How I feel when my husband (nearsighted) he asks me (farsighted) to read a road sign:

Anyone else in the #WritingCommunity go on such deep revision streaks that your friends text you to make sure you’re alive and when you reemerge you keep calling acquaintances by your main characters’ names? Because I sorta love doing that 😂
To people feeling bummed about #RevPit, you’ve still gained amazing friends in the industry! I didn’t win last year, but I took @jenichappelle up on her revpit deal and it was literally the best thing I’ve ever done for my writing career!! She’s amazing!!!!! Invest in yourself!…
🌻I’ve been wondering the best way to say this for a month. 🌻I realized my personality was never one to beat around the bush. 🌻I’m self publishing. 🌻Stay tuned. 🌻It’s gonna be a wild ride. 🌻No longer #amquerying 🌻Make 🌻 Your 🌻 Own 🌻 Sun🌻
Mastering your novel's pacing is crucial for keeping readers engaged from beginning to end. But striking the right balance between too slow & too fast can be challenging. Here are 5 actionable tips to help you perfect your novel's pace & captivate readers till the end (🧵):
New light from totality with my cannon rebel. Unedited photo. So thankful the thick cloud cover lifted for the full two minutes of totality. I've never experienced anything so beautiful. So grateful to be alive. #Eclipse2024 #EclipseSolar2024
Sometimes it feels like the world has all gone mad. I like to explore ideas, varied perspectives, historical context, all with calm intellectual humility. But people online want me to "pick a side" and to be outraged. Nah. I'll keep doing my thing. You do you. Love you all ❤
Most people who do evil believe they are doing good. So for everyone here who is absolutely certain that you are on the side of good should perhaps step back and consider the possibility that you are wrong. This is difficult, but necessary.
I haven’t been paying attention and I’m so excited to see #IWSGpit is back! I made so many friends last year ❤️. I may throw some pitches together but mostly I’m here to support fellow writers!! I’ll browse and rt what looks cool, but lmk if you want me to look for you!
My knee is bothering me today so I decided not to go to Jiu Jitsu to rest it. Well, I just finished cleaning my house from top to bottom. Now I think I’ll weed my garden and rake. Maybe rearrange the furniture and clean out my garage. 🥴 Why am I like this?
I was so delighted by the number of people who took up my offer! It feels like such a tumultuous time for the #WritingCommunity, but these events always blossom with new friendships! So thank you for trusting me with your work and I wish you all the best in #RevPit!!! I’m…

You know that old saying "always a bridesmaid, never a bride?" I feel like that relates to publishing, lol. Hope you all hydrated this week, and remember...every word you wrote is awesome, and if you didn't write, you're still a writer #writingcommunity

FYI because there’s so many conspiracy theories about the Tucker podcast on YouTube; it was accidentally released at 12am instead of 12pm. Jamie made it temporarily private until the normally scheduled release time 12 hours later.
I didn't want to cause a fuss during my iron infusion so instead of saying "hey, I don't feel so good" I passed out entirely. A firm lesson in self-advocacy, particularly in medicine. Always, always tell the nurse 🤦♀️
I will never get over seeing my book in the wild.
Another look inside the PR Box for The Other Side of the Mirror by @danaevyn 👑 🖤 Everything about this PR Box is wonderful! I love the rose compact mirror so much! There's roses on the mirror in the story and it pertains to a certain scar that remains relevant throughout 🥀
Get activism & political bias out of tech companies. Focus on building amazing products that make the world a better place.
Do you ever sit down to write, & some small detail in your draft sends you down a research rabbit hole? Then, the next thing you know, you’ve spent hours Googling a character’s name origins instead of actually writing. If you can relate, here’s a tip that might help:
--surprise readers with it because they wouldn’t want to be surprised by it.” That blew my mind. She is so right.
Just a reminder that book you're obsessed with writing & in love with even though everyone (agents/publishers) is telling you it's not "marketable" IS WORTH WRITING. Write it. 👏
being an author is simultaneously believing your book is genuinely quite good and full of potential and also quite possibly garbage
Getting ready to send out a full MS. This is the first full request for this book. I do have 3 partials out in the world. Hope is a beautiful thing.
'Can you get me a blanket, please? It's freezing in here.' Her voice echoed within the empty room as she shivered under the white sheet. I swallowed, placing my headphones back on. After five years of working at the morgue, I'd learnt to never answer them back. #vsshorror
Before reentering the #amquerying trenches, I got a new group of beta readers. One of them told me she sat down expecting to only read a little because she was exhausted but ended up reading through a third of the book until she couldn't stay awake anymore. My heart is full✨💜✨
What does it say about me that my latest book is completely unmarketable and unpublishable, yet I'm so in love with it that I can't keep myself from working on it and continuing to polish it, day after day? This doomed love is a love like no other 🥲🥲
Who just got their second short story accepted in a magazine? This person here! #WritingCommmunity or is it #WritingCommunity ?
I know there isn’t a pitch event right now but I can’t wait for the next one because every time those mood boards and y’all’s ability to pitch in a few sentences and bullet points floors me! I know I’ll find new faves! #WritingCommunity #amquerying
Given the relentless attacks on free speech, I am going to fund a national signature campaign in support of the First Amendment
3. You have more control over the process. Especially in self-publishing, there's no one messing with your vision of your art. I'd argue that agents' input is invaluable, but not everyone agrees with me (and not all agents are created equal). No agent = more control. 8/?
I hear some of my family will be endorsing President Biden today. I am pleased they are politically active — it’s a family tradition. We are divided in our opinions but united in our love for each other. I hold this as a possibility for America too. Can we disagree without…
Now I'm back from the States, it's time for the annual-ish Deep Spring Clean. This year featuring a toddler. Wish me luck.
