MHexyl Did The Thing! (A #DVPit Update)
I wasn’t actually planning on doing an update just yet but something just happened that made me super emotional:
The number of requests I’ve gotten from agents/editors at #DVPit for my current project has now surpassed the number of rejections I got on my first novel when I queried in 2017.
I just...I remember the moment two years ago (2 years!!) when I finally sat down and told myself that my writing wasn’t quite up to par and it was time to stop querying and just write another book. And I did. And now there are agents I would frankly die to work with and editors at houses I’ve only ever dreamed of being published by who want to see my work.
So if you’re struggling right now with hating your writing or feeling like this road is taking you nowhere, KEEP GOING. Keep writing! I was 16 when I said I wanted to be published by 21. 22 when my first book died quietly in the query trenches. And now I’m 24 (as of 2 days ago!) and understand that there is no timeline to follow, no goals list to check off by X age. There’s just your journey.
At the end of the day, a pitch contest is just an opportunity and a way to connect. At this point, it could still go nowhere. It could go nowhere. But by God, right now, it feels like I’ve gotten somewhere.
oh the joys of revising while tired and not quite double-clicking so the cursor just lands in the middle of the word instead of selecting to delete it
hey uhhh quick question does anyone want to tell me how the rest of this book goes because I currently have no clue
me: hits roadblock in my research
my brain: HA I knew it you’re a terrible scientist
me: figures things out over time and surmounts roadblock
my brain: wow this is gonna be so embarrassing when everyone finds out you’re a FRAUD and keep getting by on flukes

time to open that query critique I got a while back but have been avoiding out of fear :’)
Since increasing my presence on social media (in the writing sphere), my productivity with actual writing has....tanked. Coincidence? I think not.
I NEED the final book to NK Jemisin’s Broken Earth trilogy like...yesterday, but I don’t want to buy it off Amazon so here’s to hoping I can drag myself out of the house tomorrow to buy it from a bookstore
