My boss got me a gnome from France 🥹 I love him

Thinking about revitalizing my YouTube channel but would anyone really listen to me yap about writing and publishing for 15+ minutes 🤔

You don't need AI as an indie author, you need community. You need people who can help you when you're burning out (and vice versa, importantly). Trade labor with each other, beta read for one another, connect with editors and cover artists. Teach & learn. Help promote one another.

I love real art so much

Turned my revisions in to my agents

This year has been incredible. It’s easy to get caught up in “what’s next” and “what ifs,” but it’s important to look at how far you’ve come, too This year I… -Connected with more editing clients than ever -Joined Storm as an agency assistant -Got an agent -Started Secret Project for RevPit

Authors: Make sure your query is NOT too vague. “They must face dire consequences / a difficult choice / a big threat” are all too vague. Give concrete details of what the characters are facing and why the reader should be on the edge of their seat about it! #writersky #amquerying

The cycle of wondering why I have a headache before realizing I've been clenching my jaw for the last 24hrs 🫠

TODAY 👀 go forth and find your match! #FiFRevPit

Can I admit something? I definitely *do* judge books by their cover... and their titles.

Got my edit letter back from my agent (!!!) and I'm sooo ready to get back to these messy characters! #amwriting #writersky #writingcommunity

My grounded fantasy, HEARTS (revising) was inspired by San Francisco, which I've always found beautiful My speculative horror CLAY WIP (drafting) was inspired by Prague, specifically in the 1950s :) #FiFRevPit

Happy Saturday! What did you get accomplished this week?? Celebrate yourself and congratulate fellow writers! #FiFRevPit #writingcommunity #writersky #writersofbluesky

For folks looking for some guidance on how to write a pitch for #mockpit (or for #amquerying in general) @jenichappelle.bsky.social has some great tips! #FIFRevPit #writingcommunity

Hey #MockPit -- a couple things I'm seeing: 1. we don't need the title in the pitch 2. make sure you learn and include the standard genre and age category abbreviations. this doesn't super matter for mockpit but does for pitch events! Y'all are killing it with the aesthetics #RevPit #FiFRevPit

Remember the old days when you only had 140 characters and NO images to pitch your book? What a time 😅 #MockPit #amquerying

#MockPit #FiFRevpit starts now! Until 8 p.m. ET, post your pitch and get feedback from editors and other participants. Feel free to jump in with advice and praise, too! The more feedback, the better. #RevPit #writingcommunity #writersky #amquerying

“Well if you’re done having your lover’s quarrel, I’d like to talk to our resident state brat, if you don’t mind." 🤫💔👂 #FiFRevPit

#RevPitFiF For Fall into Fiction, I (your resident chaotic witch editor), will be running bonus writing sprints. Every Tuesday ( November 4th, 11th, 18th, and 25th), from 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM Mountain Standard Time. AKA 12:30 PM to 1:30 PM ET

💖ANNOUNCEMENT💖 So excited to share that I'm now represented by Danai Christopoulou and Ann Rose at @TheTobiasAgency !! I'm so excited to share my queer, speculative, macabre stories with editors 💖

News tomorrow….. 👀💖 #writersky #writersofbluesky

#RevPit friends, I've sent out all of my #10Queries emails! It was so fun reading everyone's submissions again. Don't forget to join us for Fall Into Fiction! #FiF 👀 @reviseresub.bsky.social

It was a lot of fun going over everyone’s queries and pages! A lot of prologues this year. If you’re looking for some editing, I’m now booking for 2026! 💖🥳 madheditorial.com

Announcement! RevPit's Fall into Fiction is back and it will all take place here on Bluesky! We hope to provide support, accountability, and a welcoming, inclusive community for fiction writers who are drafting, editing, or querying a novel this fall (11/3-21) #RevPit #RevPitFiF

Welcome to hour 6 of #10Queries ! I had a hard time fitting my feedback in the 300 character limit, so I want to say here that all submissions were excellent and worth pursuing. Let's get started! #RevPit

It's my turn 👀🤭 Welcome to my #RevPit #10Queries! Let's do this 😎 Guide: Q - Query P - Pages A - Adult YA - Young Adult F - Fantasy SF - Science Fiction T - Thriller CR - Contemporary Romance

It's my turn for #RevPit #10Queries! As @jenichappelle.bsky.social explained, these were randomly assigned. You're welcome to ask questions, even if the letter isn't yours. I'm around pretty much all day so I'll field them as I can. Okay, here we go!

It’s #RevPit day! The world is on fire, but today the RevPit editors invite you to spend some time honing your craft with us. Because stories matter. Your story matters. So. I’m awake and caffeinated and full of querying advice. And I’m up first with my #10Queries! Who’s ready?

Working on your query letter? Conciseness is key: #amquerying #writersky #writersofbluesky #10Queries

Writing friends: When you have a query out and have revised your book, DO NOT withdraw your query! That will put you to the back of the line, if the agent is even open by the time you're ready to resubmit. If you have updated materials, send a message to ask if you may send them. #amquerying

More advice on stakes in your query letter! #RevPit #amquerying #writersky #writersofbluesky

15. Tag your editor friends! These peeps are great: @fromcarly.bsky.social @editsinthemargins.com @jenichappelle.bsky.social @mollyrookwood.bsky.social @madelynknecht.bsky.social @bookrealmrevisions.bsky.social @miranda-darrow.bsky.social @meganrecords.bsky.social @ashpreads.bsky.social

Things are happening......

Jumping into these queries and WOW. This one is SO GOOD. I'm blown away. I want to read this immediately #10Queries #RevPit

Oh look it’s me again 🤭 Ready to do one of my favorite things: edit queries

💃THREE more days! 💃 Submissions open in three(!) days for your opportunity for FREE feedback from our lovely editors on your query letter + first pages. Question of the day: have you queried this manuscript before? What's your journey been like? #amquerying #amwriting #writersky #writersofbsky

Tell me everything 👀

Had an amazing time at a conference this weekend and came away with my brain full of things to mull over and share. One thing, that I also keep seeing: Questions in a query letter. Yay or Nay? Answer: nay Real Answer: It depends. But usually nay. #writingcommunity #amquerying #writersky

THIS FRIDAY!!! Are you excited, #RevPit?! If you're gearing up to enter RevPit #10Queries, here's everything you need: ⭐Complete query letter ⭐First 5 pages of manuscript The query and first 5 pages will need to be uploaded to the form in one document and should be a standard manuscript format

So excited for #RevPit #10Queries I love diving into queries and seeing what everyone's working on 😍

There are a couple of great sales of my books going on this month in the UK! Audible has THE LAST HOUR BETWEEN WORLDS (with incredible narration by Moira Quirk!) at £3.99! www.audible.co.uk/pd/The-Last-... And the Kindle edition of THE OBSIDIAN TOWER is 99p! www.amazon.co.uk/Obsidian-Tow...

I can't emphasize enough how important community is in #writing. I was stuck and feeling insecure about my writing, and one of my groups helped me identify the problem and level up my writing, AND boost my motivation Make writing friends!! Make connections!! That's so important!! #writingcommunity

🎉We're baaacckk!!!🎉 RevPit's #10Queries October event opens for submissions October 10! #amwriting #writersky #writersofbluesky

Reasons comps are necessary: a thread 🧵 #amquerying #amwriting #writersky Seeing lots of doubts and confusion surrounding comp titles and whether they're necessary, so here's why agents (and editors!) need them:
