Any time I work with a nonfiction client, I ALWAYS refer them to Eric’s resources. If you’re writing nonfiction, this workshop is absolutely sure to be gold.
Tomorrow begins the @/thirty30writingchallenge in place of #NaNoWriMo
I created a group but am sort of flying by the seat of my pants here (shocking)
Join! Let's encourage each other!!!

“Agents can’t possibly tell if they’re gonna love the book in just the first five pages!!!”
Right. But they can tell if it’s not right for them in that amount of time. Sample pages are a filtering tool, and if the agent isn’t hooked, then they’re never gonna fall in love the way they need to.
I don’t know why the pro-book-pirating crowd keeps popping up in my algorithm but I don’t support piracy.
Use your library. Shop used. Borrow from your friends. Ask for books/bookstore gift cards as gifts.
Unless you live in a place where the book is literally illegal:
Don’t. Steal. Books.
Today I told A Man what I do for a living and in the course of that conversation he laughed at the phrase “self published rapid release romances”
So, in case you need some spite and rage to fuel your work today 🫡
Today is one of the most important days of my career. I am publishing my debut novel this September. A Broken Heart of Blackened Stone is the first book in the Pirate Queen Chronicles, a trilogy about a shapeshifting princess who runs from grief but lands on the wrong side of the law.
