Rise & Shine #CRPSirens ☀️ My relationship with writing has changed over the years, & each project has required different things from me. Sometimes it was sneaking in a sentence on my phone during a sliver of nap time or scribbling in a journal in the dark hours once the littles went to bed. Cont⬇️
With my first manuscript, I wasted all my full requests on a very drafty draft. I’m determined to not let that happen again and will use the same scheduling intensity to make sure I go through three full drafts and feel fully confident in my querying version!

Love this! I am an @jamiattenberg.bsky.social #1000wordsaday alum! I started last May and finished my first manuscript in August. I started my second one a couple months ago. When I’m drafting, I just never skip a day!! My intense personality has to pay off at some point, right? 😅

Hi, #CRPSirens! I’m Liz. Nice to meet y’all. I’m working on my second manuscript. I’m set to finish in mid-May! It’s book club fiction about a queer woman whose wife’s pregnancy pushes her to her own experimental bodily transformation. 💉♥️
Good morning #CRPSirens 🧜🧜♀️🧜♂️ I’m Nadine & I write romantic fantasy books. My book, MYTH, MUSE, MAGICIAN just hit the query trenches & I’m working on my next project which includes a second chance romance, women in STEM, only-one-textbook, and a MMC with a devastatingly-sharp jawline 😏 (Cont. 🧵)
