OMG! I finished my story plan of Janey Book 5!!! After 4.5 hours at 3 cafes and bars with sweetie working on epigraphs for his story. Yummy drinks and food, but no alcohol. I can’t drink. Period. Makes me feel ill. But I like to write at bars and set scenes in them.

Yesterday I was watching a youtube on recent breakthroughs in biology and not one women scientist was interviewed. Dude. WTF. Shall I call him out publicly or just write him a private note? Still deciding. My inclination is to go public but... I hesitate.

This story is amazing. Please RT! I love how it highlights how something so insignificant seeming as small talk is a very important part of the social glue that helps us feel seen, heard, and valued. I see you. How about the rain, eh?

Would it help that an author friend of mine got her agent on the 101st query? That person is Sophie Littlefield . She tried her hand at different genres, kept querying, & she didn't give up. Good idea to set aside the bk & start a new one.

I was born without all my fingers but don't think of myself as disabled because this is all I've ever known. This is why I relate to
#differentlyabled
. Someone said this term is offensive to disabled people. But we are not monolithic. We each have a preference. Thoughts? Be nice.

A2: Define your genre and be specific. Don’t just say “romance.” Say “historical Victorian-set romance”. Not “mystery” but “scifi mystery” like what I write :) What is your genre?
