@tamarranicole Makes you what would happen if we broke his arm and said “Sorry, no pain medicine for you…but here is some lavender to make you feel more calm.”
Seriously, double middle fingers to this individual.

If you type the title of your current #WIP (work-in-progress) into the GIF search bar, what’s the first GIF that comes up?

I found this to be a very helpful thread. Always wondering what is going through an agents mind when they open my query.

Let's have some fun...
You're going to write under a pen name, BUT the first name has to be the name of the last city you traveled to and the last name will be the color of the top you're wearing right now.
Me: Lexington Gray ( I love it!)
Your turn! Go!

@Maria_Tureaud So relieving when you find lost writing material.

I recently saw a person’s Twitter photo—a selfie taken in a grocery store, adult diapers discreetly in the background—and I can’t help but think “Who stops mid shopping and says…now’s a good time for a selfie.”
No judgement, just thought it was funny

I knew this thread would come in handy. #RevPit hopefuls are discouraged after not being selected. Don’t give up writers. I’m sure the editors would have picked more, but the prize is their free time and we have to respect they’re day job. I for one will be paying for a critique.

The discouragement that can come from not being selected for #Revpit is very real. You may think, “Dang, I thought I had such a strong MS.” You may doubt your ability to catch the eye of an agent when your begin querying. So I was wondering #editors can we make a thread?/

@alina_bacher Questioning yourself happens almost every time you face rejection. But the fact you submitted a COMPLETED manuscript already quantifies your passion.
But this #RevPit was not a rejection, just not chosen. It’s hard, I know. I went Twitter dark and cried. It’s okay. Don’t give up

@danaevyn @Maria_Tureaud Oh dang! I made a cake too. Carrot cake… with bunnies and sprinkles for grass. I don’t expect any celebration so it’s there to make me feel like a winner 🤣

If anyone wants to join The Great #RevPit Bakeoff for the last day of #RevPitWaiting, I'm about to start making my consolation cake! (If it turns into celebration cake then great—but I'm not getting my hopes up on purpose.)
All baked goods welcome 🎂

Okay #RevPit fam. We're coming to the big announcement tomorrow.
I want you to remember:
-This isn't a reflection of you/your worth/your book's worth
-The best part is the community. So keep the friends and stick around (if your MH is up for it)! Keep learning with us!

Friends, let me make a public shout out to our #RevPit editors. They’re awesome! They give to this contest out of pure 💜 for helping writers and for those they can’t give the prize to, they leave nuggets of knowledge. I have thoroughly enjoyed this experience. #RevPitWaiting
