10 years ago I was still stuck in the query trenches (lost & confused). Here’s a few things I’ve learned about writing/publishing in the past decade 🧵 1. Resilience. Rejection is part of the job. It gets easier. It’s not that your work isn’t good it’s that it isn’t a good fit.

Went to the library to peruse the horror books and instead sat down at the big reference table and wrote a whole chapter of my WIP. I love libraries.

I’m meant to be working on my ghost story collection but I had a great idea for an apocalypse story this morning and I’m currently massively distracted by it.

Stop me if you've heard this one. Three old friends reunite in their hometown. Greg is paralyzed by thunder, Billie is terrified of the rain, and Adam has walked with a cane since Greg nearly beat him to death five years ago. Time to face the past. #A #H #PitDark

I’ve seen some people talking about the rise in shorter novels, around 50k words-ish. Is this mainly for indie press or are agents accepting shorter novel submissions too?
