Everyone needs to be sucked into the mind warp that is ONCE UPON A TIME.
Disney actually already did a non-white Rapunzel and she looks FINE. You can still very clearly recognize her. The hair’s length is the only important physical trait

There really should be an option to eliminate AI from search engines. We desperately need that filter option . Especially Pinterest. It's ruining the vibes tbh.

A big culture shock for me in this western world is friendship culture. There seems to be a thing where you're not allowed to be inconvenienced at any point in time not for friends or family. The whole you don't owe anyone anything vibes suck. We weren't raised like this.
She backed out of attending her best friend’s wedding at the last minute, but her reason was totally justified… wasn’t it?

Only yt people can say reading isn't political because they get to live in a bubble of fun and games as the world's victors of wars they raged. And they get to be cutesy while the rest of the world struggles to survive in the hell they made.

This is the eviliest thing I've ever heard.
Finding out that the kidnapped girls are Muslims makes me a feel a little better. Hopefully they get released soon but it’s relieving to know it’s not a Christian family that’s going through that.

Throwback to this fairytale moment when I predicted getting a book deal in 12 months (read as prayed) and did it! Extra special cause I didn't even have an agent then! And now FIRSTBORN OF THE SUN is coming out with Penguin Michael Joseph next year!. I'm a Penguin Author🐧☀️🧡

Underrepresented stories are not white stories with black characters. The story arcs, the character motivation, the plot, everything is different. So know what you're asking for when you say you want underrepresented voices. Also know that if you don't 'connect' with them. 1/2.

“The function, the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being. Somebody says you have no language and you spend twenty years proving that you do.

Sucks that Kate has cancer, sucks that the palace let the rumours drag on when they could have released a statement the same way they did for Charles. I really thought they had canned her or she was in danger cause the way they were doing soft release for the side chick phew. .

I don't like when people say. Oh we don't write for the money. Doesn't matter what I write for. If I write and someone buys, I expect to be fairly and wonderfully compensated. Imagine romanticizing being underpaid?!.So while I may not write for the money, I sell for the money.

In my book, Firstborn of the Sun, fire also heals and it's so amazing to explore both sides
One day we're gonna have a story about "fire people" where fire is reflective of a compassionate, non violent culture. Where fire is mostly used to heal and catarize wounds, to be a guiding light in darkness, to bring warmth to the cold, and to "purify" meals.

You need MONEY to self publish.
Why do people still put themselves through the time & misery of querying? Why you don't self publish instead? It's easy (hard work though), no gatekeeping, no timekeeping, no changing your story, no putting up with a cover you hate, keep MUCH larger % of your book earnings. Tell.

The problem may be that you don't read enough of these different stories for them resonate or you don't really want these stories but it's nice to say you do.These stories are underrepresented for a reason & often require exploring different definitions of what makes a good story.

For everyone querying who's stressed/ feeling like you need a connection to get an agent or have met them before or feels out of place for not being in the right places, I got my agent by cold querying via query tracker, I had never interacted with her, and she's the best ✨.
