Submission update: -I’ve received 455 subs this year so far. -I have 119 left to review. -With the exception of a handful I want to read in full, I am caught up through July. -I batch read & then batch respond, so I have ~50 un-fun emails I need to send.

I’m also expecting 11 more revisions from my authors this year, so my priority will be those. I’m trying to be as on top of things as possible, but protecting my free time is a priority & I only have so many hours in a day. I appreciate everyone’s understanding & patience!

I regret to inform y'all this Taylor Swift book is not going to shift anything in publishing. Even if the book hits the NYT list, which I think is highly unlikely since it's being sold exclusively from Target and is more pictures than it is words, that's not going to scare execs.

My heart goes out those who are sad to see summer end, but giiiiiiirl my seasonal depression is LIFTING! My level of misery drops with each drop in temp! My happiness grows with the number of layers I have to wear! I gladly wave goodbye to the sun, who is nothing but mean to me!

"You are Latina enough," I whisper to myself, running my hands along every Goya can in the grocery store.

Fun fact: Whenever I make a spreadsheet of my titles, I always color the fall books purple specifically because of this scene.

Four years later & a classmate I never spoke to before has messaged me saying he remembered my comment & “put together” a book about his kid teething and wants to know how to get it published. (This is the second person to do this, btw.)
True power is being invited to your 10 year high school reunion page, seeing a “where are you now” thread where everyone is married with kids, and commenting: “I don’t have kids but I do control what yours read.”

My biggest critique of #TTPD is that “I Look in People’s Windows” is too damn short. GIVE ME A TEN MINUTE VERSION
