It's incredibly late, but I am also very grateful to @kelleyeditorial.bsky.social and @hannaneier.bsky.social for their great feedback for #revpit and #10queries. I was lucky enough to get picked twice! If you are considering paying for a critique, I'd certainly check them out!
I need to tidy my kitchen and get to work on some admin and journaling!
I have ✨inbox things✨ expected today!!

LOL just now realizing through #CampRevPit that I formatted my first five pages wrong for my #RevPit submission. Okay, retroactive embarrassment!!! Let’s live with this forever!!! 😂😂🫣🫣😭😭🥲🥲🤡🤡🤪🤪 look away, fellow Foxes. I shan’t even tag you so don’t have to look on my shame. 😂😂😂
Damn, no emails from my last editor pick on the #revpit #10queries
I know not to take it personal and prepared myself for this outcome for how competitive it is. Saying that, my heart is a little heavy. I wish I knew why I keep failing
I'm grateful for the friends I've met that kept me grounded

All of my #10Queries emails have been sent! I hope the feedback was helpful and thank you all for your submissions to #RevPit 2026. 🥰
The dust settles on #RevPit
And I find out my manuscript DESERT STARS was featured on @nicolefrailedits.bsky.social 's #10queries AND longlisted :)
Nicole's feedback on my work was v helpful, so I recommend using that RevPit discount and getting some feedback on your materials ;)
All my emails for those who sent in their submissions to me for the #RevPit annual contest and my #10Queries have been sent. If anyone has not received an email from me, please let me know. And I hope that you all will benefit from my little freebie. looking forward to hearing from you too.
I've left the parking lot and I'm making my way down a wide path on a nice leisurely hike to a beautiful look out point. I have a clear map of where I'm going, I just need to walk

Hi Amelia! #CampRevPit is a community event for writers after #RevPit finishes. Its full of fun prompts sorted into cabins which are based on genres. There are also different critique swaps you can sign up for. @reviseresub.bsky.social
#CRPSugarGliders - I know it’s not scheduled but if anyone’s around, I’m starting a two hour writing sprint. Just letting you know, if you’re writing, you’re not alone! 💕

Guys what is #Revpit and is camp still available? 🥲
Hello fellow Sirens. I'm Sara. Originally from MI, I write adult cont. rom. but my current WIP is more new adult and is a strangers-to-friends-to-lovers, found family, sports adjacent MS.
From #CRPSirens I hope to form connections w/ other writers and polish my WIP for the querying trenches.

Feeling heartened to have been shortlisted for #revpit. My favorite part of this has been connecting with other writers and joining #camprevpit. Thanks @hannaneier.bsky.social for your helpful feedback and all of the editors who spearhead revpit!

Ways I distracted myself this weekend while I await my #RevPit edits from @dcmdraper.bsky.social:
✨Girls’ trip
♦️Lost card games
📖Read by a lake
🎉 Was hyped up to create more writer social content
🍳Ate Hibachi
✍🏻Started my agent list for LUST-BORN
❤️Felt gratitude to have such friends as these
Ready or not…
Who’s joining me for camp #revpit??
Gearing up for #revpit, feeling like a newbie over here on Bluesky. I swear I’ve social media-ed before so going to blame my boomer-esque engagement on being postpartum )an excuse I can play for the rest of my life). In the meantime here’s another recent #woodflower handpainted arrangement!
This is going to be a busy editing week working on my #RevPit winner’s book, chatting with authors on calls, and doing other Amethyst Ink client work. I’m so ready. 💜💎
#CampRevPit is an extension of #RevPit, & if you sign up for a cabin, there’s prompts & activities with your cabinmates. I’ll be revising, but others might be at different stages of their novels
There’s also critique (or positivity) swaps. Just depends on what authors signed up for
if you're wondering what a typical Saturday looks like for this author / editor:
👟 move body (AM workout w/ sis)
✔️ chores / errand run (target & laundry)
🍽️ eat lunch (leftovers)
✒️ revision time (Adult F project, due in 2 wks)
📝 edit time - #RevPit edits for @katiebhudson.bsky.social today!
(1/2)
Also, if you're in my cabin, expect an email this weekend with onboarding stuff! I'm currently setting up the Bluesky feed for our activities. ✨

So glad I joined #RevPit this year! I got a second editor email that really made a difference in how I am thinking about my query and hook!
A teal watercolor background with an apple on it. Text: "2026 Revpit winner CIDER SEASON. She'll risk anything to save her cidery. What will she risk for love?"
CIDER SEASON | An upmarket contemporary romcom set in a struggling cider company featuring a hot-headed forklift-driving FMC and a people-pleasing MMC who irons his khakis, erm, sorry, his *trousers*.
Currently revising for #revpit. Sub-ready in 8wks.

#LL&MM: So many things have happened in the last 2 weeks! We got beta feedback that prompted us to make some characterization changes. #RevPit finished, freeing us up to make BIGGER changes. We're changing up the back end, possibly even entering the story at a new spot. Lotsa excitement!
#WriteSky
#revpit is over. Normal life starts again (sort of).
Diving back into revisions and polishing my imperfections... ✍️✨

Last year, I was thrilled to have a #10queries for my stem rom com. This year, I had 2 #10queries and was long listed for another editor for my historical romance. Maybe next year, I can keep this momentum going for #revpit 27?
