I've never really "collected" band merch of a particular band ...even as a rocker kid all my life but...

I now own eight shirts and two sweaters of Sleep Token ...
So yes the hyper focus on this band has a steel grip on me.

Dark streets. Hidden power. Dangerous choices.

Welcome to the Forest Exiles Saga, where the line between human and something else starts to blur… 🖤🌒

YouTube video by MSNBC ‘F--- them kids’: ICE agents drag children out of bed, ransack Chicago building

According to eyewitnesses, armed ICE agents dragged kids out of their beds in the middle of the night, zip tied them and put them in rented vans while raiding an * entire apartment building* on the South Side of Chicago.

And once again reminded why I'm not really on threads. 😑

I may just stay up past midnight to listen to the TS new album...cause the dopamine I am CRAVING for in ANYTHING to help fight this depression episode and dread is HEAVY.

My brain is just yearning for
Something so I don't slide back to the deep end.

*deep breath*
So yeah it's a bad brain day🫤

Thank goodness I get a text notification the day before my therapy session...cause I couldn't remember which day and forgot to write it down a month ago 😭

Last prompt!😱

I'd like to share part of the book playlist! Music helps inspire me ALOT in writing from moods, scenes, to characters personalities.

Whirlwind is a PERFECT song for the FMC & love interest 🖤

#PitchDis

AFTER THE EVENT Agents and editors won’t have access to pitches until September 16, so you won’t receive any requests before then. Requests will be sent out as they come in. • If you receive a request: o Make sure the agency or publisher is on the list of registered participants. If not, contact #PitchDis to verify (contactpitchdis@gmail.com, @pitchdis on Twitter, or @pitchdis.com on Bluesky). o Research the agent/editor. If you have any doubts, feel free to reach out. o Please follow any submission guidelines included in the request email. • If you don’t receive a request: o Remember that the number of requests during a pitch event is not indicative of the quality of your work. o Keep querying – most people still connect with their agents this way.

Who’s ready to send in their #PitchDis entry this week?! Here are a few things to remember after you hit submit.

I know it's late 😅
#PitchDis prompt!

My favorite thing is my FMC's personality and how she clashes with the love interest.
The tension & learning about each other is my fave from the snarky remarks, banter that goes from agitated to playful...just all of it 🥰

#PitchDis Halloween theme prompt!

Straight up my FMC wouldn't dress up😅
BUT she would have plenty of candy for the kids with options.

(Her best friend would dress up as a famous country singer probably)

#PitchDis prompt!

Writing alone or with others?
Depends on my mood. And who with. There's some folks where we can get a really good writing session in.
And others where I'm not getting anything done 😂

And sometimes you just need to be left alone with your characters

WHAT YOU NEED FOR THE EVENT • Pitch (300 characters or less. Each space, return/enter, and emoji counts as a character) • Age Group/Category • Genre • Name or Pen Name • Email address Remember… • Pitches will be posted in random order, so there is no benefit to rushing to get your pitch in first. • After you submit your pitch, wait to get a confirmation page. You’ll find a link to download a #PitchDis 2025 Participant graphic there.

I know many of you will be preparing your #PitchDis pitch over the weekend, so here's a list of what you'll need for the event and a couple of reminders.

#PitchDis prompt ..

How I came up with the name?
I thought it'd be funny.

And since my FMC loves older country music, well...
Jolene just felt fitting, ya know? 😂

I know it's late...was busy 😅

#PitchDis next prompt!
Either to continue with western romance or going back to paranormal romance.
Probably.
Maybe.
Highly likely.

Can you tell I'm not entirely sure yet, and a pantster in life?😂
