Hi!! If any of my mutuals are available, I would love another pair of eyes on the first chapter of my MG horror, I'm currently doing a lot of revising and can use the feedback 🩷 my DMs are open too if you would rather message me instead of comment

I ❤️ writing #PB’s that tug at the heartstrings, but every now and then, I just have to whip up something silly and comical! Just uploaded my WIP for my agent... and I’ve got a feeling the ending will have her doing a double take! 👀😂🍰 #WritingCommmunity

Yesterday, I revisited an old #PB idea. Now I'm excited to share that my new WIP will be brimming with MAGIC✨ Through an epic quest, little ones will discover the value of home—learning that sometimes the best adventures lead you right back to where you started. 🏡💫
