🎭 Character tip: Your protagonist should have flaws. Perfect characters are boring! Give them fears, bad habits, or internal struggles to make them feel real. #WritingCommunity

Conflict drives story. If a scene feels slow, ask: “What does my protagonist want here, and who/what is in their way?” No conflict = no tension.

Plot holes? I prefer the term ‘mystery elements I’ll fix later.’

Writing a book is 10% inspiration, 90% staring at the blinking cursor. 😅

💡 Your book doesn’t have to be perfect—it just has to exist. You can fix words. You can’t fix a blank page.

I’ve seen several posts lately with agents leaving their agency or the industry. If you’re an author recently affected by this, please know that I’m open to queries & would love to take a look at what you have. But mostly, I’m sorry and I’m sending hugs and warm wishes. ❤️
