A little poem I wrote last night after some of the RevPit adrenaline wore off: Imposter syndrome Is a gargoyle Cemented On my shoulder Warping My posture While I write Yesterday My back straightened As I sat Landing On my other shoulder Was a raven A dragon And a cat #revpit #writesky

And finally, a special thank you to all of our 2025 First Readers! #RevPit

First of all congrats 🎉 to all the #revpit winners! 2nd. If like me you didn't win, are feeling a bit down and need some inspiration/love for your MS we do positivity passes in our discord! DM me for the link 😁 #camprevpit #revpitwaiting

EXCUSE ME WHILE I PANIC WITH EXCITEMENT. Was I eating popcorn at 9am when this announcement came in, fully expecting to cheer on everyone except for myself? Yes. Yes I was. A dream come true. WOW. I can't wait to get to work with @fromcarly.bsky.social #revpit

#RevPitWaiting If you’re disabled, please keep writing. Please keep sharing your lived experiences and wildest fantasies and first heartbreaks. Your stories and your voices matter so much. Write for the future you, for the younger you. Whatever the reason, keep writing. I want to read it all 💗

Y’ALL WE WROTE BOOKS!!! 📚 I think it’s something we can take for granted but like????? You created a whole new story or world from nothing?? Absolutely magic ✨ No matter what happens tomorrow, take some time to celebrate how amazing you are!!! #RevPit #RevPitWaiting

Thank you to the editors for providing amazing tips, feedback, and encouragement! Thank you to the first readers (not all heroes wear capes, but you should totally buy a cape). Finally, thanks to my fellow writers for being so supportive. I hope we can camp together! 🏕️ #revpitwaiting #revpit

My goals: 🍄 Finish new WIP (a mushroom-themed romantic fantasy) 🌱 Keep querying my cozy romantic fantasy (assuming I am not the RevPit chosen one) 📚 Read at least 5 full manuscripts for critique swaps 📖 Read at least 1 trad pub book per month for comp titles, inspo, and fun #revpit #revpitwaiting

Team Pantser! I probably fall on the 85% mark of the Pantser to Plotter spectrum (since everyone has to do at least a little bit of each when writing a novel). A detailed breakdown of my process that nobody asked for is in the comments! #revpitwaiting #revpit

Some folks are asking for CPs and betas as #revpit comes to a close (unless the mysterious editors have news and it doesn’t actually end 👀). Did someone start a writers’ discord that I could join, or should I make one to help folks coordinate future swaps? #revpitwaiting

Dolphins have more in common with humans than most of us realize. Their social structure is complex; they travel in tight-knit groups—called pods—but they form other relationships outside of them. #1stLinePit #WIP #A #R #CON 👇 Blurb, small Josie & Will profile, continued opening.

Kaveh moved through the forest in silence, his dark eyes trained upon the barely visible silhouette of his quarry. He froze as a pale flicker of light sprung to life, illuminating the face of his prey. Hovering above the man’s palm was a small blue orb. A Stitcher. #1stLinePit #A #F #WIP

SCI-FI BEAUTY & THE BEAST Roan’s wrist buzzed with an notification. “Do you, Camilla, take Jonquil to be your lawful wedded wife?” She pointedly ignored it, focused only on her mom and her partner of 12 years. 🏺Grumpy archaeologist 🤖Trapped billionaire ☀️The dying sun #1stLinePit #A #SF #R #WIP

He could almost see it. The star shone like a small golden marble through the lens of a pristine telescope he’d nicknamed “The Eye.” Three more clicks of movement and the sphere came into focus with an explosion of color which took Ballad’s breath away. #1stLinePit #Q #YA #F #SF #agentsguide
