Scaredy-cat but reads mostly horror. Lactose intolerant but eats mostly ice cream. Now you know too much.

@ArlingtonISD What in the actual hell? The pediatric ICU beds are full in North Texas and you went with this?

Texas here. Why does anyone still like this man? #TedCruzFliesToCancunWhileHoustonFreezes

Is it possible to write amazing, mind-blowing novels but be total shit at query letters? Asking for a friend. #WritingCommunity

I am ridiculously productive in my writing when I’m stressed. NaNoWriMo for Nov 2020? This might be the only time I’ve ever succeeded. Thank you US politics! #writingcommunity

@IAmEthanHealey Cabin in the Woods. You have no idea what’s going on at all for the majority of the movie and man I love that. Being able to guess the ending is a sure way to make a movie suck. 😂

@Hydedriver It’s brilliant. You either find something amazing in one compartment of your life OR you become a badass at rejection. Win/win.

Me finishing #Folklore.

Husband: How was it?

Me: <mouth open unable to find the words>.

Husband: <sigh> What did Taylor make you feel this time?

Me: Everything. Nothing was spared.

@hmkstories @DebraTorresBook @lori_z_scott @ruthmeyerauthor @imhenryblack @AuthorLauAnders Michael Chrichton! 26 novels. Sphere, The Andromeda Strain, Congo! Can’t go wrong there. 😁

@DebraTorresBook If I could pick only one author for a year it’d be C.S.Lewis....great fiction AND nonfiction!

How about you?

Random story idea: A vampire who trolls American suburban homes bc they all have kitschy welcome signs outside their door, therefore she needs no formal invite to enter.

@Hydedriver I finally watched the first episode after every friend told me to. Underwhelming to a ridiculous degree.

[PrettyDarkLit @PrettyDarkLit]

@BelleArboreus LOL lucky! The blaring country music prevented any rest.

Anyone else have a childhood where your parents insisted you weren’t appreciating the view on road trips bc your head was always stuck in a book?

And the view was like, Kansas?

@Foxphorescence Yes!! Why?!

I feel like the better I get at writing, the worse I get at speaking.
Just me?

[PrettyDarkLit @PrettyDarkLit]

@CrystalVWriting Yessss! I’m gonna start thinking that after every rejection too!

[PrettyDarkLit @PrettyDarkLit]

Last NYE I made a resolution. By Dec 31 ‘19, I’d have a complete book and a query letter out to agents. For the first time EVER, I followed through. As of today - 3 rejections and waiting on 4 more responses. Honestly, I’m thrilled. ☺️
