Is there ANY way to block EVERYTHING remotely pro-El Orange-o whose name I refuse to give space to?
Ya gotta love a situation where doing the 'right' thing inconveniences a rich guy, surprises the company involved, and leaves the lowly worker who did that 'right thing' utterly screwed over. 😑
Apparently a hot take: the whole "A wonderful/brilliant/insightful/etc. re-telling of the classic story ________ shown from the POV of a character originally only in Chapters 8-12!" is really, really wearing thin for me. Stoppard's 'R & G are Dead'? Lotta' fun. Now though...
Cover reveal time, folks! 🥳 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗛𝗼𝗼𝗴𝗵𝗹𝘆 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝘐𝘴𝘴𝘶𝘦 3 front cover features stunning artwork by Iranian artist @ATabaraee, known for incorporating Persian culture, history and social issues in her palette. 𝘐𝘴𝘴𝘶𝘦 3 drops later this month. Stay tuned. 💫
A favorite moment at any party: alienate myself by actually being able to answer with dull facts the deeply arcane question people are waxing philosophical about.
Ever have a timeline to create and write a wholly new full length work get lopped in half? If it's not a contract that could be torn up, what do you do? Write new stuff quicker, or dust off old ideas? Asking for myself as this is happening to me, and not even for paid gig! :/
Ever feel like you're day's going along just fine and then in the middle of a bite of lunch your brain is like: "OPEN STUFF TO BE ANXIOUS ABOUT FOLDER NOW!"?? 😖
I love it when you can already tell you can't sleep, but a classic like Universal's 'House of Dracula' is just starting. :)
Tim Curry is the beloved uncle we all keep getting unnecessary Medalerts for. We think something awful has happened, and he looks up annoyed at distraction from being awesome by our concern and goes; "What now, you idiots? Never seen a grown man skydive?"
This should come as news to absolutely no one, but WOW dating in your 30s is just painful.
Why disbelieve someone admitting they've been amongst the low before? For the record: I've been homeless. I've been in jail. I've been a drunk. I've done distasteful things for money. I've dealt with mental illness. I've also seen the world. These are truths, nothing more.
It can be a dangerous thing for someone usually 'in the right' to be completely wrong about something, chiefly because they'll often happily see others harmed before admitting they are incorrect.
Who here thinks the American literary canon could use a new, non-revisionist 'Western' focused on the relationships between humans and nature while dealing with the outfall of WWII's end? 🤔 Also feel free to say ya think the notion stinks! 😆 #writing #writerscommunity
Huh - I've never had FEELINGS when finishing a story before. (Aside from the usual 'oh thank God that's done') How odd! 🤔 #writing #writerslife #writingCommunity
I realized the end of the last novel I read can be summed up with the rhyme scheme from the 'Boondock Saints' prayer and now there's reindeer with Berettas in my head... (Reindeer, of course, being the novel clue here 🤣 )
Always great to see people doubling-down on terribly received statements/ideas/etc shared here rather than just admitting they could have said anything wrong. Classic internet - reminds me of the dial-up days, by golly! I'mma go stare at the sky now and burn my eyes out.

@cp8723 I do take select adult works and I’m a big fan of horses and animals :)
I’m not someone who gets upset easily by query rejections. (I did after receiving 9 in a row lol.) I have agent friends & I’ll love them no less after they reject my manuscript. It’s business & I take it as such. But it does hurt—in fact, it’s cruel—when you form-reject a full.
Does anyone around you use the verb "nuke" to refer to microwaving something? As in, "just nuke it in the microwave for 15 seconds" Is this a midwest thing?
Is it a disappointment if an agent wants your story but requires a major (I mean major) rewrite or is that something you as a writer would be okay with?
I am so goddamn depressed, and I don’t know how to get out of it.
Am reading a bunch of memoir-in-essays. I really like this form of story telling, glimpses into people's lives that are touching, heartbreaking, funny, authentic. Do you have one that you've read recently you've loved? :) #writers #writingcommunity
Finding out a writer you offered on who declined to accept—but wanted me to hold the offer for them in the future—is actively querying the same ms since declining is… ouch. I know I’m a junior agent. You don’t have to sign with me. Just be honest please. Time to log off now 🥲
