Rewatched @JordanPeele’s Us this weekend with my son, who saw it for the first time, and I’d forgotten about the twist ending. It was nice to be surprised again. Still a great film!

So glad I picked up a copy of Memorials by @RichardChizmar. The perfect book to read this month. 🎃

My read for the week. Can’t wait to delve into these tales of horror. @penguinrandom @JordanPeele

@pippawestauthor Same here. And then I’m afraid to nudge for fear they will decide to say no 😬

This feels suspiciously like a very clever marketing ploy…

Nothing makes you feel more like an imposter than when you’re querying literary agents.

“Being a professional author isn't the easiest job—the highs can be very high, but the lows can be soul crushing. However, it is by far the best job I've ever had.”

Some inspiration here from one of the best writers working today.

To write under a pen name or not? There were many things to consider, and this essay - like the novel #AuthorLife - is a peek into the publishing process.

What a treat to finally get to see Mr. Mercedes and discover Holly Gibney’s origins. Then a friend gifting me a copy of The Outsider to read. And now rewatching HBO’s stunning adaptation. This is some of SK’s @StephenKing stuff!

[Dylan Ward @dylanwardwriter]

Can’t wait to delve into this haunting read by @TananariveDue!

[Dylan Ward @dylanwardwriter]

@zooshka I hope to attend Stokercon one day. And I love how humble you are!

[Dylan Ward @dylanwardwriter]

Enjoying this beguiling, gem of a novel by Kenan Organ @fsgbooks.

@ocumeghalu Keep at it! I just sent my first batch of queries a week ago, so I’m only in the beginning of what will no doubt be a long process. But hopefully you have other things to keep you happy and focused and that you are still writing! Good luck. 🍀

[Dylan Ward @dylanwardwriter]

@bymallorymcd Just curious - how did you get this image? Is it from QueryTracker or made with something else? Congrats, by the way! 🎉

[Dylan Ward @dylanwardwriter]

Discovered a new author this weekend. Above the Fire by Michael O’Donnell from @BlackstoneAudio is amazingly good!

[Dylan Ward @dylanwardwriter]

Well this is stunning writing here by @criveragarza. A true work of powerful and magnificent art.
