Yes! So much more efficient than scrolling! I’ve also been using select all for chapter word counts a lot on revisions and it’s so helpful. An editor showed me that trick years ago and not a writing session goes by where I’m not navigating with that!

Me too!

🙌🙌 I’ve loved making the connections as well! I’ve missed that about the old Twitter writing community days before Elon ruined it.

Plus I made some good connections in the old YA Twitter community years ago from all over the world who went on to be crit partners and friends I met IRL. So I am trying to reconnect. 2/2

I actually started a writing group where I live now, which is great! But I live in a pretty rural area and there’s not other YA writers. It’s also easier to connect with others at the same point in the writing journey (writing, querying, subbing, promoting, etc). 1/2

🙌🙌🙌 it’ll get easier each time!

Oh... wow.... I don't love trampoline parks generally, but that is extra special. I'm imagining loud pop music as well. Glad you survived!

❤️❤️❤️ awww that’s hard.

Thank you! Yours rocks as well! East Coast Canada FTW. Repping time zones most Americans don’t know exist haha.

Thaaanks!!! I’m hoping it is! ❤️❤️❤️

It really is. On so many levels. Which is why I approached my husband’s pleading for a puppy with great reticence lol.

🤞🤞 I’m always afraid to say it out loud because—never fails—I then find yet another thing that needs doing as soon as I dare utter the words haha.

Hey, I’m doing #1stLinePit from Nova Scotia! YA Contemporary. It’s been a few years since I’ve dabbling in hashtag pitches. I’ve definitely missed the writing community that can grow around it!

Well I made the great life choice of staying up till 2 am finishing my book trailer for #1stLinePit only to spend the today getting a puppy, helping my hockey boy get used to his new helmet at the rink, and getting my daughter to and from
an impromptu bday party 😅 #writermomlife

Me too! 🙌🙌
