#literaryagents #questpit #posterpit Unfortunately no likes for this fresh take on a beloved Jamaican myth, but it's never too late - right?

@NatalieO73314 Keeping my fingers crossed and kudos - it's a difficult slog at times.

No electricity in Negril Westmoreland, came back at 3am, gone again at 6am @myjpsonline We had all day outage last Sunday - all this before the storms start!!

Yeah man, the change has to start somewhere. We should have beautiful boulevards everywhere, but there would have to be maintenance by municipal entities - private sector involvement could work too, sponsorships, etc

I live for the day when we start addressing the low-lying fruits in Jamaica. Simple things like how our highways, sidewalks and gullies look. Why the main roads full of dry up bush and grass? We can't plant some bougainvillea along them and mek the place look like somewhere?

@courtneyannw At least sometimes - depending on the terrain.

@dmccaulay @RSLiterature Love this. Congratulations on your book and the win. I hope this leads to even greater interest in Caribbean writers - perhaps even for my liccle River Mumma story 🇯🇲

@DrewWMcDowell That feeing you get when you read that the agent you just queried rarely replies in under 300 days😢

@Kumo_KD Hi there 👋

[Ana @anabrun32]

Eu nunca fui de expor nossas dores aqui.
Mas hoje eu preciso tentar.
Meu filho convive com dermatite atópica crônica desde que nasceu. Não é “uma alergiazinha”. É dor, feridas, pele machucada, sangramento de tanto coçar, noites sem dormir e um sofrimento diário que acompanha ele há anos.
Tem dias que ele chora de desespero por não conseguir parar de se coçar.
Pra manter a pele minimamente controlada, usamos cerca de 2 potes de CeraVe 473ml POR SEMANA. E mesmo assim, em muitas crises, precisamos recorrer aos hidratantes calmantes e especiais, que custam ainda mais caro.
Além disso, o uso excessivo de corticoides ao longo da vida trouxe consequências pesadas: meu filho desenvolveu catarata. Já passou por cirurgia em um olho e agora vai operar o outro. São remédios, colírios, consultas, tratamentos… e tudo vai acumulando.
Eu não estou fazendo esse post pra pedir dinheiro.
De verdade.
Só queria pedir que vocês me ajudassem marcando a @CeraVeBrasil e @cerave , compartilhando e comentando nesse post. Talvez, com alcance, eles enxerguem a história do meu filho e possam ajudar com os hidratantes que são essenciais pra qualidade de vida dele.
Já tentamos contato antes, mas o processo era tão difícil que acabamos desistindo no meio do caminho.
Então hoje estou apelando pra internet.
Pra empatia.
Pra humanidade.
Porque às vezes o que parece “só um creme” pra algumas pessoas… é o que permite que meu filho consiga dormir sem dor.
Se puder compartilhar, eu vou ser eternamente grata. 🤍

I didn't know this family a week ago. But some stories grab you by the chest and won't let go. I've been in contact with the mother directly. Multiple times now.
Here's the latest.

@TJHall81 Unfortunately it’s something we have to live with. I’ve had many, many of those - it helped a bit removing the word rejection and just saying/writing pass.

@DaSilvawrites Great news your hard work is paying off 😀

[morticia @jadetroi]

And as morning light people in the population a guzzle this down. Then have a bun / biscuit as a snack and maybe a tang wid ten spoon a sugar to wash down dinner

[ALFoot is always writing or editing @ALFootWrites]

@jadetroi I will never understand why there aren't more low/no sugar drinks available here - only no sugar coke and 7up and that's it! These can help wean people off the sugar laden choices.

PLEASE STOP USE THE OREO CRUMBS TO FIX THE ROADS!!!! @NestaJA

After trying for the past month get my old account back, I've at last been forced to start a new account.

I'd like to apologize first to everyone who might have been affected by the hackers' actions on my account.

Please take me back!
