Book update #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

#WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

Just finished reading #MetalSlinger and that plot twist towards the end. Oh my God ! I’m shook and even though everyone was saying, ‘that plot twist is insane’ & I knew there was going to be one, it just took me completely by surprise. Insane. Never read a twist like that before! #ReadingCommunity

Morning must-have while working on edits — Spiced hot chai. What’s your must-have while working? #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

MYTH: CATS DON'T COMFORT YOU WHEN YOU ARE SICK. Last night I wasn't well when I went to bed. Lily, my rescue Indy doesn't like to sleep in bed with me. Last night she cuddled w/me over the blankets as I spent hours tossing,turning, not once did she leave me. She was awake the whole time, purring.

First draft ✔️ for my #Romantasy Now a 2 week break before diving into developmental edits💪🏼 #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

So, The Buccaneers S-2 Ep-6. This is why unfinished books shouldn’t be turned into a film or show. I think they decided to hire George R. R. Martin for this episode. Like seriously. W.T.A.F.

What is the wildest thing you’ve done in the name of research? #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

Okay, Question: what was the most recent stupid thing you did while working on your manuscript? Asking coz I did something stupid and I want to feel less alone. Note: the wilder and crazier the answer, the better I’ll feel 😉 #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying #AuthorsofBlueSky

68k words done, 35k or so more to go for this #Romantasy #WIP 💪🏼 #WritingCommunity

Been steadily gaining unwanted weight coz of bad eating habits. Decided to stop today. Now, I’m hungry. Like really really hungry. Everything sucks. #WritingCommunity

Hey #WritingCommunity Just passed the 40% mark of my Romantasy #WIP. I’m not freaking out & screaming with joy, please… I’m a serious adult. Also me:

Worked on my #MS everyday this week. Got 2 and a half chapters done. (My book is around 40 chapters total) I’m over the moon and ready to rock up this weekend with reading from my #TBR and watching movies with my parents 💪🏼💯 #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

Being a writer is accepting that consistency is the goal we’ll never reach… or so I’m realising these days 🙈 #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

Does anyone else disappear from socials when your nose deep in your MS? Or is it just me? #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

Tried to start working today (Monday). But then my ceiling starting leaking considerably out of nowhere, my haematologist then suggested I consult an oncologist and now I can’t work.🤷🏻‍♀️ #WritingCommunity

Just finished reading the Fate & Flame series by K. A. Tucker Loved! So good! #WritingCommunity

My first real writer’s block — I struggled to come up with an opening scene that needed changing. So I spent the last week, not working and focused on whatever I felt like doing. Today, I hashed out the scene with ease. Sometimes, you really need to, ‘give it time’🌟 #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

Hey #WritingCommunity I self-pubbed my first self-help non fiction book last year & the sales have been underwhelming to say the least. It’s available on KU, if you have a subscription, please download and read🙏🏼 #AmQuerying

I swear… if I see one more ad on insta on how to turn my fallen/pulled out teeth into a bracelet, I’m going to blow a lid. Even if I put all the awful things happening in the world on the side, the world is still going down the dumpster. What are we doing to ourselves ?!?

18k words into my MS and it’s already been edited over 8 times. Ready to move on… and how! #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

It’s been a while since I’ve come here to Bluesky. The last 2 weeks have been extremely emotionally challenging. Today was the first day that I could fathom working and got a good amount done on my MS. The anxiety is mostly gone, and I’m grateful to be alive & happy. #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

3 #SmallPitch requests so far! 🥳🥳🥳 Keeping my fingers crossed!🤞🏼 #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

People wonder if our phones are listening to our conversations. My Facebook stream is filled with palatial house and castle posts and this is what I dream of everyday, yet never talk about it. So, I guess I’m wondering if my phone can hear my thoughts and dreams 👀 #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

The life of an ADHD writer — Just thought up a brilliant rom-com romantasy duology story line. Wrote down the plot. Now have to find it in me to go back to my current Romantasy #WIP and keep at it👀 Anyone else go through this?! #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

When I first wrote the prologue for my current #WIP I thought it was the best thing I’d ever written. Thought that was the one thing I would never remove. Then, I hired a book dev consultant. 1 month later, that prologue has been scrapped. Editing is heart-wrenching. #Amquerying #WritingCommunity

Editing, re-writing and then editing my first 7 chapters of my #Romantasy #WIP I’m dying and yes I’m aware, it’s only the start of the week 🥹 Anyone else feel my pain?👀 #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

Thank you to everyone to who hyped & liked my pitch for #P2Ppit! What a lovey event and so happy to have new friends in this super talented #WritingCommunity & #AmQuerying group💯💛

Ok you guys, I’m so confused about #P2Ppit and how to distinguish the agent likes from the friendly likes of my fellow writers. Any suggestions or tips are WELCOME! #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

DOWNTON ABBEY X FRIENDS In 1855, the crème of British nobility attend a 2-week house party. Once the party begins, so does the madness! The days are riddled with impossible love, scandalous secrets AND an abduction..What could possibly go right?! #P2Ppit #UW #Q #A #R #HF #UW 📖

My two cents on the Lively/Baldoni drama unfolding all over the news. If either of them felt assaulted in any shape or form, file a criminal case. For the news outlets reporting it, there are serious, large-scale issues our world is currently facing. Focus on that plz & for Gods’ sake, LET THIS GO!

Really thoroughly enjoyed participating in #BluePit yesterday! Was super fun and made so many new friends! #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

Proof that I’m really just a nerd. Been making custom screensavers for my @supernote.com Nomad to distract from being sick🤷🏻‍♀️ #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

How I handle rejections of any kind but especially the ones that almost were… Me: Something better is right around the corner. I believe it, I know it. #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

I’ve come to the conclusion that only a total & complete Masochist would hire themselves a book develoment consultant. I have a very high tolerance for constructive criticism. But 2 hours, every week of non-stop criticism on how to make my #WIP better is 🤯 #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

Merry Christmas!!! #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

Christmas Day: made 10 bottles worth of my special mulled wine + delivery of mulled wine + family lunch + Xmas movie + conference call w/my book consultant + pack for family trip tomorrow. Holidays… 🤯 #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

TODAY: Spending time with family from out of town + big lunch with whole fam + prepped for making my special mulled wine for Tom morning — 10 bottles worth — holidays🤯

I’m so exhausted. The holidays can be so amazing but even more draining. Family is down from the U.K. and I’m struggling to stay awake through conversations. How is everyone else coping? #AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

Just finished watching The Substance. I’ve never felt more happy to be me. I’ve also never been more horrified than I am right now. W.T.A.F

Editing and editing and revising my historical rom-com until I can’t bear to look at it any further. Does anyone else relate? Do you feel like you can’t stand to look at your MS after your umpteenth edit? #WritingCommunity

Hello, writers! Visit the post below for the names of literary agents who will be participating in #P2Ppit. The list is still being updated as more agents show interest! #amquerying #writingcommunity path2pub.wordpress.com/p2ppit-path2...

I haven’t been this confused in a while😂 I commented on a post about curling hair with flat irons. Then I got a reply from someone saying this below it. Did I somehow insinuate that I can’t curl my hair with a flat iron because I’m a man!?! I really don’t get it. Someone help me out here🙏🏼🤓

Everytime I feel like there is a lull in my querying inbox, I receive rejections. I think I should stop thinking about it. Anyone know where I can get a lobotomy? #WritingCommunity

Anyone use WhatsApp chat to send yourself notes/thoughts that you have for your MS in the middle of the night? You know, when you’re 90% sleeping & 10% creatively dream walking? Lately, I’ve been doing this a lot. Am I the only one? #WritingCommunity

I’m working, even when I’m not working. Bloody weekends. @charmstrong.bsky.social this is all YOUR fault! #WritingCommunity
