#ABCPit #CampRevPit #Crplunamoths I'm seeking beta readers for my queer YA romantasy novel Sky Dreams (77k). It's a low fantasy that features a queer Filipino American teen with narcolepsy. I'm also looking for critique partners for other projects. I write Queer YA/adult romance/romantasy.

Ooh, this sounds cool/up my alley! I'm doing a queer YA romantasy set in a Midwest high school. I'd be down to beta swap/be critique partners at some point. ๐Ÿ˜Š

#CampRevPit #CRPLunaMoths I decided on "Skylar" mostly because I liked the name and the play on words I could do with "sky" and dreaming. Same reasoning for Skylar's love interest "Damien," though now I'm realizing the name's meaning is perfect for the character.

I feel like it'd be cool to chat as a cabin about how we write romance/sex scenes (or don't write them) because I can commiserate. First kiss scenes are also hard I feel like.

#CampRevPit #crplunamoths #CampfireConfessions I've struggled a lot with revision and feedback. Overtime I've learned what feedback is useful and to prioritize vs. feedback that I feel comes from a good place (or maybe not in some cases) and may not be useful for revision.

#CampRevPit #CRPLunaMoths I'm going to revise my first five pages based on the great feedback I've gotten and keep at it with querying. I'm getting a break from my day job (just need to grade lol), so gonna send out more queries this month.

Is it 1? Because I hope 2 and 3 happen lol.

This is hard. I appreciate breaking the rules for 1. Is 2 the lie?

Good guess. 1 actually is true. It's 3 that's the lie.

#CampRevPit #CRPLunaMoths Crippling existential dread and the state of our world. But more concretely my teaching job and also having to write professionally for that and wanting to do literally everything else but revise.

What age group do you mostly teach? But tell me about it. I love teaching too, but it can be draining.

I just got into audiobooks. Had a six hour drive, so it was nice to have it in the background while driving.

#crplunamoths This is a hard one. I feel like my MC can't live without his best friend Ally.

Love the accountability thread. I have day job stuff I need to catch up on (commenting on student writing). But I plan on reviewing feedback on my first five pages and query materials this weekend. Revision/editing is so rough.

#CRPLunaMoths "He worried about whether or not his parents would eventually accept him for being gay. He worried about the Dream World about Damien really loving him. He worried about never being able to go through another day like a normal person. But then again what was normal?"
