Regina is writing LITTLE HELPER

Love the art style of @oxherdboy? Did you know the style, contemporary Gongbi, is one of the oldest continuous art forms in the world? Don’t miss the atmospheric illustrations in THE OXHERD BOY, preorder now: bookshop.org/p/books/the-ox…

@liznealon Sending you love, Liz...

@gila_be @markeology Oh interesting!

@oxherdboy @markeology Midjourney was actually discussing that idea yesterday... where artists could literally license access to their style in an AI. I do not think it will be 2023, but maybe 2024.

@markeology I hadn't thought that far ahead 😅, but that's an interesting and compelling suggestion! But yeah, sometimes when one path closes, we get to find a different way to flow.

@markeology @gila_be Me, too!

@mikerexbooks @gila_be @angelicarjaxon @markeology I agree, also... "generic" is often what most fast-content producers want.

@gila_be @angelicarjaxon @markeology Your sketches are way cuter. The AI looks very generic.

Hallelujah, I can finally start the latest #CormoranStrike novel. 🙌

Want the chance to pick an agent's brain about all things publishing? Literary agent and President of @GreatDogLit is offering 20min AMA sessions at our #GivingTuesday auction! Bidding starts 11/28 and the top 2 bidders will be selected: 32auctions.com/organizations/…

A little something for my @GreatDogLit family... 🐶💛 #puppy #dogsoftwitter #procreate #illustrator

@WriterNatalieN When you can't even see the X to close the tab anymore...

@LeanneStanfield Is first child a mythological creature? I only have one and it's a struggle.

A beta reader for my manuscript commented that she found it 'far-fetched' that a mother of four had a hard time finding a meal they would all happily eat together. Sigh. I'm leaving it in. She's pregnant with #2. She'll learn. #WritingCommunity #AmEditing #AmWriting

@jessicamilnera I think it helps get the attention of an agent or editor who otherwise might not looked twice, as it shows some existing traction with an audience. But if it's still not the right fit, they prob won't take it on anyhow. I would start to query just to get the practice!

Question for writers: I heard that you need 10k followers for agents/publishers to take you seriously. Should I hold off and not query until then? #writingcommunity #writerslife #AuthorsOfTwitter #writersoftwitter #amquerying

@liznealon Right? I was thinking massage, but I'll look into an acupuncturist, too... lots of then here. 😁

18 days/10 illos/19 pages left... Final stretch, but starting to develop shoulder pain hm. Should I be concerned? #amwriting #illustrator #writerscommunity

Keep your chin up, keep your connections, and keep writing! That's what matters, that's what we love to hear about anyway. 💛

To preserve our own peace of mind is not to get swept up in the eddy of confusion. The #tao teaches that the right action always emerges after the dust has settled. Leaving now versus leaving in six months, can it make such a difference that it's worth our anger or anxiety?

Something from the #taoteching that comes to my mind regarding whether to leave Twitter or not is this: "Do you have the patience to wait until your mud settles and the water is clear?" A 🧵
