Few people know this about me, but I’m not always a massive wanker. Most of the time, I’m just your average medium-sized one. This evening, however—spent at a wedding, no less—was one of my rare exceptions. #WIP #A #R #1stLinePit

I once heard that nervousness and excitement feel alike, but I can firmly put that myth to rest. What this theory fails to consider is the sudden risk of shitting yourself when nervous—which is exactly why I was stuck on the loo on the most fateful day of my life. #R #1stLinePit

#SCAMALERT FOR WRITERS: Michelle Albanes Davis is posing as NYTimes bestseller Michelle Albanes-Davis (confirmed by the real author), trying to hook you up with “literary expert” @all_authors. Please share and be aware! #amquerying #WritingCommmunity #amwriting #authors #writers

2 years ago I had just finished my final draft of my first novel and started querying, anxious and certain that it wasn’t good enough. Today, I’ve received 8 FM requests and mind-boggling compliments from industry professionals. #YouDontWinIfYouDontTry

Why am I always obsessively checking my inbox just minutes after querying an agent when I know it takes weeks to months to receive a reply 🤦🏻‍♀️ #IllogicalActions #amquerying #WritingCommunity

Since there are still lots of writers on here pursuing traditional publishing, here’s a thread of times I almost gave up and why I’m glad I didn’t: 1. I won a query critique from an agent on my 1st Ms and they requested to see more, but then ghosted me.

Querying authors, I say this in the most gentle, loving way: Those partial and full requests you’re getting? Those aren’t miracles or luck. Those are PROOF of your talent, hard work, and dedication! Please, let that sink in, babe. 🫶🏻✨ #WritingCommunity

Thank you so much for sharing!! 👏🏻 This is great!!!
