Another morning, another rejection. It’s actually nice to get a rejection, even if it’s form, instead of radio silence. I just keep moving forward. #amquerying #querying #amwriting #writerslife

As other day another query. My record for rejection is 11 minutes. Ouch. #writing #querying #writerslife

Working to add Bluesky to my webpage. Man, I wish I was computer savvy.

Working on a good query is freaking harder than writing the novel!

Send positive thoughts, I could use some.

What is a Saturday without a cheese plate? Onion and chive Cotswold, danish blue cheese, and a goat milk mozzarella with a bit of a basic Monterey Jack. Yum! #cheese #cheeseplate

Nothing makes me happier than adding a book from a fellow writer that I helped critique. I keep them in a stack on the shelf with any book that published a story of mine. Congrats to the newest addition ‘Annihilator’ by James A. Malone! #writers #books #authors #annihilator

A little sad today. Due to the cold and the fact we need to decorate for the holidays, we are skipping our weekly hike.

At least there’s Christmas music involved. Who can feel sad while listening to that?

While it’s great to have a story critiqued, I feel that I learn just as much from critiquing others work as well. It really makes you think about your own work.

Writing Group Day! One of my favorite days. Every two weeks our group meets to critique the stories we’re working on. This week, one of my chapters is on the chopping block! I can’t wait! #writing #critiqueing #authors #urbanfantasy

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I know the history to the holiday is twisted and dark, but I love spending the day with family and eating too much food!

Got a page written in my WIP. Had a bit of writers block and I found writing it by hand and typing it up later helps overcome the block. I’m just happy the story is moving forward again! #writers #urbanfantasy #writersblock

I don't know who needs to hear this, but, #writing a #book takes as long as it takes. Only you can tell the #story your way, in your time. Some books are quick to write, and others take months and sometimes years of thinking, plotting and actual writing. It's okay. #WritingTips

I think people have gotten the message about writing whatever weird book is burning a hole in their soul.

Now for step 2:

I know you’re excited, but don’t rush it into the world. Edit the living fuck out it, with help from others, so it will hit with the force of a tornado.

Just found BlueSky! Hoping to reconnect with the writing and reading community. I missed the interactions! #writers #authors #books #urbanfantasy
