I just found out I’m on the cover of this week’s print issue of Publishers Weekly! Dyyying!! What a dream!!! Book releases March 5th!! 📚🥹🙏🏻💀🔥💔
Should I change my bio to: NYT Bestselling Author/📚 Publishing Expert/Publish & Promote/Book Results-Driven Literary Agent/✍️ Marketer Book Specialist/Platform Expert/Helping Authors /Professional Book Publisher/Kind loving❣️/Let’s chat /DM for tips/Drop your Cash App💰 🤦♀️😆🤦♀️
Me sending my manuscript to myself for backup be like… …who’s with me?! 😆📚
My huge deadline is August 18th so I am sooooo MIA on my socials… …I’m working like CRAZY… …but I love you guys!! 📚💀🔥🙌
Book mail from Blackstone Publishing! Wow!! I NEVER thought I’d ever hold an audio CD of one of my books!!💀🖤📚🤯💔
Hit page 100 of first pass edits! 13 yrs ago, I signed w/ my 1st agent—this book went on sub & died. I rewrote it again & again & AGAIN, but it never felt right. Now: it has a home & I FINALLY fixed the plot point that haunted me for over a decade. Some books just need time!💕
I’m scheduled to get new author photos soon…. Ahhhhhhhh… 💀🖤💀🖤💀🖤💀🖤💀🖤💀
Every time I get stressed about edits & start to doubt myself, I remind myself: I’ve done this before. I can do it again!! 📚🖤🔥📚🖤🔥
I’m currently doing my first pass edits & I’m not lying when I say I’ve been working on the same page for THREE days… I MUST get it right!!! 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠
I love love love love LOVE being tagged in bookshelf photos!! 🥹🙏🏻📚🔥🖤
I did it!!!! FINISHED!!! Tip-in pages signed & mailed off!!! 📦📃📚🖤 (Sorry for being cheesy! I just am!)
I get my edit letter today (for a book that hasn’t been announced yet!!) …This book had 11 offers of rep from agents through the years. Eleven. But still, it took years of sub failures to find the PERFECT home. DON’T give up on the book of your heart. Excited to share!!! 🥹📚
I’ve been in the writing community long enough to: —Mail full manuscripts w/ SASE —Join Yahoo critique groups —Twitter had stars instead of hearts —Rely on agent blogs (Hi, Nathan Bransford!)for industry news —Find agents w/ PRINT copy of Herman’s Guide —Save work on USB 😆🙌📚
About to sign 1000 tip-in pages for something big coming!!! Ahhhhhhh…. 👀🩰🔪🩸🔥📚🎉
Lake Como!! Still waiting to share incredible book news!! One thing in particular has to do with swans… 🦢👀💎🔥 I have multiple things falling into place behind the scenes and they’re ALL projects that I wrote a DECADE ago that just needed TIME… Publishing is not a race!! 📖
I was SO DELIGHTED to give a blurb for The Girl With The Fierce Eyes by @sophiavahdati … out with @HarperCollinsUK July 17th!!! SUCH an incredible book… I’m dying for book two. The world building… the characters… the book has STUCK with me. Go preorder!!! 🩵💎💙
I got to hang out with my agent & lit/film agent today!!! So much is happening behind the scenes with them I feel SO BLESSED to have such beautiful women on my side. It was worth the years of hardship to find them!! They truly are making my dreams come true. 🥹📚💪🏼🙌🔥🖤
HarperCollins asked me to blurb this beautiful book & it was INCREDIBLE!!! Devoured it! Will share more later! 🩵🔥💎 So excited for it to be out in the world! July 17th!! @HarperCollinsUK @SophiaVahdati
