Turned in my first round of edits to my agent last Monday. Got my MS from 100K to 94K, which is an achievement for me as an overwriter! Now to wait to hear back from her - either we'll go on sub or she'll suggest another round of edits. Eek! #agented #revisions #amediting #WIP #writer

This sounds amazing! We need this now 👀

Of course! Your book sounds amazing! And thank you so much, I appreciate it 🫶🏼🥹

I'm 26, but I'm a mom with a full-time job who also goes to law school 🥴 Can I join?

Had my first editorial meeting with my agent! I'm filled with hope, possibilities, and excitement. It's time to dive into my MS again and implement our revisions before we go on sub!!!! Everything still feels surreal. #amagented #agented #amrevising #revisions #edits #amediting #edits #writer ✨️

This is so sweet, thank you so much! ✨️ I wish you all the success in your querying journey. Your premise sounds incredible! 🫶🏼

I outline before drafting but allow myself to implement anything that comes to mind and deviates from the outline along the way! Then I reverse outline when I revise.

As I wait for my agent (still surreal to write this!) to get back to me with the edits I need to work on before we go on sub (eek!), I've started draft 0 of my THEATER WIP. Draft 0, for me, is free writing anything that comes to mind and RESEARCH. #amwriting #amdrafting #amrevising #agented #writer

Congratulations! ✨️

Eek, yes! Thank you! ✨️

Thank you! ✨️

I'm thrilled to announce I'm now represented by Claire Friedman at Inkwell Management!

Claire is an absolute dream agent. Her enthusiasm and vision for my novel, as well as for my author career amazed me.

Ahhhh! Thank you so much 🫶🏼

My #amquerying novel made The Cheshire Novel Prize Top 100!!!!!!! Out of 1,500+ entries!!!!!!!! I submitted my entry last May, primarily for the feedback they provide to all entries, but never in a million years did I think I would reach the Top 100. To say I'm ecstatic would be an understatement.

Exciting things are happening in my #querying journey! I have a very important decision to make I can't yet talk about. Eek! #amquerying #query #writer #writersofbluesky #writesky

Thank you so much! 🥹❤️

There is a black background with big circle with a smaller circle inside of it. In the big circle at the top is #GhostPit 2 Ghosts to each side of that between that and the bottom words that read The Halloween Pitch Event. In the smaller circle there are greeb and orange/gold stars. In front of them in a cute sheet ghost and in front of him is a pencil and an open green book with yellow pages.

#GhostPit will be happening October 30, 2025!

Just got my 2nd FULL REQUEST (eek! ✨️) and my 1st rejection. #amquerying #query #writer #writersofbluesky

It's a psychological horror. The chaos of brainstorming is part of my process. It's the stage where I write everything that comes to mind to then organize it. I let myself write freely without worrying about structure yet. Kind of like a 0 draft. Are you working on something, too?

Is there anything more exciting than starting a new WIP? I'm in the brainstorming/planning stage, so it's a mess that I have to arrange before starting to write. But I love it so much already. #amwriting #writer #author #writersofbluesky #WIP

I just got my first FULL REQUEST!!!! Screaming, crying, throwing up. #amquerying #writingcommunity #query #writer
