Queensland writers, is there a virtual stream for this year's Genrecon? I can't see it on the website. I'm not tripping, I definitely got a virtual ticket last year!

Sent a short story off for editorial feedback and omg the anxiety I felt before opening the email reply..! Even as an editor, being edited feels scary! (But it shouldn't. The feedback was kind, affirming and helpful... as it should be.)

Where are the aussie aspiring/emerging writers at? I'd love to follow your journey from first line to launch party. Still in drafting stage of my wip and looking for inspo and connections... especially the whole writing around work/life/needy small people situation... 💕📚 #writingcommunity #writersky

Hi, I'm Jess. I'm a qualified editor with an honest but gentle touch. I'm so excited to get back into editing after a couple of years raising babies, and would love to help make your story the best it can be. I'm also an aspiring author, so I know how it feels to put your words out there.

Ugh. Was really enjoying the indie authors scene on Threads but got my account disabled twice for being 'fake' (while using my real name, real photo, account linked to my personal social media... 🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️) with no ability to appeal or contact a person. The mind boggles. Anyway, here's to bluer skies!
