Deserves a more polished and experienced writer.

-a retired pretended-to-be-author who wants to get back to writing again just to write

It has been over a year since I’ve written anything. Not because I don’t have the itch to create, but because I have now associated my writing skills and ideas with failure and a waste of time.

These characters and stories are still constantly playing out in my head though, but probably…

Enough to want to query the hell out of it. It’s also the first time I paid to get edits and included betas in efforts to get it to the best version that it could be.

This process really ruined my passion in creating new worlds and emerging myself in stories that move me.

Every book that I’ve ever written NEVER started off as a “oh, maybe I can query this one day”. All of my projects stem from passion and excitement in creating worlds and characters. I truly love that part of the process.

It just so happens that this last book in particular was one that moved me…

Moms are the best to talk to ❤️

Absolutely, as hard as it is to do, just breathe and try to take it day by day. I know it’s easier said than done, believe me I know lol. Stressing will only do more harm than good. Spoil yourself today with whatever you love to do. Binge something, read, sleep, eaat 😁

Five pages are a lot of pressure. Three pages are just crazy 😭

🤞🏻 always here to talk

So sorry to hear. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

You’ve already got me patiently—barely—waiting for the day your vamp book gets published, now this 😩 your ideas are always so good!

I feel like most don’t, at least I haven’t experienced it too often. Never got one on a Saturday, think I got a response on a Sunday night. Saturdays could be a worry free day most of the time😂

Welcome to the trenches 😁

New folks are always welcomed! Love getting to meet new people. It’s nice to meet you as well. 😁

Right? Magic would solve all our problems 😩

Two to hold the book, another to flip pages. The unused tentacles would probably have a beverage of some sort and probably a reading light (if it’s at night) 😂

I see there’s no edit button on this app either lol. Oops, just read through any typos 😂😭

I say so! Might help with dreaming about your WIP and get you through your next scene in your book lol that’s how my latest book got started 😂 had absolutely no intention on writing this specific book

Followed! Great to meet ya!
