Journey to the edge of the trenches:

1 x story idea
2 x writing courses
3 x pro editors
4 x beta readers (twice)
500 edits and goodness knows how many hours and books read.

I’m ready.

This is what a year’s worth of reading looks like for me. I have no idea how some read this almost monthly! It’s the most I’ve read in a year since uni (20 yrs ago!)

As I enter the @prize_novel for the 2nd year in a row with the same two books, I reflect on the year.
Cons: I queried both books way too early and burnt through some great agents 😞
Pros: both books are in such a great place now and it forced me to learn so much! Bring on 2025!

Started editing the 1st book I wrote 4 years ago. Have learnt so much about writing since then. I’ve deleted 7 full pages of telling/info dumping… I’m on chapter 4! 🙈

Only joined Bluesky a few days ago but must say so far I’m impressed. I still love my writing community on X. Every other SM channel seems way worse for random ads and comments. Early days, but so far, mainly writers on here 🤗.
