My sister is trending on TikTok. She's a divorce mediator: LoveByLee. Nothing writing related, but still cool If anything, it shows how she found her voice and her target audience.

Crap! Just got another full request, but I just started pulling apart my mss based on (valid) feedback on the last full request!

Give me rejections over teenagers everyday!

Go figure. Made my day to see 2 form rejections in my inbox. The way I see it, it's a numbers game (trying to ignore the luck bit. Takes the fun out of it) and my rejection numbers are growing. Time to query my next batch!

I'm thankful to know that even if my full is rejected, I'll receive feedback (presuming all is well). I've been twitter-stalking:

Just got a full request from a New York agent. I know many MS get rejected at this stage. Just nice to be asked by Bookends.

I bought an apartment! Sorry, I've been sporadic lately: househunting/packing. Will go dark for the next few weeks as I move etc. But I'll try drop in to read. Just won't have much time to respond...

Our whippet has deteriorated over the past two weeks. The vet hasn't confirmed it, but this is so aggressive. It's cancer. Off to end her suffering today

Just pre-ordered Spare by Prince Harry. Probably apt title but not very memorable (at least I keep forgetting it, lol)

Update: my son finished Project Hail Mary and loved the ending (it's a damn fine ending)

A small win - my son has been reading Andy Weir's Project Hail Mary slowly, but he just hit 50% and made a point of telling me he's really enjoying it now

Lord of the Rings fans, have you seen the new Rings of Power on Amazon Prime? I'm not a diehard fan, so maybe that's why I found it awesome. I'd love to know what diehard fans thought.

Hubby is cautious. He's worried about my breathing (thx to Covid). Waiting for my say so to call ambulance. Bloody tricky call. I can't see medical professionals who don't deal with my rare kind of stroke understanding how it's every muscle and organ, on my right side, that's weaker. That includes the throat.

Ebooks users, have you seen z library? 5 free downloads a day. You don't have to join. I find it easiest to download on my Ipad or Iphone. I've been using it to download physical books I've bought and can no longer use.

My book is such a hot mess, it's hard not to freak. I try to calm myself and think, this is just developmental editing (which I'd thought I'd done, but no, not enough), but geez it's hard! Anyone else find that?

I met a lady today who'd been in a major car accident, had breast cancer, and had 4 brain tumours. I feel like her experiences are a reminder to write faster.

Good news, the books I thought stolen years ago just ended up with my daughter! I'd never considered that possibility, lol!
