Jessica K. Foster 📚

@RowanBrightonB I feel this in my bones.

When I say I'm an underwriter, I mean it. There's a 25K-word difference between Draft 1 and Draft 2!

You know you’re dying for this YA dark re-imagining of The Great G💚tsby.

Me with and without glasses. The number of times kids asked me if I was a sub today... I wasn't aware I was Clark Kent up in here. Evergreen reminder to always set the bar low so people are impressed when you try. 😆

I'm freezing under inches of snow here in Michigan, so here's an aesthetic of my first book to remind all us northerners what summer looks like:

Sitting in urgent care waiting room because my husband somehow got a tick bite ALREADY this year and needs antibiotics. Everyone coming in looks like they might have Ebola or at the very least Covid. As a hypochondriac, this is LOVE, people.

I've been trying to journal for the last two hours. I have three sentences. It isn't because I can't think. It's because I'm a mom. 😆

@james_xond Actually, I REALLY love them when cooked right.

Be brutally honest… does anyone actually enjoy eating Brussel Sprouts?

@AuthorTRobare Just sounds like an argument for Kahlua to me ...

@JessicaKFoster It's coffee and tea not alcohol lol

So nervous about my book signing. What if they hate me? What if I get no sales? What if I die? Ugh....😅😅

@otokyo__ Water. Hot water with lemon when you have a cold in the middle of a snowstorm is a complete vibe. Cold water on a hot day after you've run a 5K is also a vibe.

I’ll wait… because there isn’t one.

@HJamesWrites @Profess48893722 Silence OR I can tune anything out BUT music. If it's music, I am distracted. I don't know what level of neurospicy that might be, but let's not label it.

Writers, which do you prefer while writing? 📚📝

@WorkElizab Flawless.

I want your opinion on this change

@mrmikeMTL Like, I hate to be predictable but...

If someone offered you $1,000,000 to listen to one album for 48 hours straight, which album are you choosing?

I just got an IDEA for a book and it is so juicy I want to bite it! Like, will this be the most DRAMATIC book I have written in my life? Is anyone even going to read it? Am I going to let them? Idk but I just pounded out 6,000 words when I was supposed to be revising so...

@LexiHeathermoor They're those really cheesy shorts movies. Basically like soap operas for the modern age. I'm addicted. Don't save me. 😂

@JessicaKFoster Verticals?! Something reading/writing related??

I have discovered verticals. This is like when I found Wattpad. I'm SAT.

@DiranReade70138 @kombo_karl I'm actually okay with my current setup, but thank you for offering!

@JessicaKFoster @kombo_karl Good. I'm also a beta reader and a book editor. Would you love me also to give you feedback on your book?

Had an alpha reader who kept correcting my usage of a word until I wasn't sure whether he was right and I was crazy... Turns out he's British. They call stuff different words over there. We had a laugh today. He was like...I seriously thought you were losing it. Me: Same, same.

@DiranReade70138 @kombo_karl Yes, I have an agent and when I sign with a publishing house, they have in-house editors. :)

@JessicaKFoster @kombo_karl Great 👌👌 Do you also have an editor?

@DiranReade70138 @kombo_karl I do. Some people have many. I enjoy about three at that stage. :)

@JessicaKFoster @kombo_karl Do you also have beta readers?

@Matt_Pinner Team cornbread

What goes well with chili? 🥣 and you can't say crackers
