Intros & Newbies Hello, all!

[MorganSloan]

Hey, everybody! I'm Jo Morgan Sloan. I go my Jo in my day-to-day, and Morgan is my pen name. I'm querying three fiction novels at this time, rewriting a seven-book fanfiction series, and I also write nonfiction essays and poetry. I was fortunate enough to be published last year in Drunk Monkeys, was shortlisted in an essay contest, and am proud to say my favorite book baby is currently longlisted for the Chanticleer Somerset Award! I joined Savvy Authors to participate in the Sweetheart Pitchfest—last year, I had a bad experience with a schmagent, so I'm much more cautious and selective about sending out queries and have slowed way down.

Hope to meet new people and make some good connections. I'm in Northern California if anyone's around here!
