Deal Announcement: Debut Novel!
April 25*, 2025
Today, the news is both official and public: my debut novel, THE KEEPERS, has been signed for publication with Quills and Cosmos Press!
The stars have aligned in finding the champion for my witches, who have been waiting for someone with both editorial vision and publishing chutzpah to take them (and their author) on the next step of this adventure. That step, of course, is the biggest, as it’s into the world.
More announcements will follow, as we help the witches into their final form and pave the way for the TURNERS saga to truly take off.
Today, though, is a day of celebration, as the Quills and Cosmos family comprises four remarkable authors whose stories deserve the world! Joining their like is a true honor, and feels like coming home for these characters.
The announcement put forth today from Quills and Cosmos reads:
We're thrilled to announce that Quills and Cosmos Press has officially signed our fifth author! Please join us in welcoming Sarah Goehrke (she/her) to the Quills and Cosmos family. Sarah is a captivating storyteller, and her novel is as fierce as it is full of heart.
Her upcoming book, THE KEEPERS, follows Aleris, a young woman who learns early on that magic is dangerously abnormal. But when she finally embraces her own witchery, she sets in motion a chain of events that will change more dates than just her own.
At Quills and Cosmos, we believe in the power of stories that reclaim magic, defy expectation, and give voice to those too often silenced. THE KEEPERS is one of those stories—and we're honored to bring it into the world with Sarah. Keep an eye out for more news as we prepare for its release in Summer 2026! Follow along for sneak peeks, updates, and more by joining us on social media and subscribing to our Substack.
My most heartfelt thanks to Quills and Cosmos for understanding the witches’ world and taking this journey with us!
Bonus shoutout to the Query Trench Besties for the behind-the-scenes support, humor, encouragement, memes, possums, and Band-Aids. You know I’d be lost without you.
See you soon, world,
Sarah (and the witches, queens, and cats you’ll meet in THE KEEPERS!)
*canonically, if you believe Miss Congeniality, the Perfect Date
The beautiful announcement from official Quills and Cosmos Press. Ooh la la.
