This article gave me the push I needed this morning! "If you find yourself stalling on an action—any action—because you’re waiting for someone to tell you it’s okay, I see you." "It’s sneaky, this propensity to outsource permission." #writingcommunity #writesky www.tiffanyhawk.com/blog/permiss...

Thank you so much for this #10Queries feedback! It was my first time participating in #Revpit and I was ecstatic just to receive a mention 🥹 💙

So challenging to pick just ONE favorite quote, but I think this depicts the vibe 😊 I hope! 🤞 #RevPitWaiting #amquerying #YAlit

Charlie gains power through popularity and fear. He comes from a prominent lobstering family whose name is respected in town. However, he uses this to manipulate his friends, coercing them into all sorts of delinquency. #writinglifemonthly #writingcommunity #WritingPrompts

Moodboard for the YA contemporary novel I'm querying titled OVER THE LINE. It has... 🧡 found family 💪 fierce friendships 💥 sabotage & crime 💔 break-ups/make-ups 😣 teen angst 🙅‍♂️ shattering assumptions #RevPitWaiting #amquerying #writingcommunity #YAlit

Just curious, what do you listen to while you're writing? Some people like instrumental playlists or movie scores, others like tunes with lyrics or swear by the classics. What's your thing? 🎶 💃 #writingcommunity #writesky #writerlife

Snippet of my MC from the YA contemporary novel I'm querying! Like many teens, she is full of juxtapositions & I love it! Bold/Hesitant. Trusting/Suspicious. Easygoing/Anxious. #RevPitWaiting #YAlit #amquerying

#WIPSnips #WSPitQ #writingcommunity #amquerying

Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel. I read it in college, taught it for a number of years, & just fell in love with it. It’s haunting and beautiful 10/10 #writingcommunity #booksky

What are your querying strategies to avoid burnout/feeling discouraged? I’ve heard authors say they pick one day a week to query or they do it in small batches 🤷🏼‍♀️ What do you think? #writingcommunity #amquerying #yalit #writers

My #RevPit book is a piece of my soul! I'm sure most people say that 😄 It is set in a rural close-knit community with strict traditions & norms. But one mysterious family breaks through the judgement and defies assumptions. It has forbidden love, a double-cross, & found family. #RevPitWaiting #YAlit
