I’m so excited to join the #writingcommmunity here in Twitter! I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember, but just recently became serious about it. I have several #picturebooks and one #adult book but my heart is in #ya #scifi #fantasy
Currently I #amwriting #amediting

@KRTawlks I am very loosely doing it! I’d love to finish my novella this month 😊 But with my season of life, my goal is just to write more during NaNaWriMo!

[Cacey Malone @CaceyMalone]

@swelawrence I wrote 3 stories in high school, but IDK how long it took me. The first draft of my first real novel, probably 6-ish years from when I first thought of the premis and knew I needed to write it 😅 I didn’t read or watch anything about writing until I finished that draft though.

4yo David has always known he was adopted - he looks different from the rest of his family. But this Christmas David learns that he was adopted as an embryo and what that means as they decorate their Christmas tree with wooden snowflakes.

@MindyAlyseWeiss That’s exciting! I’ve added the #PBParty to my calendar.

BOOK OF ELI+GENDER GAMES
Intrepid teen siblings trust their instinct & intellect while navigating a violent, gang-ruled world.

When Momma's kidnapped, they warily turn to strangers from a glass city, but reckless hearts & dark politics put more lives at stake.

4yo David has always known he was adopted - you can tell just by looking at his family. But this Christmas David learns that he was adopted as an embryo and what that means as his family decorates their Christmas tree with wooden snowflakes.

A boy with a half-finished curse.

A warlock from San Francisco.

Giant beasts from the south.

And a secret, if exposed, that could crumble a grieving family...

Or give them the strength to save the day.

@CathyTRicardo Maybe they’re just really happy with their client list and only want authors who really want to work with them 🤷‍♀️ Anyway, thanks for answering!

[Cacey Malone @CaceyMalone]

This may be a dumb question, but when an agent says they’ll only accept exclusive queries does that mean they’re the only agent with that query? Or just the only agent in their agency?

@colbybettley I’d love to trade retweets!

[Cacey Malone @CaceyMalone]

@AR_Geiger This is a fun question! I haven’t ever thought about it. Not sure if this is a trope, but I love it when someone has to make a big sacrifice for others. I think that’s in most of my writing!

[Cacey Malone @CaceyMalone]

@AR_Geiger No one asking me questions 😆 I do need soft background music with no words on. It helps my mind stay focused on what I’m working on. So I guess the specific space.

[Cacey Malone @CaceyMalone]

@rohan_oduill I’ve been through at least 60 and only 2 have stood out to me that they could be a good fit. I do have a list of about 20 who *might* work, but still it’s a little disheartening.

[Cacey Malone @CaceyMalone]

Building my agent list to query 🤯 Is querying any easier? Anyone else working on their list and their brain feels like it might explode?

@fasterhorses @Reveal_House Good to know I’m not the only one!
