Bethany Joy/Noelle Douglas

Once upon a time a little girl wrote a book & said: "when I grow up, I want to be a novelist." Many years passed. But the dream remained the same. Now the dream has come true. A million thanks to my agent @ssnow_lit_agent and my editor @MARechter ❤️💚❤️💚

Wandering back over here to scream into the wind With my newest book draft finished, I can't help but daydream about its future. Of the day when it can be used for generative AI and pirated. Yes, truly, this is why I write through gruesome chronic pain after working all day

#PopUpPit #agentsguide #romance #poc #LuckyPit Will beauty that lies within equal to external? Jibran thinks so, problem is she doesn't. But he's determined to prove this to her, even if it takes an arrangement. Although she fell first, he's falling harder and faster for her.

Yep.

Happy to announce I’m reopened to queries! Check my #MSWL for what’s on my priority list but sneak peak: give me lots of romcom, steamy romance, psych thrillers, eerie horror, soft to medium fantasy, dark academia & space! 🫶🏻 #WritingCommunity #amquerying #amediting

Last year I was a debut author Now I'm just some lady

A lot has changed since last Christmas Eve Eve when I was crying in the basement wrapping presents alone because my family all had stomach flu This year I'm crying upstairs not wrapping presents because I have stomach flu

Make a reader and a debut author happy this holiday season 🎄❤️💚 #readersoftwitter #readingcommunity #romancebooks

@haleypatricia_ Sometimes I went multiple days without checking my inbox when I needed a break! It's ok to step back and agents will wait for your response 🫶🏻

One of the most common bits of feedback I provide when critiquing a query letter is the following: SELL your story. Don't TELL your story. Instinctually, we want to provide the ins and outs of our story, but that's what the synopsis is for. Your query is an advertisement. 🧵

What I did to promote my debut, The Christmas Crush Like many of us in #WritingCommunity #amwriting I wanted to know what others did to promote their books when it was time to promote my own. Hope this helps and if anyone has other suggestions I'd love to hear them!

@BookTrib @RosewindBooks @IPGbooknews @DorothyDreyer @AlcovePress @penguinrandom @bookouture Thanks for featuring The Christmas Crush!
