Just an appreciation post for @tracierenee.bsky.social , because she just gave me feedback on my MS and WOW! She knows her stuff and her suggestions are like opening an early Christmas gift!

You know you’re old when you have to stretch before a writing session🫣

Everything hurts!

Just old…still cool😎
But, then again, maybe not…

A library book quite literally flew off the shelf when I passed it.

The voice is proof that AI didn’t write my story. None sound like this country girl.

More proof… the mistakes my critique partners find.

There are several fulls in the wild with “pee-a-boo” still in them 🫣

The publishing holiday hibernation is coming and agents must be working double time to clear their queries. I’ve had 3 passes and 2 full requests IN TWO DAYS!

No better time for a reading promotion poster project in Canva than the 67th day of school.

Book delivery! Collection development: analyze needs, read reviews, order, stamp, genrefy, catalog, promote, repeat ♻️

Oh, and teach all the classes 🤗

Today’s thoughts:
If I took my previous drafts and combined them, I could have a choose your own adventure style romance.

What should I read next? The day of Thanksgiving is for family and friends. The week off for Thanksgiving is going to be for reading a writing.

Just saw Nic Stone’s IG video of #kidlit authors discussing how they cook their greens. It reminded me of some wild things I’ve found while prepping mine—details in the comments.

What’s the weirdest thing you’ve ever found in your food?

I woke up to another pass and another full request. Balance for now, but this will tip in my favor, Query Tracker.

I’ve done something similar on the card catalog, but this is so much more engaging. I can already picture kids talking to each other about what would be good and making their own menus. Thanks for sharing @drtlovesbooks.bsky.social !
Setting up menus, para comes in w/ kids who need a work space. She sets them up, on her way back to class, sees menus. "Ooh, what are these?" Starts browsing. "Oh, my kid goes here, he'd love this book!" Sold a series b4 menus even finished!

It was New Signage Day in the library today!

First up, Book Menus!

Took me 2 years, but FINALLY getting book menus together! (Huge thanks to @melissacorey.bsky.social for sharing so many great templates!)

Do you sing your thoughts? What are some lyrics/thoughts you “sing” to yourself on the regular? Mine is
“What was I about to do…
I don’t know”

There are more, but this is the most played.

And now she’s finished, we have a video chat planned, AND I accidentally Face Timed her while I saved her number in my phone…at 5:00 AM my time/4:00 AM her time🫣 This is not what I meant when I said I couldn’t wait to hear what she thinks!

This rural writer just got home internet! I will not take it for granted.

Something so simple can have a big impact.

Today, I woke up to the 20th full request for my #romcom. Why does this make me nervous?

@brilawyer.bsky.social Just finished reading my #romcom novel and it is all I can do not to rent us a weekend getaway so we can talk about all the things.

I really need to win the lottery, so can have a CP retreat!

Another 🥂pass. It doesn’t give actionable advice, but it validates what works. And, I get not being able to give specific feedback. Maybe that’s why she passed. It would be hard to take on a story that’s almost ready, but you don’t know how to get it there. #amquerying #author #writingcommunity
