Two more rejections today after sitting in the maybe piles for seven months 🙃 What makes it a tiny bit better is that they were kind and lovely rejections from fantastic agents. Downside though: at this rate I'll have to shelve this MS too. #amquerying #WritingCommunity

Thread of pitch events with a brief explanation and direct links to accounts and rules for these upcoming pitch events! 🧵

Hey, writers! Just want to put this on your radar. There's a rash of new accounts here trying to scam writers by pretending to be book marketers. They are generally not legit. You can recognize them because:

So I have noticed scammers posing as successful authors. If one of these household names slides into your dms, be liberal with the block button. Some follows are legit, but dming strangers? Likely not #writingcommunity #beware
