I wish someone would just tell me what I'm doing wrong. Is it the query letter? Is it the opening? The voice? The plot? The characters? I just don't understand why nothing is working. Am I just that unlucky? Am I sending to the wrong people? Is there really no place for my story?

FACT CHECK

Trump: “Biden is a very bad Palestinian.”

TRUE: Biden is far too alive to be a Palestinian.

@GoodReadsMob @BBNYA_Official Thank you!

[Varun Gwalani @varunug]

Don’t know if anyone’s caught this, but the line “even statues crumble when they’re made to wait” from “The Prophecy” is most likely a reference to “Ozymandias”, a poem by Percy Shelley, about a mighty King whose statue and kingdom was ground to dust by time.
