Do any of my fellow Type A Creatives ever get hit with a killer writing idea while in the midst of querying one novel and writing another and experience a massive internal struggle because you HAVE TO CHECK THE CHECKBOX but you also HAVE TO OUTLINE THIS IMMEDIATELY? No? Just me?
Currently soliciting all the good manuscript vibes the writing community has got as I hit send on another full.
Fun fact, since looking it over from the one I sent last week, I realized I misspelled “the” in the first paragraph. 🤦🏼♀️
These nerves be nerving.
Yes! I am newer to this subscription but this one is so spot on. I told a friend this felt like seeing myself (but as an agent)
Loved this post on insecurity in agenting from @jennaschmenna.bsky.social substack! There is so much insecurity during querying, it is easy to get tunnel vision and forget that both sides of the coin are human. Highly recommend this read. #WritingCommunity

That moment after sending out a full request is so full of possibility. I am reveling in the hope (and a healthy dose of nerves). Wish me luck!
#amquerying #writingcommunity
It has definitely been a bright point!
Eek! Work has been so busy I neglected the “fun” email - but bonus for turning today into a #fullrequestFriday!

Hey #writer friends, do you tend to write in the same genre time and time again, or do you hop around? Have you noticed this impacting your querying efforts at all?

@thomasgannon.bsky.social love the bio!
Congrats!!!
Bridgerton Doodles!
Can’t stop, won’t stop!
I’m in the midst of pivoting between querying my #a #gothic #thriller and working on my new #a #romcom. What better way to get in the right headspace than doodling the swoon-worthy promo shots from the latest Bridgerton first look?

Wouldn’t it be nice to know if it WOULD sell though?! Imagine. 🤯
Thanks for taking questions! I have one — Is it welcome to work in mention of film interest from a producer into a query letter, knowing there are no guarantees either way? Better to leave out entirely?
Can I just say how awesome the writing community is over here on 🦋 It feels so welcoming compared to past social media experiences — maybe this time I’ll stick around! 🤪

Oooh! Good luck in the trenches! I try to keep myself distracted during querying by barreling ahead with my WIP too! (This time a pivot from my gothic thriller back to my lighter RomCom era)
“Wow, I really liked it! Like, amazing liked it!”
“Wait, we have to wait HOW LONG?”
“I can feel her singing inside my heart!” ❤️ (Defying Gravity)
“Why is she sad? Are they saying goodbye?” 🥹
“What does gravity mean?”
“I guess those [Morrible & Wizard] are the real bad guys”
