Our Anthology title list is finished! After the death of the best pup in the world derailed our first kickstarter, A-lister Rey fucked off to Paris for the summer. Will he resurface? Who knows, but Lemana Filandra Muslic started as the Editorial Director of the rising Three Dragons Press and brought motivation and energy. This position is her DREAM JOB! So I can introduce you to my experience working with her on this, but FIRST let me introduce our AMAZING novel length anthology: Katie Marie —

I am really happy with the preliminary final list. Such a broad variety of writers! We're so grateful for the interest and the patience of everyone waiting to hear and move forward. For this reason We're going with polished stories. Some of my favorite stories require too much editing. 💔 💙📚

Sending some rejections to submissions for anthology, I am not using form rejections. We tell the writers what would have made the story stronger for us. No idea how they received it, but at least we give them some way to maje the writing better. 📚💙

We had our first official acquisition meeting. With three briefings plus a memoir meeting we're setting up. We scheduled a chat with the agent from one. We know exactly how we need to dissect the two full manuscripts to create an editorial strategy for each. Getting ramped up & enjoying the steps

One of our first acquisition opportunities (outside personal networks) came via a major agency. The book’s already Big 5–published abroad… but raises big questions: cultural authenticity or appropriation? Did they miss it? 💙📚

The Story of Tegan: Chapter 4 Covergence
2012 was the year all of these things converged into some difficult times. It was a year after the Gemini doctor. In the fall of 2011, my connection with a guy from the US team I'd had a crush on since I was 20 and had a slow-burn friendship heated up. Even he disappointed me, saying he was going to visit, then using work as an excuse to cancel, even though he did travel to meet up with friends elsewhere instead. After a full year of putting myself back out there and connecting with a number of

Agents say they want “voice” — but most can’t handle flinty. Not loud, not cruel. Just sharp. Direct. No performance. If it sparks discomfort, good. That’s fire. That’s presence. That’s mine. #amwriting #writerlife #voice 💙📚

Now THIS is linguistic mastery I expect to see by a top writer! This woman starts with deep visual images, moves to a series of otomatapea phrases. Then repetitive the to of "so was in der Art" sentences. Demonstrating mastery of language w ZERO similes or metaphors. Freakin A! 📚💙 #WritingCommunity

Ran into another woman from the startup networking who is super on top of #Booktok and how excited they will be when I succeed. She wished German publishers would come together to do something similar. We'll see next year when I join their accelerator. Going to be an interesting #start-up ride 📚💙

WOW! A crazy few weeks. Mental health crisis, during which I attended a mentor matching event, losing my phone. Been off since pup died. Lost a pitch comp round, didn't get a mentor. Today they gave me a tech prof at the business school as a mentor. Grateful for graciousness! 😭

We'll call the new woman my life Grrrr (inside joke). We're talking since six weeks before pup died which means 2.5 months now. She's challenging me to see the world differently in ways that work out. It's clear this could get serious. My therapist is loving it

I had a story sent to me with a "complicated villain" except it was angels and demons invading earth, so it was really an alien invasion story. When I gave them an example of a complicated villain, they had a meltdown. So not opposed, if it's a better story....

I took time last week to grieve such a one of a kind dog, because momentum is building fast for my startup concept. Eventually it was deadlines this week that got me out of bed and back to work, because they could not be put off. At the same time, I have had this sadness and disappointment that after the support from Tegan during the last years of feeling lost searching for my career direction, I thought she would be here with me to enjoy the momentum that this new direction is taking, and this
