Musu Cole 📚✨

Thanks! It will definitely be a good project to work on when I hibernate (hid) from the cold outside this winter 😂

Good luck on your R&R! And you're right about feedback helping make the work better. Especially if you pretty much already had a feeling something needed to be fixed but not quite sure what direction to take (which is usually me side eyeing my MS for a bit😂)

Got an R&R (second one) for my book and I'm actually, hyped? I knew I wanted to make more revisions and seeing the feedback align with that makes me know I'm heading in the right direction #bvm

Right! I don't even see the point without it 😂

I'm going to need the Uno company to stop announcing their rules to me. WE STACK CARDS IN THIS FAMILY 🗣️

Congratulations!!!

I actually have video but rather not have you all hear me shout AYYYYYE AYYYYE 😂 (Never listen to yourself at concerts)

Cousin 1: Santigold's music is life

Me: "About that. I was on stage at her concert this summer 🤷🏾‍♀️"

Cousin 2: ... Wait, what?! How the hell did you manage that?

Cousin 1: Why are you asking, you know Musu is always on a side quest. She literally has a play in a museum

Me: It's the ADHD? 😂

Sometimes I'm mistaken for younger, but this one made me do a little dance lol. I asked a worker at the bodega where the beers were and he scoffed, asking for my ID in this like "sure, okay" tone, smirking. I smirk back, hand it over. Seeing the shift from snark to shock made my bad day WAY better😂

Dm'd her name, in case she's having a "get me off the internets" week lol

The lack of sun isn't helping for sure

That definitely would have me heavy sighing, feeling so close with feedback like that😞. I hope eventually it all lines up for you and the rework ends up having someone ready to sign you 🖤

Most of those inserts (not the right champion etc) are form, which unfortunately doesn't really offer feedback in terms of the right direction to take. But I would probably shift around my query package if it was consistently like this (all rejections) and seek peer feedback

Very small world but, I think you might know my sister 😂

Social media has weirdly conditioned a huge number of people to feel like they're Doing Something by posting, and Doing Nothing if they don't post about a particular thing, and in general neither of those things are true.

Two?! Noope, I'm good. That is definitely one of those "I'll see it at home in parts, in-between snacking and naps" kinda watch for me 🤣

I legit just cackled out loud😂

I've been saying the same thing! I have a lot to catch up on 😂

I'll talk about query stuff soon but in summary, I've sent out less than 30 queries since May 😂 (have requests). It's not that I've been afraid but more like... After experiencing so much loss in my life, I want to take my time with the things that matter to me. Like my story ❤️ #bvm

Seriously. Feels hard to keep track of what day it is (at least for me lmao!)

Demonic!

I'll figure out this app some more once the errors stop (the battery drain is wild, I need a new phone soon🙃)

Me: November's been a loooooong year
Husband: *shouts finger and pauses briefly* You know what, yeah that makes sense

So proud of you Savannah and all the hard work you put into bringing this to the world! And when you're in the city in the future, I owe you a little shoulder shimmy shake celebratory moment 😂 🖤

Ic0niclisa Throwing GIF Alt: Cartoon character from Hey Arnold throwing a tomato

One of my favorite features on this app is the self-moderation system. As a formed people pleaser, I say set those boundaries EARLY with no hesitation! And I'll throw a tomato or something at whatever guilt hits you, if it does (I mean it, ask my friends lol)

Oh and just in case anyone is wondering, sometimes the feeds will go down but they eventually come back (soon hopefully) ☺️. Good morning!
