@scriblotta That sounds like a solid plan. Grounded fantasy really shines when the details are tight, so getting early feedback is a smart move.
If you’re open to it, I can take a quick look at a few pages for you.
@joannenwrites Sorry, querying is tough right now, it’s often just a matter of sharpening the pitch. I enjoy professional editing because it lets me dive into unique genre blends like yours.
Would you be open to a professional set of eyes on your first few pages to help build some momentum?
@joannenwrites It sounds like you’ve found your niche in those complex, humorous characters. There’s definitely a market for romance with a dark edge if you ever decide to blend them, but there’s no shame in sticking to your strengths. Do you have any WIP projects?
@juliepie76 I totally feel that, editing hell is real, but it’s where the magic actually happens! I love professional editing because diving into all those different worlds is what I enjoy most.
How many stories are in the collection?
@JenniferJe58626 Spot on. The "Publish" button is just the beginning; building a real audience is where the heavy lifting starts. What genre do you write?
@KBCox_15 That kind of resilience is what actually makes a writer. Coming back with a project you truly love after a tough year is a huge win. What genre do you write?
