Over the past fifteen years, I’ve built an editorial client base with a few select authors I love. One of these authors is Curtis H. von Dornheim, an author who works predominantly in non-fiction and can be found here.
I like editing and reading his work. If I didn’t, I would not be doing it. And when he told me he’d written a m/m romance novella, THE WINGS OF FATE, and wanted me to edit it, I jumped at the chance.
I fell in love with the story, and I just submitted it to one of my favorite e-publishers. I’m working as his author advocate, but I’m just as excited about getting this story published as I am about getting my own fiction published. Though the concept of author advocate is new, it’s slightly different from acting as a literary agent. I don’t take queries and I don’t read unsolicited work. I go after my clients and ask them for permission to act as their advocate because I love their work. I’ve been doing this quietly for a while. But I wanted to go public with this one because I love the story so much.
So here’s hoping my instincts and my contacts prove me well. I’d love to see Curt break into fiction. And I think m/m romance readers will love THE WINGS OF FATE.
