I'd like to make a poster, and I was wondering if yall could share 1 fave scene or a quote from POISONS. I'm going to add every response that comes by way to the poster. Just as a reminder that POISONS did have a community of people who loved it. 🥹 I'd appreciate it. #booksky #blacksky

Sometimes, the best thing for your book is time away. I set this WIP aside for months because something just wasn't clicking, and I was writing with frustration. Rereading what I have now? I love it with fresh eyes. And new ideas are finally turning. Sometimes you just have to let it breathe

🥾 🏕️ WELCOME TO DAY 2 OF QUERY BOOTCAMP 🏕️ 🥾 Why is a synopsis important? It shows you can write a complete story that doesn’t take any awkward turns or have any giant plot holes. It also shows that you’ll deliver on the promise of the premise in your query, so make sure it faithfully represents.

Good morning, #CampRevPit! 🏕️ Today, please draw us your #CampMap: Use a visual metaphor to describe where you are with your project. Are you lost in the woods? Climbing a mountain? Sailing the seven seas?
On a grassy green hill beneath a starry night sky, the firefly clings to a branch and dangles a tied stack of story notes from a  stick with the label “Darlings” written on the top page. The caterpillar reaches for the tied bundle of notes with mouth wide open, ready to chow down. Behind the tree, which still has bite marks from the caterpillar’s previous meal, the mantis holds her claws to her face in dismay. Dawn is beginning to tint the horizon red. The image has the text: Day 2: #CampMap

A well-fed green caterpillar sits on a little hill to the right of the screen, eating a pile of pages labeled with the words “story notes.” On the left, a Camp RevPit flag waves at the end of a flagpole.
