You might find it helpful to look at The Manuscript Academy website. They have live events with agents where you can ask those exact questions. Lots of online seminars and trainings. Good resource :). You might also find the podcast The Shit No One Tells You About Writing helpful (hosted by agents!)

Love my LED light for shifting the mood when I write. What mood does purple bring?

I was just listening to an episode of The First Draft Club podcast where the author who creates it talks about when critiques are destructive. What you went through makes me think of that. Great podcast!

Wasn't it fun? Red shirts was also good, if you're a Scalzi fan! Dungeon Crawler Carl also had a great talking cat named "Princess Donut." I'm not a gamer, but I totally enjoyed that book. The cat reminded me of Hera from Starter Villain :)

"Eliminate" that's extreme! Everything has a place, exposition too!

Coming June 2025 at Polymath Press, BRIGHT CITY, SHATTERED is a sci-fi mystery novella set in a fictional city that feels like a character itself. #PosterPit #PosterPitP #SF #M #A

A pitch in the format of a movie poster, with a picture of a woman looking to her left, her face not visible. The background is a blurry image of a building at night. The scene makes it look like she is about to go into the building. At the top of the poster, above the book's title, are text vignettes reading "retro futurism" "murder mystery" and "isolated city". Below the title is a brief description of the plot that reads "Bright City never sleeps, thanks to C3’s luma-powered electricity.
When C3 CEO's niece is found dead on the company’s premises, the investigation is botched. Only Reine, C3’s new head of security, seeks the truth—even if it means risking her job, her reputation, and her freedom."

With a cover like this, how can you not read it? Had to give this book a shout. Cheeks were literally aching from endurance smiling. Stay hydrated as you read. Laughing till you cry can otherwise leave you desiccated like a prune!

Taking a moment to honor Michael Spring, founder of Flowstone Press, who published two of my poetry collections. His final poem written before his passing was just published at Pedestal Magazine. Incredible heart & talent. thepedestalmagazine.com/michael-spri...
