Amparo Ortiz | Story Time: How I Got My Literary Agent @amparoortiz2234 | Uploaded July 2020 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Welcome to the first post in my Story Time series! Today I'm sharing how I got my literary agent, Linda Camacho from Gallt & Zacker Literary Agency! Even though my querying journey is a bit unusual, I hope it can comfort writers who are currently deep in the query trenches (and even those who are on submission with editors!). And hey, there's bonus Kpop (obviously).
Do you have any questions about literary agents and/or query letters? Are you querying right now? Let me know in the comments!

PRE-ORDER BLAZEWRATH GAMES (10.6.20 // Page Street Kids)
"Experience the World Cup with dragons in this debut fantasy, set in an alternate contemporary world, in which riders and their steeds compete in an international sports tournament.
Lana Torres has always preferred dragons to people. In a few weeks, sixteen countries will compete in the Blazewrath World Cup, a tournament where dragons and their riders fight for glory in a dangerous relay. Lana longs to represent her native Puerto Rico in their first ever World Cup appearance, and when Puerto Rico’s Runner―the only player without a dragon steed―is kicked off the team, she’s given the chance.
But when she discovers that a former Blazewrath superstar has teamed up with the Sire―a legendary dragon who’s cursed into human form―the safety of the Cup is jeopardized. The pair are burning down dragon sanctuaries around the world and refuse to stop unless the Cup gets cancelled. All Lana wanted was to represent her country. Now, to do that, she’ll have to navigate an international conspiracy that’s deadlier than her beloved sport."
