I ended up not submitting Loving Her Princess to SmoochPit; I submitted a different manuscript under a different pen name. I think this was the best call!
Who's applied or planning to apply to SmoochPit?
what's fueling this R&R?
- venti iced caramel macchiato
- venti iced pumpkin spice latte, with only 4 pumps of syrup
- cans of bubly sparking water
- quesadillas
my partner is so supportive of all my dumbassery.
maintaining multiple pen names? thinking about vlogging? querying one pen name, indie publishing another?
it makes no sense, but they're supportive anyway. so thanks ๐

A. foxena (three-eyed fox, smells like your favorite thing)
B. lupinot (antlered fae wolf, sounds like human singing)
C. kestre (winged cat, makes biscuits *in the air*)
D. microdragon (literally just a tiny dragon, I love them so much)
me: *sends one singular email*
me: and now we wait patiently bc everyone runs on a different schedule and it's presumptuous to assume they'll see it immediately
...
also me: *refresh refresh refresh refresh refr--*
I am so bad at relaxing. What's your preferred method to reset?
