question for #amquerying writers: what language do you put in your queries to communicate you do not consent for agents to feed your manuscript/pages into an AI 'detection' program and where are you putting it in your query/form? I'd appreciate any input since I'll be querying again very soon!

I’m kicking off HispanicHeritage Month with two 📚 by a Latinx author I know pretty well: me ☺️. My 📚 explore different aspects of identity, family, history & resilience. #Booksky There are so many wonderful authors and stories to celebrate and I’m excited to put some of them on your reading lists.
also while I'm on here, if any LA/SoCal friends are also going to this event on Oct. 3rd let me know! 😊 rarebooksla.com/rare-books-l...
planning to make my return to substack & newsletters very soon but in the meantime, the start of latinx heritage month is a great excuse to read what is maybe my best and most important piece on substack jcondenunez.substack.com/p/how-it-fee...
How it feels to be a Mexican-American “Diversity Scholarship” awardee at a writing conference when it's a dangerous time to be Latinx in the U.S.
Hello friends,
jcondenunez.substack.com

judging how 'fans' are reacting to the new rogue casting and how even a rando here put me on a blocklist a while ago after seeing my 'woke' pitch for my book that I comp as x-men meets bridgerton w/mexican mc's...I think I have great chances of selling my book through publicity of yt man tears alone
also hi it's been a long time since I've been active on bsky or the book space in social media, so let's play a wip game! 😊 comment with a word and I'll share a sentence featuring that word from my wip 🕷💋 (soon to be querying!)
I took this photo the same day as my last pfp but I think I like this one better now so new (but not so different) author photo moving forward 🖤
still alive but I forget to update on bsky 😅 more on what's been going on with me this summer + what I'm currently reading in this note 🖤 substack.com/@jcondenunez...

current read: The Haunting of Alejandra by V. Castro visceral, but such a necessary story to be told 🖤🥀 also excuse the unexpectedly long radio silence from me, l've been dealing with a serious heal...

Happy Pride! 🌈 Friendly reminder that the first story I got published in a mag was a queer sapphic YA story 🖤 and I will continue to incorporate my queerness in my writing projects no matter how 'unmarketable' queer stories are (and especially stories about queer BIPOC characters) ✌🏼
dusting off the cobwebs of this place a little...not quite yet back from my social media hiatus but...soon 👀
If you'd like to check out what I have cooking re: writing projects, make sure to read & sign up to my newsletter for exclusive insights 🌸 I also hope to get back to writing historical deep dives soon so let me know if there's a historical topic/question about my books you'd like me to yap about 😊

Hi all! It's been a while but here's a newsletter detailing what I've been up to the last month and a half (spoiler: not much because I was physically disabled from typing for 5 weeks) jcondenunez.substack.com/p/slowing-down p.s. who else has watched Pursuit of Jade? 😍
Slowing Down ☕
and why all querying writers should consider doing the same

Hi, I’m still on social media hiatus but hoping to get back to this space soon with news to share (hopefully) In the meantime I am currently wearing the same sweatshirt as in my pfp today (just to be cozy haha) and hoping Frankenstein gets some well deserved wins at the Oscar’s tonight 🖤
It appears as though SFWA has had a very quick change of heart and is now back on the right side of this. Shouldn't have happened in the first place. New Nebula Awards eligibility rules for generated text are now:
anyway, I took a bit of a break from bsky and I probably still won't be posting as often as I did before except to share fun things I make or share important announcements ✌🏼 last #wipwednesday on IG, since I mentioned it in a live chat, I shared a snippet of the most bisexual scene in TBOAD 💖💜💙
I've been on threads for <1 week and I hate to report that it's much like bsky in the way that discoverability & connecting w/other writers is difficult...but it's not even fun. at least bsky still has writer hashtag events & people sharing snippets. over there it's just CONSTANT shade throwing.
Found this draft for a substack article that I completely forgot about all about why classic Historical Romance tropes still work today but what I've already written is pretty good. Maybe I'll get back to it after the new year 😊
I don’t know if anyone even sees my stuff on here unless I include a hashtag (and I don’t like doing that because that mostly attracts bots and scam accounts) and it’s not a matter of me not knowing how to social media—it’s not enough people engaging with their own mutuals who don’t post daily
You may have missed my latest newsletter if you were too busy this Thanksgiving weekend, but I hope you give it a read because I wrote a lot about writing 'unlikable' characters 🍁 read here: open.substack.com/pub/jcondenu...
