Here is the #agentsguide to my adult contemporary romance! Querying now 💛

@Dear_Rhian I feel like this 😆

What it feels like every time I send a query to an agent #WritingCommunity

Here is the #agentsguide to my adult contemporary romance! Querying now 💛

@Virginia_Brasch Yassssss 😆😆😆

@Haley_Writes_ HAHAHAHA Pantone said it was in! lol

What is a piece of evidence that might be mistakenly tracked or taken from a murder scene that is large enough to be seen with the naked eye? It's a character finding it, not a forensics team.

My favorite takeaway of this weekend was how eager authors are to learn. The more you listen, learn and apply, the more success you’ll see.

THIS COVER

Sent this book to my agent today btw

Anyway it's MANIFESTING MONDAY where we hope hard work and opportunity collide in the perfect serendipity spiral via the Shrek Manifesting circle

@ckwritesbooks Don't tease me with a good time.

I need a night to sit & talk about books with people that understand craft. Like someone I can geek out over verbs & showing vs telling and breaking rules. I want to dive into books and read out sentences and squeal because they’re THAT brilliant. With cheese & wine of course.

My second Native romcom comes out July 22, 2024 with Berkley. here is the gorgeous cover illustrated by the incomparable @holoskeart Loved writing my take on a cowboy romance, reclaiming the genre that has been historically racist & perpetuated harmful stereotypes for decades.

@Virginia_Brasch OMG THIS SOUNDS AMAZING

Congrats Linny!!!

@haleypauthor That’s what I’m saying! 😂 I’m on your side

@Haley_Writes_ Yeah not to be rude lol but I've given them plenty of chances and it never goes well plus I'm barley attracted to them as it is haha.

I think I might stop looking for an agent and start looking for a coven

@haleypauthor Keep writing. Go read stories from other authors who had "failure" before success. Ask people to remind you this all should be fun when you forget that thought and wanna give up and know that every time you write you are growing. You've got this!

@haleypauthor The only thing you can control is writing. My CP and I remind ourselves that this is suppose to be fun. OFTEN Which I know sounds like a "duh" but for me it truly helps me reframe and refocus. Yes we wan to get published but we write because we enjoy it

@cgossagent WOW

I feel like this won’t reach who it needs to… but don’t search for my home address to put in a query letter. Not necessary.

I love all the official cardigans, but I’m sorry, the surprise song piano cardigan I knitted myself is still my favorite 🤭
