Y’all are doing it wrong. “May the Fourth be with you.” WRONG: “And also with you.” RIGHT: “And with your spirit.” Really? You needed a witch to tell you that? *Maggie judgmental side-eye*

I finished sending book 5 queries & have finally taken the advice to have a separate email account to open only when you have the spoons. Y’all, it’s a LIFESAVER. I’ve got a masochistic side, I guess, because I look several times a day—but only when I CHOOSE. Yay, mental health!

And then you wear them down until eventually they become a real friend. Uh, Lisa?

We don’t “celebrate” Memorial Day. We HONOR it and those who gave their lives to buy our freedoms. And we defile the spirit in which they left us by standing aside while the very freedoms they died for are taken away today. Wake up, America.

Do those of you who have cats know that lilies are absolutely TOXIC to them and any contact or ingestion (even just pollen) is a veterinary EMERGENCY?? Just my little daily PSA.

Okay, besties...hear me out. This may be an unpopular opinion, but what if we went back to pitch events NOT being incessant? I LOVE supporting you insanely talented beauties, but these every other day vibes have turned the fun of it stressful & burnout-inducing. Just saying.

Going black in horror. #NewProfilePic

Ah geez... when you've written off your querying manuscript because you're overdramatic (except there's one person you secretly hope loves it) and your inbox dings so you go to check off yet another rejection, but when you reread it, you realize it's not a rejection...

When you have a theme for a new manuscript, the plot clarifies itself, *3* legit comps pop up, and the universe mysteriously delivers a journal and pen to your doorstep... the rule is that you must write the book, right? I don't make the rules. Fuck. #writingcommunity

Who will love D&D WIP? People who enjoy: ✨yearning slow burns ✨found family, D&D style parties ✨fantastical creatures and underground-inspired portal fantasies ✨harmful magic angst ✨friend breakups ✨mysterious dreams that lead to an identity crises

Interesting insight from watching Les Mis: write villains like they’re heroes. Because every fiber of their being believes they are.

Sarah is an amazing writer, and this story is absolutely brilliant. Heads up, #agent friends! You don’t want to miss this when it hits the trenches. 🥰😎

Clue #274849000 that you might be a writer: you just made a business memo to your MD counterparts voicey. Wonder how this will go over…

What’s the most random song in your writing playlist? “D’Yer Mak’er”

At some point, you just hope for manuscript rejections—anything—as proof of life.

My friend can write her little tail off! This is an amazing book I can’t wait to see hit the shelves. Don’t believe me? Leave her a number on the OP and see. She’s a rock star!!!

Book club, women’s fiction, and upmarket romancey-type authors… let’s band together. Anyone want to form a Discord writing/reading/support group? Agented or unagented—but traditional, please, as indie and trad tend to be different markets. ❤️ Let’s goooooo!!!

Yayyyy!!!! I’m so excited for both Laura Jordan and C.L. Geisler!!! Y’all are gonna do amazing things together, and I can’t wait to cheer you on!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Knowing Raine, DROWN. Not participating tomorrow, but I look forward to supporting.
