@witchkingreads I felt the same way. Unfortunately I only made it about 50% before I just threw in the towel. I googled the plot just for some closure 🤷 but probably not returning to the second series

I realize I’m setting a match to flame but it needs to be said, this is one of the most disappointing books I’ve ever read. If you loved it, I’m so happy for you. I wish that were me, but wow… I did not.

@AuthorGFAllen My explanations are always bad. 😅

Describe your book badly. 📚

@realmattfalcon I’ve collected a playlist of specific songs that trigger my imagination. Bunch of random things

What do you listen to while writing? #WritingCommunity

I’ve had two kids now tell me they want to grow up and be an author like me 😁 must be doing something right 😏

Am I the only one who writes more when I don’t do NaNoWriMo? 😅

@Siennafrst Yes this right here! My characters are much better writers 😂

@authordankenner I always say they tell better stories than me so I don’t do it lol

As an extreme pantser, stories come to me already formed bits at a time. Sometimes, I just *know* the new character’s name. MCs pop into my head, say this, do that, caused a butterfly effect, and xyz happens. I only get to describe what happens with words. Who gets this?

@AuthorLuluAlba I wish you success! I never did the query thing but it sounds like a lot every time I talk to someone about it 😳 keep it up

I keep seeing people talk about their query stats and I’m just sitting here with my 15 rejections, 0 partials/fulls, and 0 offers of rep. Patience is making me wanna rip my hair out 😬🥰 #amquerying

@RoboftheHayes You’d never have to pay to be on my podcast The Casual Author 😃

I've just been contacted by someone who wants me to pay them to interview me for their podcast... Fuck no!!!

It would be amazing if Far Removed could get into this year's Indie Ink Awards. It had only just released last year and few knew about it. Nominations for the cover art would be a dream come true (I am the author and artist). There's also the audiobook narration category. 🔗⬇️

@luke_tarzian I’m a sucker for maps 😍 so cool

HOUSE OF MUIR map.

@lhallwriter All the good vibes 👍

An excellent start to the week! Thank you kind reader 👍

@BenGalley That looks epic 😳

Can't believe the saga of Emaneska comes to an end in less than a month... 😶 Cover reveal and preorder link coming soon!

@L_R_Schulz That’s straight 🔥 congrats!

Nearly 3,000 downloads in two days! 🥳 In case you hadn’t heard, Soul Cage is currently FREE on Amazon 🤘🏻

2 weeks left of the Kickstarter campaign for my veteran’s healing story told in a cozy fantasy setting! 📚🪴 And we just hit another stretch goal to make the Deluxe Edition of Guard in the Garden even more beautiful! 🤩 Find the Kickstarter in my bio. RTs appreciated. 🤙

@wendyparciak If you focus on your love for the craft and remember that rejections mean they weren’t the right fit for YOUR book then it helps 😁 I opted to self publish straight out but many of my podcast interviewees has said the above

Everyone says to query 100 times before giving up ... but really? How do you keep your hopes up? I find myself moving on to another project after about 25 queries. #WritingCommunity #amquerying

@klhicks912 What method? 😂

Do you have a method to your madness when it comes to writing?

Had a blast talking to @Allen_Drysdale about how subtle shifts in her author strategy helped her land the right publisher for her! Listen to Episode 140 of The Casual author at thecasualauthor.com or on YT at youtube.com/watch?v=wLY11z…

@GeauxReadBooks This is amazing thank you 👍

Check out my goodreads review of Dragon Blooded by @authordankenner This is a middle-grade clean portal fantasy that feels like Dungeons and Dragons meets Percy Jackson. (Review in comments.)

@Stat_Mo1 Same thing happened to all my books on the same day 🤷 some people are just having a bad day I guess

Not really the post I wanted to make today. I was hoping it was something wonky with GR, but seems I’ve finally collected a one-star. No context, and leading up to the book’s launch it’s a bit of a downer. But we move. To everyone else giving me and the my series a chance, ty!
