🦸‍♂️ COVER REVEAL 🦸‍♂️ I’m beyond excited to share the North American cover of my queer romcom WE COULD BE HEROES, coming out in Pride season 2024 from @PutnamBooks! A huge thank you to @artbycheyne for absolutely nailing this pulpy, campy, joyous artwork. Not all heroes wear capes.

For anyone who yearns, yes, but also everyone who breathes and wonders and fears and risks human connection! Buckle up for (pitch voice) FLEISHMANN meets REALLY GOOD, ACTUALLY, as only Amy could write it. It’s going to knock your socks off.

When you're right, you're right, @CescaMajor !!!
Such a joyful, wonderful read @SophieCous - a brilliantly clever premise with so many laugh out loud moments and a really swoony ending that brought tears to my eyes. Loved x @KateDresser @HodderBooks @LitAgentClare

the thing about giving birth is it’s the most fucked up, lawless, horrifying experience I’ve ever had in my LIFE. but at least the whole time I knew i’d chosen my own suffering

A secret fave of editorial organization is going into the newly-created author's name folder to retrieve the original manuscript from the very first email from the agent about the project. Very satisfying!
