Failure is part of the process. No one cares about your failures. No one wants to talk about your unsold manuscripts or the drafts that didn't work before they finally did. Your successes will define you. So don't be afraid to fail. Fail, fail, and fail again. It's the only way to find success.

Okay, everyone Google “tipsy” and watch what happens. It’s neat.

Querying writers: just your regular reminder that I had two periods of not being able to get published for years on end and now I've sold half a million copies. Don't give up.

Character *is* choice. Backstory and quirks are only window dressing if they don't inform the choices the characters make that propel the story. The more interesting the choices, the more interesting the character. And often times, audiences want characters making different choices than they would.

Happy owl getting some love..🦉😊

Best part about writing is the friends you make along the way

I’m terrible at positive self talk, so sometimes when I’m feeling bad about myself I imagine what my dog would say about me at a dogs-only cocktail party where everyone is standing around talking about their owners, and honestly it’s just the best little life hack
