Life can be brutal. The worst things can hit right when the best are about to happen. My incredible mum just died at 84. She was sharp, funny, and fierce to the end. Tmrw, something goes live for me. She knew all about it & was so proud: "Clever girl" she said. Big news coming 👀
English
More hockey to be unreasonably excited about! Let's go ladies. And wow, how beautiful is this incredible city?

@sarahmadmum Querying is brutal. Just keep going and going! My stats look awful but it only takes one yes and then none of the sad red faces matter any more!

Woke up this morning with another rejection, this one from one of my top ten agents, having a bit of a wobble but I’m sure I will shake it off and carry on. The trenches are a rollercoaster of emotions, but having a community that understands is priceless. 🥰
English
@R_R_Hutchinson That puts you at boss-level status. Amazing job.
English
I resisted eating any of the cheese I was grating ahead of putting it on dinner, for the first time ever. Please clap.
English
@WolfRavenFoxSea Urghh. Sorry to hear that but know that it's just another step towards the dream. Sit with it. Treat yourself to something nice. And then keep on going.
English
Full request submission rejection today from one of my dream agents. She was really really nice. Just a subjective thing.
So. It’s okay. I’m fine. Totally fine.
This is just…character building.

@fairiegnostic You should create a guide with your synopsis wisdom!

Unpopular Opinion time:
I enjoyed writing my book’s synopsis.
English
@kcharper613 Haha. That's the opening of a great horror!
English
The ice cream truck playing it’s creepy music while it drives through my pitch dark neighbourhood isn’t creepy AT ALLLLLL

@Russell99695573 Congratulations! ✨

Today I wish my beautiful wife of 20 years, Happy Anniversary! It’s been a fantastic journey so far and I can’t wait for the next 20! ❤️
English
@HarrowingDell I think IG seems to be the main go to for book promotion now so guess I need to bite the bullet and make myself embrace sharing photos🙈I manage a post and then don't open it again for two weeks because I hate it. Must do better.
English
I’m thinking of going all in on TikTok and maybe insta... I don’t seem to be getting much traction at all here these days. Already deleted Facebook. Where are the kids social media-ing these days?? I’ve got books to sell! lol.
English
@garnett_nicole Happy times and happy writing!
English
@Megburywrites Things can change in a heartbeat! It's crazy. Congrats on another full. Manifesting all the good vibes for you. ✨
English
Don’t underestimate how fast things change in the trenches folks! From this pass on Monday to another full request today. You never what’s around the corner 🩷

Received the most encouraging rejection on a full and I just have to share it here because my IRL friends don’t fully understand how much sentiments like these mean. I’m happy and I’m hopeful 🥹🥰 (Thank you to this agent, if you ever see this)
English
@gothicsreview Hahahaha. Oh my goodness. I noticed recently that I downloaded my MS and the comments weren't there, but they were hidden. Caught it before hitting send.
English
remember when i didn't know that if you download a document from google docs, it will include all your comments. so i was sending agents my full manuscript w comments meant only for me. i only learned this on the official call w my agent. i had been querying for So Long
English
@MelJRey Definitely. There was a great reddit thread about how sales for debuts rarely start flying until long after the publication date thanks to word of mouth etc, but by then, even the publishers who were marketing have moved on and are on the next new book. The timing's all off.
English
@sophenwrites I'm seeing a number of debut authors trying to get to grips with marketing their books alongside everything else. It seems not all books are equal in terms of what they get to give the book a good launch on socials.
English
So to get a deal, querying authors have to have:
- a hot premise
- a social media platform (or have had a hit success in self pub)
- to be able to market themselves well
- to be the whole package
What do you think?
English
@DelandJessica Vague things are marvelous! Good luck ✨
English
Not to alarm anyone, but VAGUE THINGS are officially happening over here 👀👀👀😱
But I'm not going to say anything else in case I jinx it again 😬

@talishammas So very true. The number of times I've been like, it's fine, it's an amazing idea, of course I'll remember it...
English
don’t trust your 2 a.m. brain when it swears you’ll remember that brilliant book idea. you won't. write that shit down.
English
People are always asking me how I write so fast. Honestly, I have no idea. I just know I love it and that I'm always happiest when entirely lost in the heads of my silly characters. #amwriting #writingcommunity

@MarciMarquez06 @tiannakellyread Congratulations! ✨
