    They spent more money on administration costs to issue this. It's shameless, inhumane, & cruel.

    Have you ever typed a whole response to someone, perfectly explaining your point & why they're wrong, but then just thought F it and deleted your text without sending it?!

    No offense to any agent, but I like this comment someone made on Query Tracker "If you judged LOTR by the first five pages of The Fellowship of the Ring, you'd think it was a story about a short rich guy adopting a cousin who shared his birthday so they could celebrate together."
    I must admit, I find the whole 5-page thing a bit frustrating, as well. Especially when you're talking about genres like sci-fi and fantasy, in the first 5 pages, you're just introducing one, perhaps two characters, and you're not even close to the inciting incident that really sets the ball rolling. It's kind of like a movie critic walking into a theater, seeing "A long time ago in a galaxy far far away..." followed by the title card and then getting up and walking out of the theater to write their opinion about the movie. My novel is the first in a trilogy story, so it's even more of a complication. If you judged LOTR by the first five pages of "The Fellowship of the Ring", you'd think it was a story about a short rich guy adopting a cousin who shared his birthday so they could celebrate together.

    What's the point of writing & publishing a good novel if people don't want that kind of books? Wouldn't it better if I could write popular instead of good? These thoughts have been consuming my mind. Please don't give me your "motivational speech", let's be honest for a moment.

    Can't wait until your U.S. election is over, so my feed goes back to the usual cat photos and writer's block lamentations! 🙏

    I just got a form rejection from an agent I really cared about. I know it isn't personal, but it hurts all the same. Then I checked Twitter & realized I lost a follower! #WritingCommunity, I don't want to seem desperate, but it would mean a lot to get another follower.
    My black shorthaired cat rolled on the floor as if dead!

    No offense, but I'm not trusting any account with less than a thousand followers claiming to be a "Bestselling Author"!

    People think writers' search histories are full of inappropriate topics we research for our stories. But honestly, 90% of it is just questions like "Do ants crawl?" or "What was the cheapest metal in the Victorian era?"
