It’s amazing what little things captures the imagination & takes you on an adventurous journey, living vicariously through a character conjured by the very same magical #Writing process.
Be careful when placing a word on an empty page. Who knows where it might take you too…🤔😎

Write a killer query letter (3 paragraphs, addressed to the agent, under 250 words) As for storytelling: hone your voice, be unique, understand the market needs.
