@TheGiftOfLife19 I think we can choose our emotions to a degree. Not as much in the moment though. If we do the inner work required to know who we are and what matters, and to understand and let go of our egos, what once would evict a profound emotion no longer will.
@LoriHayesAuthor I've been riding since I was 8. Plenty of amazing experiences and plenty of crappy ones too. Stomped feet, falling off, sprained neck, bruises, etc. Fortunately I never broke a bone. But I love them and the good outweighs the bad for me.
@jake_fluekiger The group should critique your work in a constructive way so as not to put you down. Also, find/create a group that writes in your genre/age range. People who read/write adult literary might not be able to effectively critique fantasy/sci-fi or YA/mid-grade, and vice versa.
OK #amquerying and queried since 2020 folks! I'm looking for 200 of you to fill in this spreadsheet! I'm hoping by calculating our request rates, we can find a more accurate number and stop feeling sad if it's not 25-60%. I have included agent request rates per QT
I'm getting so much support from all you #writers. I'm trying hard to keep up & follow all the #authors back. I'm so close to 3k followers. If I get there, I'll give away a free #query critique! If you retweet this, you're automatically entered in the random drawing for it!
@WriterSelenaP It doesnβt have to be, but thereβs been a lot of women who have been abused in this kind of relationship. So red flags abound. Now you can say that about any relationship, but polygamy, specifically polygyny has a reputation of abuse toward women.
@_p_rittenhouse Spin a globe, close your eyes, stop it with your finger. Repeat until you stop on a place that is not the middle of the ocean. Go there.
@WriterSelenaP There's nothing wrong with poly relationships. I've been in one. But polygamy is not polyamory. Polygamy is a controlling situation where the man has many wives and the wives are subservient.
