I thought going back into the query trenches would negatively impact my anxiety. But I find that I am not as anxious this time around.

‘Buffy The Vampire Slayer’ and ‘Ted Lasso’ actor Anthony Head has died at the age of 72.

[Tish Stephens @thewritegirl_]

I am back researching so I can complete a WIP I paused months ago. My plan is to finish it within the next few month so I can start querying it.

@WritewithGemma Congratulations!

[Tish Stephens @thewritegirl_]

@DaSilvawrites Sorry you're having a rough go at it. Keep your head up.

[Tish Stephens @thewritegirl_]

I just received the nicest pass on a full. It hurts, but I still have hope.

i can’t use em dashes because apparently that’s an ai tell.
i can’t use questions because that’s an ai tell.
i can’t use an oxford comma because that’s an ai tell.
i can’t structure thoughts too neatly because that’s an ai tell.

at what point are writers allowed to just… write naturally again 😭

[Tish Stephens @thewritegirl_]

Morning moment of panic, being back in the trenches fearing my manuscript is dead. I love this story too much to let it go.
