It is halfway through day 2 of this month and I’m already losing the plot 😂 someone light a candle and manifest good news for me, I beg #writingcommunity #amquerying

The most chaotic part of the entire book-writing process for “Mark of a Magpie” was the messages, emails, and comments I’d get at strange hours from my alpha and beta readers. Enjoy 😂 #ChaosPit #Q #F #R #amquerying

Question for querying writers! With the world changing as fast as it is, what’s a theme from your book that suddenly became super relevant over night? My book’s about how everyday people deal with political nihilism, finished it right before the new presidency 🥲😂 #writingcommunity #amquerying

Literally how do you function when you have full requests out? The only thing I can think about is the possibility of sudden heartbreaking or life-changing emails popping up when I’m doing the most mundane thing 😂 #amquerying

If I had a nickel for every time the person before me in the full request queue got an offer, I’d have four nickels I’m so confused 😭 did I anger the query gods???? Genuinely baffled #amquerying #writingcommunity

I don't know who needs to hear this today, but you're brave for putting your work out there This stuffs hard, but it'll be worth it 💚 #amquerying

Get yourself a group of querying besties, I promise it makes this hell a little bit easier to endure. In stitches over on our group chat, and I needed these laughs. I have definitely found my weirdos. Their books need to be published ASAP. #amquerying #writingcommunity

Yall, I’m not a podcast girlie, but I listened to the two most recent episodes and everything has started making sense hahahaha Highly highly recommend

If you’re using the words “split personality” in your #QuestPit post, PLEASE stop and do some research into the history of that term. I’ve blocked four people so far

Out here trying to make #QuestPit friends on both apps and apparently I’ve already been friend-speedticketed on the other one 😂

I just had the absolute PLEASURE of editing a manuscript that gives Sailor Song by Gigi Perez, from first line to last. It was incredible. One day this author is going to make big moves in the industry. Saying this now so no one can say I didn’t. Here from day 1 🥹

I love Ryn’s resourcefulness, and it was SO hard to write because that meant I also had to be resourceful with what she had 😂 It was hard, but I’m lowkey pretty proud of how those scenes turned out haha #YouDeservepIt #writingcommunity

Thank you so much everyone for an incredibly wonderful day. It was so lovely to see everyone’s pitches, see old friends and make news ones 💚🫶🏻 Yesterday was a rough rejection day for me, so all the love was so unbelievably appreciated. Love you all and rooting for you 🥹 #P2Ppit #Q #UW #YA #RF #F

Going to repost this because I’m too exhausted to make a third post hahaha Thank you to everyone who interacted, I was so happy to make so many new friends today. You’re all incredible. I did my absolute best to interact with all pitches, and I adored every single one 🥹🫶🏻💚 #BluePit #amquerying

I’m late! But! #BluePitHype Ryn and I both struggle with unhealthy coping mechanisms, but I think she’s much better at quick thinking than I am hahaha. I think we’d be good friends. Seven got my all-or-nothing attitude, but I think I’m more open-minded. 😌 🐦‍⬛ “Mark of a Magpie” 🐦‍⬛ #amquerying

Ryn would be torn between the patchy leather boots she’s had forever, or the bar booth she’s basically claimed as her bed. Seven would tell you it’s his punch blade, but deep down he knows it’s that little book of poems he lost when his home burned. 🐦‍⬛”Mark of a Magpie”🐦‍⬛ #BluePitHype #amquerying

LMAO my partner watched me type this and said “No, Ryn’s strengths are her luck and audacity” 😂 #BluePitHype

This question is so fun!! #BluePitHype Ryn’s greatest strength is her ability to think on her feet, but she refuses to listen to things she doesn’t want to hear, which gets in the way of her strengths. Seven is very adaptable, but his feelings are always all or nothing. 🐦‍⬛ “Mark of a Magpie” 🐦‍⬛

These two gorgeous drawings were done by an early alpha reader turned writing friend 🥹🥰 They’re the first pieces of artwork I’ve ever gotten as a writer and I adore them 🐦‍⬛ Ryn and Seven, from “Mark of a Magpie” (YA romantic fantasy) 🐦‍⬛ #BluePitHype #amquerying (Art creds to @/haileybrynn13 on IG💚)

Hi #BluePitHype !! 🥰🤗 I’m Em, I’m a fiction writer currently based in the northeastern US! I love writing about identity exploration, mental health, justice, and romance in worlds that look a bit like ours. 🐦‍⬛ I’ll be pitching my debut novel “Mark of a Magpie”! (YA romantic fantasy) 🐦‍⬛ #amquerying

I’m new to bluesky, but first thing I wanted to do was share the gorgeous art I got from the incredibly talented @/haileybrynn13 over on IG These are the first pieces of artwork I’ve ever gotten as a writer, and I’ll treasure them forever 🥹🥰 Ryn and Seven, from “Mark of a Magpie”
