I created a giant novel planning board with the principals of Save the Cat on Canva and my teacher/author heart could explode! I have my next novel plotted, but you’d better believe I’m moving it. 🤓

My life:

Teacher=sense of urgency and immediate, intentional response

Author= sense of deliberation and slow, careful consideration

Both require patience… a lot of patience

Querying? I hope this is helpful! Whether you use Sheets, Excel, or another tool, staying organized is important. Here’s how I do it. You can add more columns, but I like to keep it simple and easy to reference. #amquerying #writingcommunity #author

2/2 🧵Honestly it’s funny because even w/o the responses I was expecting I’m over here like, “ I mean no one has time to look at all of those in one night.” And when I say that I think this is hilarious, I’m not being self deprecating or sarcastic…this is a perspective I find joy in🤣 #amquerying

I’ve mentioned before that I have a sense of delusional optimism when it comes to my writing. Here’s the perfect example: I went to bed after all my #DVPit posts were up just knowing I would wake up to a lot of activity this morning 🤣. 1/2 🧵
