As an Old ™️, I am debating whether or not take make one of these newfangled Agent's Guides for my querying manuscript. I'm thinking I need four graphics (right?): a pitch, a moodboard, a snippet, and... what else? 😅

I've been absolutely haunted by this story since it strong-armed its way into my head... two weeks ago. 80% plotted, 100% romantic folk horror. And it sings to me of flowers and fire and moss. I present to thee: Moss Baby WIP

I'm desperate for ARC readers for my cosy historical fantasy! A chronically ill water nymph moves to an Edwardian spa for treatments but finds herself falling in love with a human 🌸

I feel like each new chapter I write is my new favorite chapter. Please, oh please, Moss Baby Muse, let me keep this enthusiasm for the duration of this draft ✨️🕯✨️

[grabs bullhorn] HOLLOW IS GETTING A MULTI-STOP TOUR AHHHHHHHH 😭 mark your calendars for debut week!!

Hollow is in the TOP 15 MOST REQUESTED HORROR BOOKS ON NETGALLEY WHAT 😭❤️😭❤️😭 thank you all so much

I have two playlists for my WIPs: One with words, and one without The instrumental, for writing, is moody classical or low-fi (because if somebody else's words are in my head, I have none of my own 🙃) The playlist with words is for ✨️vibes✨️ and moodboard making, naturally

"This is it, this is the story that will catch an agent's eye!" — me, after writing each new manuscript 🙃

My writing dream: I don't need fame I don't need to be a bestseller (would be cool, though) I don't need to earn lots of money (also, very cool) I just want people to read my books and think, "I love these fictional people." (Or maybe love to hate them 😉) That's all I want ☺️

Me: *writes star-crossed lovers into a folk horror plot* Me: Wait... *squints at WIP* Is romantic folk horror a thing? Characters: *stare wide-eyed and nod aggressively* Me: it is now, I guess 🙃

Halfway between one house and another is a heck of a liminal space. Moving is nuts. But we're fortunate enough that we can take our time instead of one big, fast, sweaty moving day. Half old, half new Trying to lean into the growth, even if it's a little painful 💫

Hey, #writingcommunity Drop line 8 from page 187 of your MS: "The pain continues, intensifies, throbbing between her ears, up through her nose, deep into her sinuses. The world is a stretching, seething mass..." 👀 👀 👀 Open tag if you want to play! ☺️

I'm not sure, but I think my motivation is at the bottom of this coffee cup. Operation: Pack Up Your Life and Move is almost over... (and I can see my characters again!!) 🫠🫠😵‍💫

My street team for VILE LADY VILLAINS is still open for a bit more. Join? You get: •VILE LADY VILLAINS e-arc •swag and exclusive giveaway •my undying gratitude •the chance of being a part of something great, like murder* *for legal reasons this is a joke Link in next post

I do a little lurk on X, see lots of other writers querying and some successes (🥳🎉🥳), then cry in Too Busy To Edit My Manuscript. Soon. I will be able to edit again SOON 🤞🤞

How does one break into fiction editing? I'd love to be able to lend my eye and experience to fellow writers, but I'm hesitant to hang out my editor's shingle. Any advice or words of encouragement are welcomed 💫 #WritingCommunity

Dipping my toe back into querying, and I'm already equal parts excited and terrified. My horror-romance Moss Baby's got herself a Title ™️, and a date with destiny... (I hope, anyway 🤞🤞)
