@MadelynKnecht why is addiction included beside things like insecurity and being vain or judgemental are you kidding? I was told that unless I wanted to sanitise my FMC’s addiction representation for being ‘unrealistic’ I would need to self pub… signed an ex alco and now, indie author (lol)

@roryisconfused Oh this fucking poster lol. Pretentious ‘I’m better than everyone I went to art school with because I’m not a stinky liberal’ shit. Her poetry sucks ass lmao, genuinely reads like a fourteen year old who just learned about a thesaurus and white space

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@Rynox220 Ai has no idea how a 30 year old looks lmao

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@wildflwrnev The way white marble countertops don’t show fingerprints LOL any human would know this. Black marble, glass or stone, sure. Not white 😂

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@audrawrongspeak This is actually just how Australia is tho lmao

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@elonmusk We can’t afford to have more children because of fuckwits like you LOL

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@KBCox_15 Felt this. I’ve had 10 that are all lovely feedback on the craft/story etc. But alas I’ve written something undeniably unmarketable. LIKE wtf do I do at this point. Indie? BEST advice I have is get someone else to read yr work and see if their feedback fits before making changes!

OBEDI CORPUS (X-MEN x PARASYTE: THE MAXIM)

What if political power was granted by a parasite—and its rival was the hubris of past hosts?

FMC w/acquired vision loss. Troubled college kids. Dark Academia. Slow burn romance. They're all morally grey.

@WightCrow @kcdunfordbooks they send form rejections for fulls? i've never gotten a form rejection on a full. i think that would be the nail in the coffin lol but maybe i've just been super lucky so far

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@MAGHwrites @MadisonScalera It’s a shame, when I first started querying I had a really positive response and got a meeting for offer of rep, sent out msgs-but I ultimately didn’t take the offer! Soo. Those agents I reached out to probably think this is what I did lol. Lesson learned yall!

@blklilacc How it feels to watch the manosphere bros goon over the matrix

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@TanyaCliff1 @roo_richardson @EmersonCollege Oh this isn’t me choosing to do it. It’s required to pass. And yep, we have a minimum ‘2000 words’ handwritten notes to appendix too, again necessary to pass!!! I think it’s a great thing bc I’m a journaler so I’m in my element !

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@TanyaCliff1 @roo_richardson This has already been integrated into creative writing graduate studies (manuscript projects). After each session, whatever new stuff we’ve written goes in a doc with tracked changes - you leave a comment on the last line w/ date added. Further edits are done in a separate doc.

@thewriterjo Wait I keep seeing vague everywhere and have zero understanding of what it means 😭

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@vcrqueenjen The way I bartended at a queer bar for 6 years, have many trans friends and have actually never once had an issue, yet these middle aged Karen trumpies are so obsessed with toilets when they live in maga county with a bunch of other old white bogans absolutely boggles my mind

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@The_RomaArmy Lol what a non issue? Do you have a ring? Coz I do…. Nobody in relationships thinks about ‘50/50’ unless it’s an abusive relationship LMAOOO

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@rebleighauthor What is vague 😭 am I unc

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@mandibooktwt An ARC is WAYYYY too far in the process for this to slip through so many cracks 💀 no excuses for micro aggressive BS even being typed out in the first place, but even more surprising is that nobody through the line to near production didn’t flag it. Gross

[savdoesbooks @savdoesbooks]

@pippawestauthor Yepppp, that’s why I specify YA Crossover which is so hard to fit into with the emergence of NA!
