Man, I cannot wait until Thanksgiving break. I’m not actually doing anything, but I could use a breather!

It absolutely counts! All stages of trench-ing count as far as I’m concerned, including prep!

Where are my fellow #amquerying writers at? I need friends in the trenches! #writingcommunity #amwriting

The #amquerying rollercoaster has been fascinating this week. Two full requests on back to back days, then two full rejections on back to back days (not the same ones!) #writingcommunity #amwriting

Nicely done! Consider me impressed! Eh, I'm still in the query trenches with manuscript number 4. Requests on every one, but no offers of rep as of now. I'm hoping this is the one. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Pleasure to meet you! I’m in the same boat. Feel free to hit me up any time you want to chat about anything writing!

Sometimes, I go weeks without any sort of #amwriting ideas, and then I'm casually driving around, misread a sign, and have the plot basics in my head within 24 hours. I love being a #writer sometimes. #writingcommunity

Alright, I'm gonna try to be a little more active on here since the Muskmobile is having another mass exodus. Where's my #amwriting & #amquerying community? #amwritingfantasy #writingcommunity

An awful lot of 'great, but not a great fit for the market'. But c'est la vie when breaking into publishing.

I, too, have been in the trenches for a bit. Since 2020. Multiple WIPs, several 'oh so close's, and no cigars (yet). Onward and upward, my friend, onward and upward.

I appreciate the luck! I'm querying the MS before this one with mixed results so far (but when are they not?). I've got my fingers crossed!

Aaaand it's done! Man, I love the ending of this #WIP. This pass is complete which means she gets to nap until I come back to her in January. Hit the sweet spot I was aiming for at 93k and I could not be more happy. Sapphic immortals fill my heart with joy. #amwriting #writer #writingcommunity

Current project spans 52000 BCE - 2024 CE, dual POV, half love story (actually 30%), half heist. Current wordcount just inched over 90k, and I'm anticipating somewhere between there and 95k. Plus side, the timelines and braiding together in a lovely fashion. #amwriting #writingcommunity #writer

Thanks! I'm definitely not in the market for it at the moment, but I'll let ya know if that changes!

Success! Draft is officially complete. It's just under 88k, and I'm pretty dang pleased with that. Also, the ending had me going DAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW for about ten minutes. Hopefully that's a good thing. #amwriting #writingcommunity #writer

Thank you! It's a fun story so far!

Hell yes! The love story section of the #WIP is coming along nicely. I was hoping this draft would be 90-95k, but I just hit 85 and I'm thinking it'll probably end 85-90. Still, I'm proud! About 75% of the way done with the love story! #amwriting #writingcommunity #writer

More work done on the #WIP today. Slowly but surely making my way through love story. I'm a little nervous that it won't expand the way I need it to, but we should be alright. Wish me luck. #amwriting #writer #writingcommunity

SO MUCH PROGRESS on the #WIP. This draft's up to 80k and almost ready for an alpha read. Once this draft is done, I'm gonna take a nice, long break from drafting. I'll be #amquerying and #pitching and maybe even #synopsis -ing, but no drafting for a while. #writingcommunity #writer #amwriting

Editing, editing, just sittin' here, editing. (And dogsitting. The puppers are absolutely terrible assistants, but I love them anyway) #writer #amwriting #writingcommunity

My headache is so bad this should say brain, not head. This is why editing is a no-go today lol

Was planning on doing some editing on the #WIP tonight, but my head is trying to explode out of my skull. Instead, setting alarms for #DVPit tomorrow and crossing my fingers. As always, I expect nothing, but hope there'll be a bit of success! Wish me luck, y'all. #amwriting #writingcommunity #writer

Thank you! I think it will! It needs a ton of expanding still, but the ending is way better than I was worried it'd be lol.
