Hey #RevPit, have logline questions or want some feedback on your logline? Reply here, and I’ll get to as many as I can. Logline explanation: www.jenichappelleeditorial.com/post/essenti... Another explanation: www.threads.com/@reginablack...

considering my book includes an encroaching human-eating forest…there’s a lot of special trees. and cacti. and beetles.

probably DPR Ian’s LIMBO but my playlist for the book is 11 hours, sooo… there’s a lot of options

Okay, #RevPit, let's talk prep for the annual contest 🧵 When you enter, you'll need separate files for: 👉 Complete ms 👉 First 5 pages + Query letter 👉 Synopsis In general, it's better to have a ms that you've revised some and isn't a first/zero draft. 1/6

I’m thrilled to share that I’m now represented by @laneheymont.bsky.social at The Tobias Literary Agency for my gothic horror novel, THE BANSHEE OF CLAN MURTAGH, and future written works. I was blown away by Lane’s enthusiasm and vision for BANSHEE and for my career, and can’t wait for what’s next!

so crazy to think that this time last year I was joining revpit for the first time. it gave me a community of writers that changed my writing (and industry knowledge) for the better. so excited to submit to it this year too! #RevPit

Can I respectfully clarify that the MSWL hastag is for agents/editors to let writers know what they're seeking. It's not intended for writers to pitch their works. With #MSWLDay imminent, it's vital this hashtag stays clean. Thanks. #writingcommunity #writersky #amwriting #authors #writers

This Friday! Who's ready to meet our annual contest #RevPit editors? In the coming weeks, each will host an #AskEditor session where you'll be able to ask about their wishlist, editing process, and more!

In a time of book bannings, AI, and decreased library funding, the best thing you can do to support books is be very, very loud about them. @mollytempleton.com on how we can help the authors we love:
