Same!
Genre? Hot right now are Ibi Zoboi, Nnedi Okorafor, Justin Reynolds, Joya Goffney, Kamila Cole, and Tiffany D Jackson.
What a great idea!
It took me waay too long to figure out I could write in something easier on the eyes and change the formatting to the correct standard when I was done.
Other writers and bookish friends, I’ve started writing on Substack (for free)!
Solidarity!
Happy to chat any time.
Fingers crossed on the queries!
Incredible, congratulations!
At least, that’s the plan. I’m about 60k words in on the first draft.
It starts in the 90s and goes forward about 20 years. There’s a main character but I’m tying in her mom for the first part, younger sister in the second, and resolving mc’s marriage conflict during the final section.
I’m working on a family saga.
Fortunately for me, most of them sleep in until noon. I got plenty of early morning writing time. 🌞
Took a little 4 day weekend trip with the family before school starts. Wrote 3500 words on my family saga draft. Feeling energized. #writersky #writingcommunity
Going to spend some time editing. 🖊️
Congratulations! What a huge milestone.
I like option one better. The star thing fits better scooped up in the bottom of the K.
It’s all about knowing when to break the rules!
Don’t want to jinx myself but having a really productive writing week so far. #writersky #writingcommunity
So anxious about maybe getting a response this week from a full and a partial request. But also secretly hoping I don’t get a response because it will be a pass and then I won’t have that hope that maybe this is the one. 😞 🤞🏻 #amquerying #writesky #writingcommunity
Yes. Inspiration always strikes at the worst times!
I did it. I’ve received 100 rejections this year! 🙌🏻 A perk to beginning to #amquerying in January. I also had two requests so an offer this year is possible. #writesky #writingcommunity
Good luck and stay strong!
Congratulations!
Relatable
No, no, that’s Jesus pulling the toddler trick where they go all limp and slide out of your arms to escape.
Now available for preorder. It’s getting real! I might still be #amquerying for fiction but nonfiction is set. 🙌🏻 #writingcommunity
Nope.
Yay!!
