Alexis Jacklin is querying a paranormal romance

I’m working on writing my first TV pilot. Any screenwriters or people that do both books and screen wanna give me any tips? #writing #screenwriting

Y'all I sent the very first query for my paranormal project yesterday and THEN I y got a full request yesterday. Literally what????! That's never happened to me before, I'm very grateful. #writing

Q10: YOU BURIED THE LEDE IN THE SECOND LAST SENTENCE. I’m dying with laughter right now! Yes, yes, YES! An excellent concept! Metadata on point. I would break the plot summary into 3 paragraphs vs 2 for readability #RevPit #10Queries

P10: This is laugh-out-loud hilarious. Excellent voice, wonderful prose, and I’m instantly hooked. Love the media format, and I’m RAGING there aren’t anymore pages. Rood! #RevPit #10Queries

Congrats on starting your next WIP! That's huge!
I try to find something I'm more excited about in my next WIP like a character maybe or a scene. I feel every manuscript makes me a stronger writer somehow, so I know whatever I write next will be better than the last at least in some aspect! 🤗

The #RevPit #10queries feedback I just got in my inbox!!!!!! My heart is so full and happy. What I entered is my 6th completed manuscript and will be the 3rd time in the querying trenches. let's just say, I'm very proud of how far I've come as a writer, wow.

Just putting this out here if anyone is interested. I’m offering affordable romance manuscript critiques. I have a certificate in creative writing and am also currently enrolled in a publishing certificate program! 😊💕

DWTS Season Tonight! This always marks the official start of spooky season for me! 👻🎃 (Helps fend off the seasonal depression) It's also oddly enough the time of year when I get the most writing done! (And this year I have a lot of autumn central or spooky ideas)

Finished my read through!! And have 16 pages of handwritten notes! Time for draft 3!!! Still a lot of developmental things to address and (slightly) overwhelmed but this is the best novel I think I’ve written in my writerly life so far! But also feeling like this in revision😂

Got my book on my kindle and notes back from 2 beta readers!! Time to do a read through and dive back in to actually make all the revisions!

I just got some very good feedback for draft 2! Obviously there’s still lots of work and things to improve but it made me excited to dive back in! That’s how I know it’s good feedback, when I resonate deeply and can’t wait to get deeper into revisions. 🤗

I wish I could add the books I beta read to my Goodreads goal, anyone relate
- someone very behind on their reading goal for the year

What are everyone’s favourite craft books? Looking for recommendations. #writing
