The one thing I love about editing is catching all my hilarious typos. Today's amazing example.

Let's Streisand Effect this report!

✨🌟✨TODAY'S THE DAY!✨🌟✨ And I want to take a moment to highlight and thank some of the wonderful ARC readers who have done me the honor of writing thorough and thoughtful reviews. Starting with an excellent write-up from the talented @barrows.itch.io who has been a HUGE support. More below! 🧵

Without a doubt Izzy and Julie. Izzy's a planner/researcher. She knows how to find answers, will know what to do, and will do it really well. Julie is a boss when it comes to networking and buzz. She'll be able to get people talking about it.⬇️ #AwesomeCharacters #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

Everywhere! I've found ideas for stories playing guitar, watching documentaries, going for walks, talking to my wife, talking to people on bluesky etc... But when it comes to the plots/events in the story, that's me and a lot of daydreaming & a lot of trial-and-error planning #SummerOfStories

The First Lesbian Book Club asks "What happens if Ann Bannon got fed up with industry publishing standards of the time, got her friends together, and started vandalizing books to give them happy endings?" #BluePit #W #OV #LBGT #WF #R #FLBC #SapphicWriters #Writingcommunity

WISHING YOU KNEW is a wlw fiction set in Toronto. It's for readers who want a gayer Evelyn Hugo (Taylor Jenkins Reid), the happier endings of Ann McMan (Jericho, Switch) with the angst of Jen Lyon (The Senator’s Wife) #BluePit #W #OV #LBGT #WF #R #Shaqueline #SapphicWriters #Writingcommunity

After their band and friendship fall apart, Julie and Izzy go their separate ways—until a return home reveals their feelings never actually went away, but will they be able to say all that remains unsaid for a second chance at love? #BluePit #W #OV #LBGT #WF #R

This WIP of mine is actually turning one year old today (after approximately 13 months of pregnancy--I mean the idea marinating in my head). It's what happens when you toy around with Slavic gods, real world history (and present), and add lesbians. A lot of lesbians. #W #NA #F #📖 #BluePit

The Murder of Priscilla Faye is still in draft one, but one I'd love to bring to completion. An unreliable narrator, messy bisexuals, death, and suspicion, with glitter to cover it all up. True crime is a business much murkier than the chlorinated waters of a Malibu pool. #W #A #M #LGBT #📖 #BluePit

The Hand You're Dealt is a heist novel set in an alternative, steampunk version of Sheffield, England, circa 1899. Centered around a bunch of queer con artists and other outcasts, it's a story of revenge and setting wrongs right. #Q #SP #LGBT #NA #📖 #BluePit

Lila's had it. She has no future in today's world where nobody can afford anything and she can't get a job. So, she leaves our world for a magical one, and has to make a choice to go to 1 of 5 Magic Academies. The catch: don't get caught as human or she'll be sent back home. #BluePit #F #W #A

The Touranimal: 10 games, 10 teams, 100 players. A great sporting event showcasing the gift the gods gave humanity: the ability to transform into animals. But the games are rigged, a system where the wealthy class nobles always win, and the working class fight for last place. #BluePit #W #F #YA

Hey #BluePit I have no idea how to do this right so I’m just gonna try my best. Thawing the Line, my debut novel available now. linktr.ee/Wolfsblood

A new-age priest and an atheist adrenaline-junkie walk into a bar... ... to follow a lead on their latest paranormal investigation. People are drowning in London far from water. Is it a medical epidemic, or does the Thames itself have a score to settle? #BluePit #📖 #A #PN #W

I'm editing WIP 1 with Julie and Izzy so... #AwesomeCharacters

I'm not particularly nice to Izzy for a while. I'd argue I'm also not always kind to Shannon either. Writing for these two characters has, at times, led to some tears that resulted in me googling "is it normal for authors to cry because of something they're writing" (it is) #SummerOfStories

#SummerOfStories day 12 Izzy beats the clock, sort of literally. She really hated that thing. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #WritingPrompt #QueerWriters #Sapphic

The winner of this award is likely to win in both a physical fight & a verbal fight. In fact, she got into a fight & won to help her best friend / LI during a difficult time. Her enthusiasm will always help her win an argument. Congrats, Julie 🥇 you are most likely to win a fight #AwesomeCharacters

From WIP 1 Today is an Izzy day when it comes to snips, it seems. #WIPSnips #QueerWriters #WriteSky #WritingPrompts #sapphicwriters #ATWRU #SapphicWriters

This was such a great book! 100% recommend by me, random internet person with impeccable taste in books.

Looking forward to this!!! Thanks for setting it up, Ellie! #SumLuv

Julie & Izzy are controlling the playlist, and fighting with Jackie about it (different generations, eh). Izzy would be the first one to start dancing while Julie is chatting up everyone. She would talk Jackie's ear off about music and they'd plan a collaboration together 🧵 (1/5) #AwesomeCharacters

Generally, I want to find a balance between these two. I want enough to bring me into the setting, but enough to let my imagination fly too. Except when characters are involved. I want to imagine them myself based on personality. Give me a few things, then let me free to decide #PretendPanel

Depends on what I'm describing & whether it's relevant to the plot. Describing Julie's outfit because it's undoing Izzy spectacularly is relevant to plot/character. Describing a shed was necessary for plot/character dev. Describing where Izzy's coffee table and couch are isn't. (1/3) #PretendPanel
