Rewriting an old book in first person, and it's way better. I usually prefer reading third, but am finding my writing is better in first. Anyone else like this? #writingcommunity

No good news in the query trenches today, but I DID get an interview offer for a new job, so I will (hopefully)not be a starving artist 😁

Working on programming my bird call game to distract from the stress of querying. It grades your ability to mimic calls, and also will tell u what birds you sound most like. Anyone a bird nerd and wanna gimme suggestions for fun calls to add? #amquerying

GAH A PARTIAL REQUEST. Now I have a partial AND a full ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 🎉🎉🎉 (brb, sprinting off to hug my favorite pine tree) #amquerying

Two thoughts I had this morning, roughly 4 minutes apart: 1. I don't think I'm cut out for this. 2. I think this is the best book ever written. #writingcommunity #AmQuerying
