Yesterdays meeting with my amazing dev editor @MichelleEllise has me on track to get my next book rolling! Writing a book is a solitary experience but it’s not something we do without support! #WritingCommmunity shoutout to my group #teamLCTFL
A little reminder for the new followers that I'm mostly silent on this platform but am putting out DAILY content about writing, editing, publishing, and all things bookish over here:

I keep a list of industry folks who freelance edit + critique, over on the ol' website.
@KatWithSword + @Bibliogato have done amazing work with clients of mine, and @MichelleEllise recently did a huge edit for one of MY books.
Hope it's a good resource. https://t.co/zYiasUHnpf
I get asked for this list pretty often, so here's a quick share... industry folks + authors who offer up query to manuscript critiques.
Highly recommend @Bibliogato @KatWithSword @theames and @MichelleEllise, I've seen their work first hand! https://t.co/zYiasUHnpf
@mikechenwriter I'd try these: Grady Hendrix (Horrorstor, How to Sell a Haunted House), Josh Malerman (Bird Box, The House at the Bottom of the Lake), Paul Tremblay (Devil's Rock, A Head Full of Ghosts, Growing Things).
WRITERS! I am closing to queries on June 11th! Check out my wishlist and submission guidelines at the link below, and get those queries in. Thanks!

Now this is the kind of enthusiasm I needed to start the day off right!
If you're just as excited to get your book ready for submission, I'm currently booking September/October edit spots and I'd love to hear from you!
If you’re loving The Last of Us and want more end of the world journeys with found families and big emotions, might I suggest these two?

A heads up for the #WritingCommunity that I'm currently booking editorial services for Summer 2023, with limited availability. If you're hoping for a developmental/substantive edit or editorial assessment before the fall, reach out soon!

Listen: self-pub is expensive because *you* are footing the bill that publishers normally cover. That means *you* are essentially the publisher, and in order to compete with trad books, *you* will likely need to spend money. We can all sit here and cry about unfairness...
