#amwriting is it me, or are authors who successfully support themselves solely by writing, selling their work and book tours kind of like literary unicorns?

when you have OCD and also send stuff to submittable so you be obsessively checking your account every few hours a day even though it takes months for a status change.

So far I've sent out 9 queries, 8 agents, 1 editor. Looking to maybe send 1 more and am shouting into the interwebs for recommendations.

when you feel like the story you're querying is too dark and niche, e.g. everybody thinks OCD is about cleaning but yours is weirder and then you find an agent to query who wants both those things!

One of my fave poem forms is the abecedarian. Each line’s first word begins with a corresponding letter of the alphabet. Line 1 begins with “a” line 2 with “b”all the way to line 26 beginning with “z” I’m thrilled that one of mine was accepted for publication by Grain Magazine 🥰

First form rejection for my novel. It stings but I still have my fingers and toes crossed for good news from the folks I haven't heard back from yet.
