E. H. Kell is Querying

Q for those of you who’ve read the #Outlander 📖series: how much of a commitment is it, as in, is it still a satisfying read if you only read the 1st book (or 1st few)? #booksky #amreading

that is so helpful to know if a manuscript could be a good match! hope this becomes a MSWL trend!

Yes! It took me a few years to ‘trust the process’ if im honest 😅 Fallow times are still scary, but ever since realizing they’re a pattern, I’ve gotten better at enjoying the benefits and no longer stress as much

Now I’m embracing them as an opportunity to rest, reset my brain, take in all the amazing feedback I got from #RevPit and my fellow CCs, and begin daydreaming about my next book… before heading to the query trenches again 🤞

#writesky #writingcommunity

Between #amquerying the novel and participating in #RevPit I’ve been in the biggest writing slump ever (500 words written (on a new book project) in a month!)

Such ‘fallow periods’ happen to me at the end of every meaningful project. They used to scare tf out of me.

I didn’t win #RevPit, but getting an email from @jenichappelle.bsky.social telling me to expect feedback absolutely made my WEEK. I’m so glad I participated and got to know such lovely and generous humans (authors and editors alike)!

Congratulations to the winners and runners-up!! Though I didn’t win, I had so much fun participating this year. Huge thanks again to all the #RevPit editors who brought this event to life!

And fellow non-winners… keep writing 💪♥️

Thank you for doing this!

So many people dream of writing a novel and never do. YOU wrote a whole novel. Drafted, rewrote, edited, revised, and were brave enough to share it with others. No matter what happens tomorrow, you should all be so proud of yourselves! 💪

All the #RevPit editors are available to hire + for some of us, editing is our day job.

If you enjoyed + got useful info from this event, the best way to help/thank us is to recommend us to authors looking for an editor. Most of my new clients come to me by word-of-mouth, so it really does help! 🥰

Thank you!!

Thanks Allison! Super helpful!

Regardless of #RevPit results, I plan to: get to know some of my fellow authors better / resume querying my novel / start writing my next one / maybe blow off some steam w a little fanfic or two 😁

Same here 😥

*nail biting intensifies*

Truer words ☝️☝️☝️😅

Thanks so much for all your insights!

Are there any tell tale signs in FP / QLs that make you go “this writer is still inexperienced”? I know it when I see it, but it’s hard to pinpoint what could be improved.

I admit, I peek at age and genre first 😅 then go back to try to learn something from every one of the queries and pages haha

I have a nosy question for the #RevPit editors (apologies if it’s been asked before) ☝️

We got #RevPies of genres, ages, & now I’m curious about base sizes! On average, how many subs does a RevPit editor get? 👀

I’m grateful for the fun & games, the sense of community, the awesome insights, and the editors’ incredible generosity. Every time I do #RevPit I’m amazed. Y’all are the best 🤩

Learned a lot and will have another look at my comps for sure! Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us!
I don’t think mine was in there so I won’t try to guess the authors… 👀 can’t wait for next Tuesday!
