‘Human Aslan’ got me, honestly

I’m still figuring out what route to take with it, but I’ll post on here when I have any updates ☺️

HA! 💀

Some would call it a ‘USP’ 😌

Omg how many spicy novels did you read?!

‘It’s John’ 💀

Hi Agents
Ok, yeah, there’s a lot of spicy romcoms out there
BUT
All of my beta readers got pregnant whilst reading mine…
So, that’s our marketing hook, right? This book will basically sell itself.

That would be a whole different vibe for sure 😂

Hot human equivalent of Aslan got me 😂

Thank you!

Text thread between Fate and FMC. FMC would like to return the hot man fate has bestowed upon her, but Fate doesn’t accept returns. FMC is quite upset

#UnhingedPit #A #R #Q
This took as long to make as it did to write the book - a 90k spicy romcom
*ahem*
When fate keeps pushing a hot man into your life but you don’t want him (ok, you kind of do but not really)

Ok ok ok
I think I’ve finished the first draft of my second book (internal screaming)
Obvs I’ll noodle around with it and change it a lot
But stage one is ✨done✨ and I can’t quite believe I’ve managed to do this for a second time?! #writingcommunity

Ok, it’s not writing related, but I just had to share because I grew a plant from seed (ah!) and it’s grown so big (ah!) and my gnome is now surrounded by pink flowers and I think it’s the cutest

A circuits class, followed by adding 2k words to my draft. Now it’s time for bed before I keel over 🥱

Oh gahd. Hi. 13 days since my last post. 13 days of having my head down and writing during every free moment.
Am now 80% of the way through this first draft #aaaaah #writingcommunity #amwriting & #amquerying (have been avoiding QT like the plague 🙂)

Had some feedback that nearly made me cry.
They said I had a distinct & lovely voice, and beautiful prose 😭 Sorry? Me?
Also, the MS made them giggle.
I fear I’m about to become unbearable 🙂‍↕️ *internal screaming*

At the stage where I don’t even flinch at a QueryTracker email anymore, open them with zero expectation, and carry on with my day when it’s a rejection 😂 is this peace or a trauma response? Idk #amquerying #writingcommunity

I’m 56000 words in and I just had an idea that changes ✨everything✨ soooo I’m gunna just close my laptop and stare out of the window for a little while whilst I contemplate why I decided to start writing books 🙂

#WIPSnips a fun one for ‘search’ - it’s really hard being the sibling that could do romance blindfolded whilst your brother constantly fumbles the girl 🙄

Concerned that sending queries is becoming an addiction. Is there a support group I could join? #amquerying #writingcommunity

Today’s chalking.
Rest in peace, Andrea Gibson

I just found out Andrea Gibson passed away and suddenly the world feels a little less bright

‘Just to be clear
I don’t want to get out
without a broken heart.
I intend to leave this life
so shattered
there’s gonna have to be
a thousand separate heavens
for all of my flying parts.’
– Andrea Gibson

Ah Jesus, just finished the third book only to find out it’s a FIFTEEN book series. Goddamn…
I’m obviously going to read them all, but still.

The amount of time I waste clicking on the Manuscript Wish List link on agent query tracker profiles, only to find they don’t have a Manuscript Wish List set up…
