there's no better feeling than being head over heels in love with your own writing, especially after a period of much doubt and despair

i honestly don’t know what’s worse as a querying author, the weeks of silence or a spree of rejections in the space of twenty four hours

"i think i'm gonna die in this house" i sing as i enter my god knows what month of querying

all roads lead to a blank word document

wow. i'm completely blown away by the love that was shown for all the devils + godless & wrecked during #questpit yesterday. to everyone who liked, reposted or commented on one of my pitches—THANK YOU. it means more than you could ever know!! 🥹🫶🏼

"you attract what you fear." *screams* oh no, a literary agent, jeepers creepers

i’m not writing, i’m exorcising my demons

"new year, new me." no, i will be exactly the same, if not worse
