"Working with Erika on my novel—a story deeply rooted in my own life—was extraordinary. [She] helped me shape raw life experiences into a cohesive, compelling narrative with a stronger structure, deeper character arcs, and greater emotional resonance."

Beautiful work by our friend and feature, @jlyndelia.bsky.social
I've decided to get back to the query trenches with my YA LGBTQIA++ mystery novel. In some ways, it's a shitty hard time to pitch a queer book. And also, someone out there needs to see a nonbinary hero of their own story.
And so, I will persist.

Publishers, I am begging you, set up some kind of system to confirm that you got a submission. I have four stories under review right now and I have no clue if any of them have actually been received by the publisher. #writingcommunity

When I was 13, my dad snuck onto my computer and sent my unfinished fiction manuscript to his stepmother, Caroline Lassalle, founding editor of Picador. The kind, generous & encouraging developmental feedback she sent in response changed my life. Now I'm an editor, too 💜 #WriteSky #WritingCommunity

The #WIPSnips word for March 1st is “face” #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #WritingPrompts
I had to really hunt through my WIP for a scene with the word "face" that was even remotely appropriate. Even this is still sexy, though SFW for the most part. A bit about kissing.

Mesellah nodded as though she could not speak, her expression choked, fresh tears streaming down her face.
“I not only found Lawcket, I spoke to him,” Aisferk continued, “and do you know what he told me?”
Mesellah looked at him again. “That he wants us all to be happy,” she said in . . .
