I just realized that I misspelled your name in my query. I am so sorry. I think my autocorrect must have done it.

I'm reading Little Women for the first time. Don't know why I'm just now getting around to it. But I just read the sad part and my heart is shattered. I knew what happened, but wow that hit hard. I'm going to go put this book in the freezer now.

Congrats to EVERYONE! Maybe you’re a winner/runner up/10 query inspo, or maybe not. You know what you did anyway? Wrote a BOOK! You wrote a query, a synopsis, and an entire application. You let strangers read it all, you bet on yourself, and you tried. Nothing changes that! #revpitwaiting #revpit

Lol we measure anticipated events in "sleeps" in our house for my anxious neurodivergent son who can't yet conceptualize time. Fyi, there are, in fact, 7 sleeps til Easter.

It was just so funny that I'd JUST read this part! Even after all this time since this was written, it's still so true and identifiable! And this is why I so dearly love literature. I think ink runs in my veins.
