I actually managed to finish my first draft! Now I'm ready to eat too much and accomplish nothing else until December 🦃 ❄️

Nothing like heading into the last chapter of a WIP first draft. Things are all coming together so perfectly! I can't wait until I can share! WHITE LOTUS X FRANKENSTEIN

Finally! A morning that actually feels Autumnal! ✨️🍂🎃🍁✨️

This is the kind of thing I do to distract myself from the excitement of amazing agents who currently have my full manuscripts. How do you distract yourself? #art

Reached peak cottagecore witchy vibes today, saving a drowning toad during a storm ✨️🍂🍄‍🟫🐸🎃🍄🍁✨️

My chronic illness has been flaring up and I simply do not have the spoons for a pitch event. I will not be pitching tomorrow, though I'm pretty excited with the agents who currently have my projects, and I will do my best to support my wonderful author friends! #QuestPit

I received another R&R recently, and I finally figured out how to put it into action! I'm so excited to see if they'll like it when I'm done!!

10 k into my new WIP! And it's not terrible!

I got a rash from berry picking yesterday, but I'm honestly just excited to use plantain from my yard to clear up the itch in true bog witch fashion

Revisions have been completed and sent to the requesting agent, but I'm curious if I should reach out to the other agents with my full... Would they want the updated pages, or is reaching out just annoying?

I was a foolish fool and had way more to do than originally planned... I'm over halfway through revisions, though!!

I ran out of both cream and creamer, so I added ✨️ice cream✨️ to my coffee instead. Work with what you've got, right? 🤣

I'm down to one last edit for my cozy story! Then I'll write some more of my WIP (Frankenstein x White Lotus if it were directed by Jordan Peele) and give it another full read before sending it back!! Think a two week turn around seems suspiciously fast for an R&R?

Tackled the biggest/ most difficult change of my revision, so the rest will go quickly and smoothly, right?

Made my husband bread pudding for breakfast, pizza from scratch for dinner, and gave him a while lot of writing time for father's day. I think I nailed it! Yes, that's pickle pizza 🤣

Are there better vibes than stock simmering on the stove, rain pattering against summer leaves through an open window, and a bit of time to start chapter one of a new project?

I highly recommend trying pickle brined chicken. This was such a delicious dinner my husband made!

Throwing my WIP outline into an excel because it makes the most sense in my brain. Does anyone else do it this way, or am I just a weirdo? Maybe it's both?

I told a friend how I saved a baby turkey today, and all she said was how wild I am for doing it while wearing socks outside.... it was special circumstances!! @reesaguerra.bsky.social

I changed my WIP to my RHPS X Glass Onion X Get Out X White Lotus X Frankenstein idea I know that's a lot of comps, but I promise it will all make sense.

I thought I was set on my Spy vs Spy with dystopian elements WIP, but now that I'm a chapter in I'm wondering if I should go with my macabre, modern Frankenstein retelling... or maybe a third option from my idea folder...

It may look like the eye of Sauron, but it's dang delicious. My children requested a fresh loaf every day 😂

Trying my hand at a sourdough loaded with herbs from the garden, minced garlic, and sharp cheddar cheese. Wish me luck!

Found I've landed in another small maybe pile for another awesome agent I'd love to work with! Fingers crossed one of these turns into a full soon!

I made my first vegan dessert, of course I tweaked the recipe, so I was nervous I'd ruined it. But, everyone loved it so much I ended up making a second mini batch for my kids because it was eaten without a crumb to bring back home! My love language is feeding people ❤️

I tried to let my hubs have the writing reins with his project, but I couldn't help myself but start a new WIP complete with full outline and opening pages. I guess the race is on!

Deep cleaned my kitchen yesterday, which called for a celebratory batch of browned butter sugar cookies ❤️

Why does sending R&Rs feel so much scarier than fulls?

Tell me how I married a man three years younger than me, and yet he's bookmarking his bird watching book to show me what he saw at the feeder and I'm sending him pictures so he doesn't miss anything while he's at work. Am I geriatric now?
