"The only element I find common to all successful writers is persistence－an overwhelming determination to succeed." —Sophy Burnham #WritingCommunity #writing

"Seeking stories about characters assuming another identity—or another's identity." Cecilia (Cece) Lyra, Agent #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

"Seeking romance, literary, commercial, suspense, young adult, middle grade, and picture books." @CurtisPSLA #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

I used to think I'd write all day every day if I didn't work full-time. Now that I'm semi-unemployed (waiting for my company to offer a new contract, long story) I'm actually not writing any more than I used to. Why?? #rant #WritingCommunity

"I'm looking for the type of magical picture books that sticks with a child throughout their life—the kind that lingers." @adriamgoetz #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Now that I'm on sub and all, I feel like I really should be on Twitter more often. But I don't really know what to Tweet about :( Any tips? #WritingCommnunity

Dude, trying to get traditionally published is not for the weak

Writing the first chapters is lot like the honeymoon stage of a relationship. There's the initial rush of excitement, everything about the book seems perfect, and you're certain this will be the best thing you have ever written... #WritingCommunity #amwriting #inLove

Everyone needs a hug sometimes, even orange cats 🥺

I used to be so conscious of being an ESL writer but it is such a big strength in the age of AI! ChatGPT doesn't make grammatical mistakes. So outs will be like little human markers that distinguish us from AI writing ,✨
