@reviseresub.bsky.social #revpit #revpitwaiting I don't think I fully understand the #10Queries thing, can someone explain? R the manuscripts selected for it the finalists? R they at all related to who will win or are they picked at random? And are they posted anonymously?

#RevPitWaiting begins today! Please save our full schedule so you can prep your responses if you'd like. And please share with fellow revelers! Today (3/16) is in this thread. The following days will be posted on their own. 1/3

How the HEC do ppl make their posters for #PosterPit ?? Cuz looking at previous ones it seems like the whole #writingcommunity is also full of professional photographers and graphic designers, and im out here like the "graphic design is my passion" meme 🫠🫠

Good morningnight #writingcommunity 🌕 It's 00:30 in my local time and I just submitted to #RevPit for the first time! Now to pretend to forget about it so the waiting doesn't destroy me? Maybe I should sleep?????

yay! i thought i was gonna have to miss it but imma b able to make it :) (but according to their email, if u cant make it, they'll have recordings available later so no need to #FOMO)

posting this #WIPSnips a few days ago led me to over analyze this passage... and i ended up hating how overwritten it was... so I ended up rewriting it teeheehee R E V I S I O N S N E V E R E N D

traditionally publishing a book takes a LONG TIME because everything (from how much shelf space the title take ups, to how many ads to run, to how much touring will happen) is determined by how much interest the publisher believes there is, which in turn is determined by, YOU GUESSED IT, preorders

Today's #WIPSnips for the word "pursue" :) Man, I had fun writing the fake casting calls for this manuscript... vaguely based on my experience as an actor and the garbage casting calls out there :p
