Went on submission yesterday! Milestone reached, but my focus is all on my third wip. Goal remains unachieved - to make these books real for kids who might need them. Works not done yet #WritingCommunity

[Jesse Chen @JesseChenBooks]

@stefanyvramirez This is an awesome idea! Would be down :)

[Jesse Chen @JesseChenBooks]

@hannakimwrites I'd love to! Let me know if you have space :)

[Jesse Chen @JesseChenBooks]

Break from revision hiatus to say good luck to #PitchWars hopefuls! Friendly reminder: results say nothing about the strength of your book and all your hard work. The probability is less than cold querying.

If anyone wants feedback on their submission materials, dm me.

Maybe it's just the weather, but I've been feeling extra antsy lately, like I'm stuck in a rut. Anxious to make #writing progress, but it's slow going.

If you're feeling the same way, it's okay. It'll get better. Just need to hang on until the clouds pass.

@jloughranauthor Awesome! Congrats Joe :)

[Jesse Chen @JesseChenBooks]

@stefanyvramirez Four right now! A huge snake plant and a yuzu tree :D how about you?

[Jesse Chen @JesseChenBooks]

Slowly surrounding myself with more plants. Each one boosts my writing power by 10%, I swear. Happy Friday, and happy #writing!

[Jesse Chen @JesseChenBooks]

Me in the shower: Oh! What a sick idea! In book 3, it would be so cool if x would happen, it would tie everything together, and-

Also me: Dude, you're on first draft of book 1.

@Danaiwrites In another life, they would've been the hero

Happy Tuesday! I wrote a short piece reflecting on life, inspired by the NYC subway system. If nothing else, look at the bolding takeaways at the bottom. Wishing you good words, as always :)

@nova_mcbee Hey Nova! :D :D I'm there, just postless hahaha

[Jesse Chen @JesseChenBooks]

I've reached the point in my draft where I'm acutely aware of how much I'll need to change in revision. My to-do list is 20 items long.

I can't wait :D

[Jesse Chen @JesseChenBooks]

There's just something about waking up on a Friday and eyeing your word count, knowing it's going to go up soon. Bliss.

Happy weekend everyone! Good words to you~ #WritingCommunity #writing

[Jesse Chen @JesseChenBooks]

@ChyinaP That’s so horrible… I’m so sorry

[Jesse Chen @JesseChenBooks]

@Amandabadillo25 Last stretch! You got this :D

[Jesse Chen @JesseChenBooks]

I finally got around to compiling some advice about things to do before you start writing a book. Things I definitely should've done. Most of you are querying, but it'll still be applicable for your next one, #WritingCommunity.

Happy Wednesday!
