Day 2 of a migraine and I’m about to crawl under my bed.

FYI, here’s a look at the current TBR. #queryupdate #amquerying

Just a reminder that I’m not opening to queries this month! #queryupdate #amquerying

Came back to share a fairy tale with a queer twist~ I wrote it 2 years ago from my friend @teddy-stonehill.bsky.social's prompt. Now I've shared the 1st part open on Patreon: www.patreon.com/posts/happil... Hope you enjoy! #fairytale #fantasy #sapphicfantasy #queerfantasy #shortstory #patreon

Loved having this conversation with @manuscriptacademy.bsky.social about what projects I’m hoping to see in my query inbox! Also, count how many times I start answering a question by saying “Ooooooooh…🤔”

Happy #MSWL Day! I’m looking to work with some great new authors this year! General MSWL is linked below, but here are some specifics I’d really love to see…

Add A WILD RADIANCE to your Goodreads shelf now, because this book is 🔥everything!🔥

We can't wait! We have new features lined up for #MSWL day Wednesday. We're hoping to make the ManuscriptWishlist.com profiles more useful for both your left (facts, genres, tags) and right (creative, visual, emotional) brain. About to do a final meeting with our tech team--wish us luck!

Hi all, just a reminder that unsolicited email queries are automatically deleted. #queryupdate

I don't usually post my inks, but I'm proud of this page!

Wheeeeeew, okay! Better get reading… #queryupdate

"The bans show a clear pattern of targeting authors of color, women and members of the LGBTQ+ community. Books that educate about racism, gender and history are most often the recipient of relentless censorship attempts." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

AAAAAHHHH!!! Look at sweet cinnamon roll Kieran!! 😍😍

Yall wanna do a cover reveal tomorrow?

Hey all! B&N is running a pre-order sale this week, with 25% off future releases. So now is a great time to gift your future self one of the below…

Reminder that Ranger Academy (all ages graphic novel!) features a nonbinary character. bookshop.org/p/books/rang...

Here’s DEPTH if you’re interested in a disabled, funny, determined girl making things worse for herself and others bookshop.org/p/books/the-...

Just a heads up that I’ll be closed to queries for March 2025 to catch up on reading. But I’ll be open as usual for both February and April! #queryupdate #querying

The U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights has announced that it is arbitrarily dismissing student and parent complaints arising out of public schools’ documented acts of censorship and discrimination. Our response: Book bans are real. Full statement ➡️ www.ala.org/news/2025/01...

A pinned post! Hi, my name is Brinson, and I'm a storyboard artist, comic creator, and writer. I draw Peter Griffin all day and my comic Even the Rocks at night! I like history and biking and kitties. :3 You can see more of my work at brinsonthieme.com.

Hello Writing Community! We are delighted to announce our First Official Bluesky *** #MSWL Day *** February 12, 2025. 🎉🎉🎉 Agents + editors can post what they ✨wish✨ they had in their inboxes; writers can find their next best fit for querying. Learn more here: manuscriptwishlist.com/the-next-off...

Happy New Year! I’m starting 2025 on a high by welcoming RuthAnne to Team ACM! Her romance novel, PANTS ON FIRE, is a fun modern riff on the 90s classic Liar Liar, and is so funny and smart and loaded with chemistry—I couldn’t put it down. I’m so excited to work together! #amagenting #newclient

Hello Friends! You can find the #MSWL agent and editor starter pack here: go.bsky.app/52ZEfjC Our hope is that this will help rebuild the community from, well, that former place. This is brought to you by our sister company, @manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social, and will continue to grow.

🎵It’s TIIIIIIIME! 🎶 I saw a lot of incredible queries in 2024, and my experiment of opening my inbox one week a month worked out well. I was able to stay on top of my inbox and meet my personal goal of getting my response times waaaaaay down. That said, I’m still going through Sept-Dec queries…

I sometimes listen to videos on my phone to fall asleep. My cat has not only learned how to close that app, but how to make FaceTime calls and play podcasts. My phone logs show two outgoing video calls at 4am and 3 episodes of the TED Radio Hour played. 😩

My holiday gift to me: assembling and installing this shelf to display client books. Feeling very competent at the moment (please, please don’t fall down 🤞).

Boosting this excellent advice!

I need people to understand that The Immeasurable Depth of You is like 300 pages of the Pepe the Prawn TikTok trend

Still struggling to find a gift for that hard-to-shop-for person? Might I suggest…a ✨book✨

It needs to be known that there is a Calcifer Yule Log on HBOMax, and I will be watching with a seasonal beverage.
