The #querytrenches are really getting to me. Have some new books to read hopefully they are better comps, once I read them im re-evaluating my pitch materials #writingproblems

i’m not going to be lectured about political violence by people whose politics is violence

Fixed the art for my mock up cover (going for traditional publishing so this is really just for me) ##writingcommunity

Somehow no news is worst the rejections. #querytrenches #writing

Finally moved all my writing off of Gdocs and into #Scrivener (there was a lot, I've been procrastinating) #writing

I swear after how much my characters did this for my current WIP I am a little gun-shy about starting my next project. #writingcommunity

So many choices for today's #WIPSnips, very fun! #writing #writingcommunity

Today's #WIPSnips is from deeper in my manuscript, Clara is really going through it! #writing

It was tough to pick for today's #WIPSnips my manuscript might only have had 8 uses of 'nightmare', but they were juicy! #Writer #writingcommunity

This was truly a battle with my current manuscript #writing

Wasn't sure if i would even have today's #WIPSnips in my manuscript, turns out there was 5 instances. #writer #writingcommunity

I do love #WIPSnips and 'point' is such a good word as it can really do so many different things! #Writer

Getting a rejection for my Sapphic Fantasy novel during Pride feels especially mean!! #querytrenches

Happy Pride Month 2025 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Be gay do crow stuff #pridemonth #pridecrows

Finally starting #SunriseontheReaping (yes I'm behind) and I'm not ready. The story is written, I know this ends. My heart is breaking already. 😭 #sotr #thehungergames #booklover

Checking if literary agents have opened their submissions feels, just a smidge, like stalking. #querytrenches #writingcommunity

First (form) rejection. 24 hours after submission (seems oddly quick from what I have been told 🤷‍♀️). ##querytrenches #writing

One of the form while i was Querying ask for my favorite line from my #WIP and it made me want to share it. #writing #writer "One can mean to deceive while speaking only true words.” She leans in close and whispers, “And I have seen humans be truly honest as lies drip from their lips."

First round of queries is out in the wild(es)!! Now the waiting game begins 😬

Done! ;) Even my Horoscope knows what's up! #Writer #horoscope #writing

Made a spreadsheet to keep track of queries. Feels a little extra atm but I'm sure it will save me later.

Drew up a cover for my #WIP mostly just for my personal copy when I finally print it. Have to celebrate the small wins! I wrote a whole 90 000 word book! ##writing

Query Letter revised, Two page synopsis done (down from 4 pages!😅) There isn't much more I can do to procrastinate is there... #writing #querying

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made. -FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.

Big edit done!! My manuscript is just over 90 000 words, Fantasy/LQBTQ (maybe romantasy?) And once i get a query letter and synopsis written I shall enter the submission trenches! #writing #writer #novel

Didn't have 'annoy' but had both annoyance and annoyed in my current #WIP for todays #WIPSnips

I was very excited for this #WIPSnips as there are a couple different times rings show up in my current #WIP i think this was the best instance though! #writing #writer #writingcommunity

#WIPSnips now that i have gotten through a big edit of this #WIP i can share little bits of it! #writing #Writer
