Thank you! I need it. The idea isn't exactly "on trend" right now 😮💨

People on nextdoor.com are wild.
I'm biting the bullet and paying for a developmental editor. I don't know for sure if it'll get me closer to #traditional #publication, but keep your fingers crossed for me #writingcommunity 🤞🤞🤞 #💙📚
Ooo I like that too! But I understand the hesitation. Chiseling away at a novel takes so much energy. I'm always astounded by how exhausted I feel after.
There's still a chance. If your other books do, you can always bring it back to the table. What was the title?
Thank you!! That's really helpful. It was from a poem I wrote that never really worked, but I always loved that one line.
Hi #booksky #writingsky #writersupport #blueskywriters #bskywriters #writingcommunity I need your help ...
📚❓️📚❓️📚❓️📚
Which title for my #speculative #literary #fiction #novel do you like best:
1. Lifers (current title)
2. Warmth & Color
3. Vivifica In Vivo
4. Grief Looks Good On Me
Has anyone watched The Great Mouse Detective recently? I swear, Trump saw Ratigan as an idol, and Elon as his personal Felicia.
#booksky #literaturesky #writingcommunity I need #feedback on my #novel 💙📚. My pinned post gives more details, but it's #adult #literary #speculative #fiction. I'm not sensitive to #critiques and need to know that everything makes sense and keeps your interest. Any takers? DM me if so. Thanks!
Dang! Mine fell behind the couch once, and another time I left it in a bag I rarely used, so I didn't think to look there. But if it's not somewhere like that, then I think you got some gnomes who just needed something good to read.

Between the couch cushions? Behind a pillow? Under a blanket?
Would somebody please take my brain for a while? I'm so tired of it whirring around up there.

There is no fatigue like editing-fatigue, but congrats on getting it done! I hope you still like it in the morning. I know that's my issue. I'll love something I wrote in the dark, then when morning comes ... yikes.
Same here with the first half, but why stoked @allgoodthingsmd.bsky.social ?
