Name:

Mary Tosin

 

What you Write:

I float between middle-grade, young adult, and even adult fantasy, science fiction, and contemporary literature.

 

Agent:

Ramona Pina

 

Why BookEnds?

BookEnds was my top choice, so much so that I only queried a few agents. I’ve been following BookEnds’ YouTube channel for a few years. I absolutely loved the vibe and honesty from the founder Jessica Faust and agent James McGowan. If I did not get so lucky to meet my fantastic agent, I always intended to keep writing and submit to BookEnds. Lol.

 

What genres do you write? Read?

I write close to the genres that I love to read. I am a huge fan of YA Fantasy, Sci-fi, contemporary, and dystopian. When I write, my main characters usually come with their story and target audience. So every new tale is a journey for me to write.  

 

Plotter or pantster?

I am a pantster. If I were to ever outline a book, in my mind the book is complete and I would never return to it. 

 

Synopses, love them or hate ‘em?

Hate them, or more so a synopses, hell even a short summary, is like Kryptonite to me. I can write a whole book, but my brain cannot process it when it comes to breaking it down. LOL.

 

Do you have a writing playlist or a vision board? If so, what’s on them?

I don’t have a music list. I listen to anything. Music, however, is often my biggest inspiration for writing. I get story ideas just by listening to a random song. I can also write without music, but if I start playing music and I realize a song is aiding my writing process. I would only listen to that song while writing that particular book.

 

Drink of choice when writing? When not writing? 

When writing, I like to have water or tea. When I am not writing, I do like coffee.

 

Day or Night writer?

Morning. I write best when I wake up at 4 am. 

 

Twitter or Instagram? Or Facebook? Where can we find you?

At the moment, Twitter @dreamandglow.

 

If you could meet any author, living or dead, who would you want to meet and why?

George R. R. Martin. I was so excited to learn that he is a pantster. I would just love to sit down with him and ask how he created such a dynamic epic series.

 

Where can readers find you on the web and social media?

@dreamandglow on the bird app.
