Fellow writers. What is your favorite sentence from your current WIP? Please share. Mine is “Forever, the month of July will remind her of the two happiest days in her life; the day she got married and the day her husband died. #amquerying #WritingCommunity #amwriting #literary

Need cheering up today. An agent reading my full responded “I love your writing, I love your characters, and love your energy.” Then came the rejection. It hit HARD. Tips to return to the mindset I’ll one day get out of the slush pile? #amquerying #amwriting #writingcommunity

Asking my fellow writers: Have you found it useful when looking for an agent to make a book trailer and put a link in your query letter? Wondering if that helps or hurt. Any advice or opinions welcome #WritingCommmunity #amquerying
