Rona Gofstein - Book Coach, Editor, Author

@GillJames I'm fascinated by the fact that we writers, usually so good at choosing our words, call these rejections when that word is never used by publishers. I've always thought of them as "passes." It's an editor saying, "It's not for me." Nothing more. Onward.

This thread about Book Coaching is so true! Thank you @KJDellAntonia for saying it so eloquently.

@ceciliatan Every. Time.

Hahaha I was like I’ll just do this one other chore that needs doing — changing the cat litter since it’s garbage night — and on the way to doing that I’ve folded two pairs of socks, posted a video to Insta, and listed an item for sale on eBay…? But haven’t done the litter…
