I found this to be a very helpful thread. Always wondering what is going through an agents mind when they open my query. #WritingCommmunity #amediting

I recently saw a person’s Twitter photo—a selfie taken in a grocery store, adult diapers discreetly in the background—and I can’t help but think “Who stops mid shopping and says…now’s a good time for a selfie.” No judgement, just thought it was funny #WritingCommmunity

I knew this thread would come in handy. #RevPit hopefuls are discouraged after not being selected. Don’t give up writers. I’m sure the editors would have picked more, but the prize is their free time and we have to respect they’re day job. I for one will be paying for a critique.

Such a surreal weekend. 5 full requests, 4 of them from agents at #MoodPitch 😭 I had shelved this book back in January. I’m so glad I revised it and gave it another shot. Don’t give up on your stories, friends 🧡

I LOVE this whole thread and though I didn’t submit to @joelbrigham this #RevPit, all of his threads have been so informative or encouraging. I love his positivity and with just this connection alone, I feel I’ve got so much out of this contest. #WritingCommunity
We all want to published, but that can't be where we find our joy in writing. For me, it's the art, and it's the people. Y'all are my people now, whether you "win" #RevPit or not. ~el fin~

I will trust a CP’s critique for days!!!! But I will ALWAYS question their compliments. It’s a problem… I’m working on it #WritingCommunity #RevPit #RevPitWaiting

My point. It’s Easter. For many it’s the day they worship Jesus Christ and His sacrifice. For them, His sacrifice gives life purpose. If you don’t believe in Christ/higher power—that is perfectly fine—but before making light of someone’s God, remember respect & kindness. 💜

I know everyone doesn’t believe the same as me. That’s great, I welcome diversity. But I wonder if the world be a lot kinder if when we didn’t agree with someone, we could respect each other rather than spew hateful , defensive and sarcastic comments? /

So here is a post: Recently, I read some posts that were offensive and quite honestly, hurtful. If you know me, you know compassion and empathy are my shield. I’m not perfect, but I try my hardest to be respectful, thoughtful and open minded to those who have different views/
