@Sarah_Nicolas Although I’m sorry for them, this is an easy way to cut the weak “aspiring” writers from the herd—what they are aspiring to exactly is another question. I read 50+ books a year in all genres and it’s one of my greatest pleasures. Writers blow my mind!!! So *much* talent.

@KarenMusings What a fantastic project!

@LillianJClark I am currently being blown away by “Patsy.” I’ve never read anything like it and I can’t even figure out how she is accomplishing what she is doing in this novel.

Just ran across this podcast by the inimitable @jackcheng laying out the ENTIRE PROCESS of publishing a book from acquisition to tour. #Roaring20s I highly recommend--but good for any writer on what to expect when you're expecting a book!. https://t.co/TyBoUXN3E3
