#questpit !! 🇱🇧

Here's the contemporary romance I'm querying live from the heart of Lebanon where Riwa and Samer fall in love while facing the biggest economic crisis Lebanon has ever known.

🌊Features book & antique cafés, a cruel summer, and the chaos of the early 20s.

writing update: this first draft is garbage currently. cant wait to rearrange it all like a puzzle to make it work. halfway through now!

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

bro yall bullied a girl off this app bc she asked for advice on how to read classics WHICH ***ARE*** harder to read than contemporary? WHAT IN THE INTELLECTUAL SNOBBERY WAS THAT???? I'm so disgusted

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

oooh id love to give my own take on this but I'm afraid not many ppl would see it😭🙏

[drew 🪶🔞 hyunchanlix enthusiast @m1nyards]

I know there is discussion about classics being hard, which can be very true, and not knowing where to start so here is thread about getting into classic literature, coming from a senior english literature major who does not recommend Dorian Gray as your first classic

@kieracass It was the first book I ever purchased from a bookstore!! And I read the elite in one evening!😭 I was gathering pinterest memes like crazy😔🙏 will always have so much love for it

@charliesshark Breeze* lmao im abt to nap

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

@charliesshark Read famous one while listening to the audiobook (famous ones like p&p have amazing audiobooks on spotify). Once u get used to the language, you'll be able to breathe through them easier

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

@charliesshark @judesgreatwar ^^^ to add to what i said, start by listening ALONGSIDE reading to get used to the old style. Combo of seeing + hearing is the best way to acquire the language. (yes im an english teacher😭😭)

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

yall could never make me hate the selection😔🙏

Nobody understands the bond between a girl and the mediocre book she read when she was 13 years old.

@jenchentran Thank youuuu!!💗💗

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

Life update: I received my first full request last week after querying for 9 months!😭

btw, I was at the gym on leg day😭🙏

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

rejection before the 24hour mark. amazing🙏

ngl at such moments im like why did i even bother😭

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

can authors stop using the word alpha in romance i BEG

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

the thing is if they wrote that book THAT quickly.... 😂💀

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

@bookbarrista Can we query 2 different manuscripts/genres? For example, can I query my contemporary romance and a work of poetry in separate queries?

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

@srfurney thank you for the giveaway!

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

@ehsleeta I'm so down!

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

i have such a curious question. should u be querying different things in different genres at the same time? like i could be actively querying romance, poetry, and children's books rn. but idk if it's a good route to take #amwriting #amquerying

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

my current book could go in so many directions and each would need me to write a different version of the 2/3 of the book. i'm so confused as to which direction to take #amwriting

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

life update. still in the query trenches

[murielle is querying @muriellexs]

sometimes it feels like no one will pick up that book fr
