I had a really awesome interaction with an #agent that has my full, sliding into my DMs 👀 I have no chill. It’s not in my branding 😅 so I’m stoked, today is a good day 🥰🤩🥳 Manifesting some ✨vague✨ news 🤞🏽🤞🏽
@carlajeanconti Thank you so much for the kind words!
@carlajeanconti @WildBluePress Congratulations!! So glad to be part of your publishing journey 🙌👏😊
@carlajeanconti @WildBluePress Congratulations! Well deserved😊
I #writersoftwitter my name is Ria! I write YA Fantasy and my debut coming out 2025 is a high fantasy featuring a plus size heroine. I am very passionate about the writing stories I didn’t have as a teen. Where disabled or bigger characters are the leads. I also love to cosplay!
can we bring back #WritersOfTwitter again? i would love to meet some new writer friends (& hype up the ones i’m lucky to know already) so go ahead and (re)introduce yourself! 👀💕
Today marks 6 weeks of recovery following my tumor removal/hysterectomy, and the pathology results are back: NO CANCER 😃🥲 I’m anxious to get back to a fitness routine, and I’ll post updates on my journey through physical rehab. The thing was big and heavy, and it feels good to…
I am absolutely beside myself that I have an agent. BUT! Can you believe there's a but? I miss connecting with my #amquerying friends! Who wants to share an update with me? I spent 9 months querying & mentally I am still there. Share so I can cheer you on! ROOTING FOR YOU! ✨
Query Stats 2018- 1st query sent and rejected 2019-1/1 rejected 2020- 14/14 rejected 2021- 12/12 rejected 2022- 48/48 rejected 2023-76 queries sent, 1 offer of representation! 5 years, 4 different PB manuscripts, 151 rejections total. It only takes one yes💜
Hi, I'm Marc. I write action-packed YA fantasy and scifi often featuring either giant monsters or people acting like monsters. My debut, Sky's End, launched two weeks ago.
can we bring back #WritersOfTwitter again? i would love to meet some new writer friends (& hype up the ones i’m lucky to know already) so go ahead and (re)introduce yourself! 👀💕
I just found out the bookstore who stocked 7 copies of my apple orchard romance earlier this month, Crimson Crisp, has already sold out and when they recommended my books to a reader, they'd actually already heard of me! This is the coolest feeling ❤️
I came to the UK as an Afghan refugee with no English. Education was - and still is - not an option for girls in Afghanistan. I am proud to say I passed my PhD @ucl with no corrections.🥳
Rejection number 25 stings a little. I just want someone to tell me what it is that puts them off of my book. Sincerely, An over it author #amquerying #WritingCommunity
Did I just send a query with "Dear [Agent]" as the greeting? Yes, yes I did. Maybe I'm not cut out for querying. Or interacting with others in general. 😂😂😅 #WritingCommunity
I'm delighted to share the news that I am now represented by @thisisninaleon of @perez_literary! Nina's vision and passion for my work is wondrous! I can't wait to work with her and join the PLE team! Please enjoy this GIF. Perfect representation of the love interest.😉
Well #amquerying fam, I received this very nice and specific rejection from my ✨dream agent✨one of the biggest in the country. Never wanted to email someone back so bad. She struggles the whole book and barely can tap the power by the end. Need to clear that up in the query.
Congratulations to the nominees for the Robert L. Fish Memorial Award. #Edgars2024
