But if you *do* feel inclined to follow me elsewhere I'm RCagz on most thingsβοΈ (incl. Instagram/TikTok)

@StasiaWrites I haven't watched the show since maybe mid-Capaldi's series and this whole scene felt like it was dripping in pure RTD era energy. Also hope they bring him back!
@GWRHelp Have booked the 4.45pm train from Penzance to London and seeing lots of cancellations already due to staff shortages. Is it likely any issues will be cleared by the time I travel? Or will I have to use alternative routes?
@notsoquietgrrl Definitely depends on the agent/writer relationship, and how developed your novel is. Some agents are very hands off, some will help you fully edit. Generally I'd say I see more agent involvement in debuts cause you're still figuring stuff out & a second set of eyes is helpful.
