I'm back with a new MS. Unfortunately, All The Lights has died in the query trenches. It was an interesting journey. I will be querying my new project soon. I am aiming for October. #writingcommunity #amquerying
When you're supposed to be writing, but you stop to make a mood board for your WIP

You know you're in the Query Trenches when...
You get a form rejection first thing in the morning. 🫠

Be careful out here ladies. These men are practically feral.
Something scary happened to me. I was on a walk, and I noticed someone walking behind me. Didn't think much of it until I was about to go back to my apt and realized he followed me to my door. He was filming me. I ran past him and he ran down the back stairway apologizing.
I decided to lock in on my WIP. I started on Tuesday at just over 5k words. Today I'm just over 16k. Maybe I'll be done with draft 1 by the end of the month. #amwriting

THE WAY WE USED TO BE is a rom-com where a fashion designer reluctantly enlists the help of her ex childhood best friend.

I thought going back into the query trenches would negatively impact my anxiety. But I find that I am not as anxious this time around.

I am back researching so I can complete a WIP I paused months ago. My plan is to finish it within the next few month so I can start querying it.

I just received the nicest pass on a full. It hurts, but I still have hope.

i can’t use em dashes because apparently that’s an ai tell.
i can’t use questions because that’s an ai tell.
i can’t use an oxford comma because that’s an ai tell.
i can’t structure thoughts too neatly because that’s an ai tell.
at what point are writers allowed to just… write naturally again 😭
Morning moment of panic, being back in the trenches fearing my manuscript is dead. I love this story too much to let it go.
