My historical fiction-vampire novel is 174,000. I sent out three query letters to agents for it yesterday and immediately got a form letter back saying it was too long.

Should I just chop my boon in half and end it with TBC? #booksky

My hair got caught by a tree. Fortunately I wasn't being chased by my enemies. #Absalom

I think I addressed the criticisms of the first draft of my query letter for Darkness Visible well, and here is what I'm going to actually send off. :) Would it make you want to check out the book? #booksky

What Christians are these? I remember people singing songs from it and Godspell at every opportunity in church growing up.

The meal was yummy.

Has anyone else ever been given Jolly Ranchers at a restaurant? (And this was before the meal) (It was an Afghani restaurant) #foodsky

This is your occasional reminder that Rose O'Neill, creator of the Kewpies, first published female cartoonist in the United States, and among the first cartoonists to build a merchandising empire on their work, turned out some absolutely baller, romantic-feeling size-difference monster art.

Trinity the tuck meme of "where are the jokes" but replacing "jokes" for "lights"

Me watching modern movies

why is Looney Tunes the art style of the third one?

MY DINNER WITH ANDRE at The Sphere! See what everyone else in the restaurant is eating! Marvel at the dishes that have yet to be bussed! Thrill as gratuity is added!

The Birthday with Corey Feldman (produced in 2004 but only released in 2024) was pretty interesting. The tone was very strange, almost cartoonish, but I really liked how everything was choreographed. It did as much with modern dance as another film would with CGI. Give it a look, #filmsky

i've only seen the first one

American Pop is on Blu-Ray!

My favorite of your films :)

Today is my birthday (turning 29), which is the only time all year that I ask for a repost 🌿
I hope you get lost in fantasy worlds as much as I do 🔮

that sounds like the perfect game for my laptop.

but this worked for trump who keeps saying everything he did in his first term was done by biden

Chili Mangoes in Fredericksburg

i'd never seen the first two memes.

i mean, i don't like incessantly barking dogs....

the flavor is so concentrated it's hard to eat. i wish it had been mostly the sorbet on the bottom with this flavor drizzled over it

this is one of the most unusual things i'be ever eaten

i think it's a star better. (but i wasn't blown over by knives out the same way every one else seemed to be)

The lighting makes you look like a (sexy) drawing

C3PO and R2-D2 in Raiders of the Lost Ark. I'm still waiting for the sequel where they visit our galaxy in the bronze age.

is this the closet kids got stuck in in Matilda?

Tom Baker was hilarious as a drunk, lecherous priest in the last episode. Also, "What I call" Patricia Hodge from Miranda!

Some things that happen in the She Devil miniseries also happen in the movie with with Roseanne and Meryl Streep, but boy was this a bizarre film. I'm not sure I know what to make of it. Worth watching of you have the stomach for something a bit nasty. #filmsky
