I started querying about 8 weeks ago. So far, I have:
4 rejections
2 full requests
I'm still waiting on feedback from one agent who requested a full. The other one gave me some really nice feedback and told me I could revise and resubmit.
This truly is a waiting game.

man I'm bad at accountability threads. Anyways, I've finished the book and officially joined the query trenches 🥳

Trying to make my overview more fun my using stickers and LOOK AT THIS LITTLE GUY (And yes, that's for areas i need to work on)

Very much enjoying Miro to organize my thoughts and get a visual overview of my story's various threads 🙏

Also: my graveyard of unused scenes is slowly growing big enough to be its own book. I'm hereby saying goodbye to the first scenes I ever wrote for this story 🥲 but it's not goodbye forever... hopefully.

Update #1 - almost figured out the new structure! Plotting always feels like sketching to me. You put down the main shapes and then figure out the details, but the overall flow is what is important in the beginning 💫

Welcome to my attempt at keeping myself accountable as I revise this story ✨ For now, my goal is not to write but to brainstorm on how I can fix this ms. Hopefully, by the end of this, I can get the writing part down without falling into my usual hole of 'oh god what have I done'
