My silly working shorthand...
Started a new WIP this week, which is exciting and exhausting. Here's the last dialogue exchange I wrote!
“Oh, boy. Five extra dollars to spend on books,” she deadpanned.
Finnigan Begin Again cleared his throat. “We just got in a bunch of Brandon Sanderson. Those go fast.”

The great #10queries feedback I got is the result of lots of hard work and revision over the last year. Here are my other query critiques from March. Since then I completely wrote my whole book and rewrote my query multiple times. Keep going and thank you for your help, @reviseresub.bsky.social!

I hoped this was mine, and it was. 🥲 After 26 form rejections, I was losing confidence in my query package, but my gut was telling me I just haven't put it in front of the right person yet. THANK YOU @mariatureaud.bsky.social for confirming that hope! #10queries #revpit
Q7: This query is PERFECT. Everything is clear, the stakes are on point for the genre, the metadata is flawless. If you entered b/c this query isn’t getting requests, I’m genuinely worried about the state of the trenches #RevPit #10Queries

Beta reading a story that references Carmen and immediately ended up down a rabbit hole of Carmen programs on YouTube. Can’t decide if I’m more obsessed with Virtue/Moir or Katarina Witt.
