#MSWL True yearning and an intense slow burn like “Heated Rivalry” by Rachel Reid or “Assistant to the Villain” series by Hannah Nicole Maehrer.

Bracing myself for some holiday timed rejections. It's been too quiet. Bah. Humbug. Having a glass half empty kind of day. #amquerying

A new Agent Antics w/Cathie & Vicky has dropped! Share with your friends and enoy! #WritingCommunity open.substack.com/pub/agentant...

Today feels like one of those days where the query trenches might break me. I'm never quitting. But man, is it tempting in this moment. 🥀🖤 #amquerying

If someone ever said "Quiet, piggy" to me, I'd be in prison for murder.

Proof for my future readers (manifesting ✨️). Chapters 57 & 58 broke me, too. 🥺🥀🖤 The Women of the Wile. (The gothic novel I crafted from rage and yearning. A monster romance where she is feral and he is hopeless. Currently querying.❤️‍🔥) #litagents #horrormance #amquerying

The silence in my inbox is defeaning. A telltale heart beating under the floorboards. Patience was never my virtue. #querying

On the Wile, women earn power through bloodshed. Ripley's first kill should prove her worth among her sisters, until her sickle falters over a man who refuses to beg. Bound by dark magic and forbidden desire, they risk awakening a fate worse than death. #QuestPit #YA #H #R #F #Q

Tonight I become a killer. The sickle made for me sits on the table, its virgin blade sharper than my resolve, gleaming with a purpose I still lack. (1st line.) 🥀🖤 #QuestPit #YA #NA #H #F #R #Q

I would rather take up residence in the sewers of Derry, thanks.

On a coast split by wealth and ruin, best friends Carmen and Brigitte spiral into sunlit parties and a strange new drug that turns idyll into terror when one disappears and returns changed—forcing their tight-knit group to confront a conspiracy that weaponizes memory itself. #A #spec #lf #ghostpit

Anybody spy any YA horror #RevPit #10Queries? Trying to scope out mine, but can't find any. It's a YA Horror Romantasy, so maybe it was labeled YA F in the post. I'm not a good detective. 🤷‍♀️ Either way, such helpful tips shared!! Thank you to the editors!

Three days till #RevPit #10Queries feedback! ❤️✨️👀

When you've been raised to slaughter men for power on a matriarchal island, feelings like this aren't just problematic... They're a death sentence. #amquerying #horrormance #horror #romance #fantasy

Tell me you're almost 40 without telling me. I threw my back out sneezing this morning.

But if you’re a little bit mad, and you’re in love with the story that won’t stop beating, then the query trenches aren’t so rough. Depends on who’s holding your hand. I’ve got all my monsters, lovers, and a coven of query-trench besties beside me. #amquerying

My fashion icon. Forever. #DianeKeaton

No. 💔

Mine was one of the queries drawn at random! Yayyy #RevPit #10Queries

Submitted queries this morning to the agents who liked my DVPit post over on 🦋. And in those *I've already consumed way too much caffeine at this ungodly hour* moments, it was confirmed. I am not entirely dead inside. A pulse flickers in the trenches ✨️ ##amquerying

Meet the editors who are giving feedback for this round of #RevPit #10Queries!

My writing buddies or worst distractions. Whatever. Same difference. 🐾❤️

Not posting a moodboard yesterday for DVPit went against my nature as a steadfast Canva time-waster. 🤣 The pitch that earned ✨️3✨️ agent likes yesterday! 🤍 So excited to put together these query submissions. (She types full of apprehension, excitement and self-doubt.) #amquerying #moodboard

On the Wile, women draw power from the blood of sacrificed men. Ripley’s first kill should grant her unstoppable magic, but her sickle falters over a prince she cannot strike, and the desire it sparks may be deadlier than the rituals themselves. 🩸✨❤️‍🔥🌙 #DVPit #H #F #R #YA #NA

I need this on my bookshelf.

How I imagine my books in the query piles. #amquerying

New substack. 🤍 "I toil to make it brilliant, but it’s only a reflection of me, a mirror of how my soul interprets the human heart in conflict with itself. Does that mean others will love it? No. Does my writing even love me? I fear it may be unrequited." #amquerying

🆘️ Friends!! Help me decide which WIP idea to prioritize. I need a passion-project to distract me from the trenches! 1, 2 or 3??? (#litagent feedback extremely welcome. ☺️🤍) #amquerying #wip

New substack. About the characters that haunt us & the hell we put them through. #amquerying

Friday Substack. 🤍 Buried Alive : The Characters We Drag Into the Trenches. open.substack.com/pub/bmfwrite... #amquerying #querytrenches

I was scared by my own book tonight. My husband (who I forgot existed for a minute) asked me something and I actually jumped. ☠️ This has to be some kind of milestone, right?! (Or a warning sign of some sort of query-induced mania, but we are going to stay positive, Ok?) #amquerying

Writing horror is creepily cathartic. #amquerying

I see you. I hear you. I love you. #amquerying

These fulls are beating like a telltale heart. 🫀 #amquerying

For those who hate links. My latest substack. Can any of my #amquerying friends relate??
