing my best this year to work with more conferences & donate more to auctions I believe in. One of those is open now via Book Lovers for Liberation, I’ve given two hourlong AMA Zooms! url-shortener.me/D5DD

Do I have any editors following me here who are knitters? @christaheschke.bsky.social and I are about to go out with a queer YA rom-com that’s knitting centric! Let me know if you’d like to see it. 😊🧶

Hey, can we talk about JOY? Join your local progressive groups, y'all! Working with neighbors to help us all can be one of the most joyful things in everyday life. Every time I join anything, I see these kinds of smiles. Here's a 🧵 of photos to inspire you. blacksky.community/profile/did:...
Your pal @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social at the West Indian Day Parade in Brooklyn. Genuinely hard to take a bad picture of this dude. That's the @nywfp.bsky.social float behind him - follow them and let's make this man mayor and get him the progressive caucus he needs to get things done, NYC!
Everyone give a welcome and follow to my lovely boss! :)
Hello BlueSky authors, writers, editors, agents and book publishing community! I'm Christa Heschke, Literary Agent at McIntosh & Otis. I'm finally on BlueSky and happy to connect with everyone:)
Update! I have 3 slots left. I also had someone reach out who needs directed donations for food. So if you’re interested, please message me and I’ll tell you where to donate, then we’ll set up a critique or AMA. :)
Writers! I’ll critique a query letter and first page for 5 people in exchange for a donation to a food bank, local restaurant with a free-meal program, program collecting funds for people in need of food, etc. If you need food, or know someone who does, DM me or comment below. ❤️❤️❤️
If you're looking for ways to support folks in the Deep South losing their SNAP benefits you can join YHF in funding groceries for local communities using this link: action.yellowhammerfund.org/a/donate-to-...

Any math and creative wizards out there who can show us how much water Adobe Max used during its AI-propoganda keynote yesterday? I'd be curious.
Finally emerging from Migraine Hell today, and the first order of business was a fall/Halloween makeover for my bookshelf! 🎃👻

Every client's book release is an exuberant special occasion to me! This one is also deeply personal. 💕 INTO THE DEEP BLUE was the second book my lovely boss ever let me sign to our brand-new shared list. I was head-over-heels in love with it, and I can remember the day so clearly. (1/)
Tell me your favorite queer picture book in the comments! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
To queer and disabled writers: I am with you. I AM you. And I WILL ALWAYS FIGHT FOR YOU.
TL;DR stop coming for autism and start looking at the number one killer of children in the U.S. I hope lots of things for this book, but mostly, I hope it makes even a small difference, and I'm so lucky @danieledhunter.bsky.social believes in queer, disabled books❤️
The inimitable @kadedishmon.bsky.social's queer horror novella HERE FOR A GOOD TIME published today via Chain Letter! I could agent for a thousand years & never gush enough about how beautiful, haunting, and crucial Kade's writing is, or how proud I am to be his agent. 💕 substack.com/home/post/p-...
Here for a Good Time

My "mundane superpower" has always been reading quickly (which I know is a privilege in my profession). This year, though, I’ve been juggling an intense workload, ever-fun Health Stuff, & wading back from burnout. So it’s been a struggle to stay on top of my reading at all, let alone quickly. (1/)
[insert caption about almost forgetting this is the whole point, etc.] I would like to thank @taylorlgrothe.bsky.social for being fun and wonderful, Michelle and @danieledhunter.bsky.social for taking so many pics, and Buster the cat for hosting us at his home, @splitrockbks.bsky.social📚🐱❤️
Hello from me and my new glasses! The better to see your queries with. :)
@transswiftie.bsky.social has shown me the magic of drag shows! Also, I learned to disco (badly)!
