@lixirlai Reads with Rachel She's amazing and her activism is incredible

guys who are your favourite booktubers i’m trying to find new ones :3 (underrated channels are appreciated)

@HiddenPowerPod Sinnoh really did have too many HMs tho 😭😭😭 that and walking through mud, mist, and snow 😭😭😭

The most HATED thing about every Pokemon region:

@GaleGalleon Why did I just learn this with you?

I DID NOT KNOW THE POKEMON BERRIES ARE JUST ANAGRAMS OF REAL FRUITS??? Leppa = APPLE Pecha = PEACH Rawst = STRAW(berry) I am completely mindblown

@kcdunfordbooks @SDDonovan I wanna see your oil paints!

@SDDonovan If I somehow knew that for sure, I'd probably switch back to oil painting. It fills that creativity gap for me, but it's much less taxing, and you don't have to convince people to look at it😅

Would you still write if you knew no one would ever read your books? Or give up entirely?

According to Google docs, this is the oldest document I have for Arena of Plighted Souls. Just look at my old baby 😭 Funny enough, this isn't when I wrote chapter 2. The original was written on notepad before I learned of Google docs :) oh empty lane this was my first edit, too

@carolineNB_ Think of it as a reminder of all your hard work! :'D

@PilotingSR Oh absolutely 😅 I can only imagine how it’ll worsen when I actually start the process

I’m still revising and haven’t even written my query but I’m already having query dreams 🫩

@KrystalElkhoury @ZakheleArt This is stunning

I try to keep my page positive, but today, I've shattered. I've known majority of my life that my passions mean nothing to ppl around me but I thought, to this person, someone I love, I and my efforts mattered. But it doesn't. I'm so hurt. I'm alone, and worthless irl to all. :(

Haley is afraid that the connection they built would crumble when he learns of a particular magical gift she has. As you can tell, Diarmuid is unafraid of her powers. He believes in what she stands for & her actions. This art is mine, but Diarmuid is missing XD Men are hard ;-;

I made this for #revpit In life, Diarmuid's choices were always disregarded, and in death, further hardships found his soul. Trusting Haley, a random mortal girl, didn't come easy. Over the course of the trials &her persistent care, he's confident she's worth believing in.

And I've lost updated edits again. Thankfully I've been sending them to google docs simultaneously and this time, lost minor edits but wtf man...>< I have no clue what I lost and what I haven't. I'm so tired.

I was looking for quotes to use for REVpit tomorrow and saw that edits were missing again. I figured it out why I I'm losing everything. Word saves to onedrive, which, is hard to access on mac. Switching to save to documents turns off auto save. I lost everything because of that

@Charlie_Novels Thank you for explaining! These are really cool. Are they for your book? I'm sorry if I haven't seen them if they are <3 How do you do these? I went on canvas and most of the stuff is either paywalled or I can't figure where to get the stock images instead of generated ones.

@PilotingSR Their primary purpose is to show off the atmosphere of the story (and most of the time, the standout traits of a specific character) without words! Though some mood boards also include an impactful quote relating to the book/character in one of the squares 😌👍

I'm sure Google can answer, but I'd love to hear it from all of you. What is a mood board? What's its purpose? I've seen them and I think I have an idea of the concept but I wanna see if I'm right and to have to further expanded upon

@MoBetter289 This helps so much! Thank you!

@PilotingSR You’re using a grid of imagery to capture certain aspects of your manuscript. Visual storytelling. Beyond vibe, you’re showing bits of action, tension, and drama that depict elements of your plot. There should be a color scheme and a literal mood evoked in the photo selections.

Someone recommended making the query about Haley only. Said she is more interesting and relatable. Ironically, I find it the reverse. I think Diarmuid's journey hits harder haha But that feedback shows his conflict isn't well represented in the query & I need to adjust or delete!

@Charlie_Novels Ir's crazy, isn't it? What an embarrassing disconnect. XD

@PilotingSR I feel that on a spiritual level

Tell me why I cried while writing a review a beta reader. ;-; I am an emotional mess XD But their process gave me feelings, and I am not afraid to share them. <3

@BrynneAuthor But if I was to make one, what would my goal be? What am I trying to accomplish when I make one? I'm thinking they're meant to have images that showcase what the overall atmosphere and characters of the book are feeling? Is that close? Lol

@PilotingSR Tbh I just think they’re fun.
