I think I've found a new writing project! Taking place on the hot savannah fields of Varranq, it'll be a fantasy entry inspired by tons of African mythology. With the first eight pages written, I've already fallen in love with the idea.

After being in the trenches for a couple months, I've decided to take a much more aggressive approach to querying. Whereas before I may have sent out five every week, I'm spending much more time doing research and really finding out which agents click with my work.

Right there with you! Here's to manifesting good things for the both of us!

As my birthday rounds the corner, I'm left reflecting on what I want from my writing in 2025. I'm so proud that I wrote 3 manuscripts in the last 3 years, but I want this to be the year I get published, and I'm going to keep the drive to make that happen.

Sounds like a myth to me!

Mine would go so bad, the things I write about do not mesh well at all with Disney ๐Ÿ˜†

Tea is alright sometimes, but honestly I would go with milk. It's my comfort drink for sure!

I'm always down to make new friends!

Seconded! This is so important, so much so that one should check it several times before final submission. Really making sure that everything is correct is huge.

Sounds like a lovely time! I'd be thrilled to have a meet at a cafe or something one day. Hope it's nice and productive!

A dying man doesn't believe he is dying and must be told several times that he is, in fact, dying.

Progress is progress, and that's still something to be celebrated!

Happy to announce that I've officially begun querying again! The first five are down, and I'll make it a weekly ritual to continue submitting. Super excited to see where it goes!

After my latest round of edits, I'm pleased to say that Draft Three of my WIP is now done! Up next is writing a query letter and synopsis. I can't wait to start it on submissions!

I feel on top of the world after revising Chapter Five today. This was the biggest area that needed changes, and the revisions fit the story so much better! Hoping to be done with this draft by the end of the week.

After some much appreciated feedback from my editor and beta readers, Draft Three has begun! This should be the final iteration before trying to publish.

Thanks! I think a third is in the works, there's still a couple major chapter revisions that I want to include, but this draft really cemented some of the concepts.

Draft Two of my novella is done and dusted, and it's being sent off to my editor right after this post!

Not bad! I think my journal might become longer than my actual project!

Yep! I've curated a list actually called my "inspirational playlist" from songs that make me feel some visceral emotion. Gets me motivated every time!

I can't wait to get out of work so I can just go home and keep editing. I'll just have to whittle away the hours by constantly thinking about it instead.

Introduce yourself with your worst feedback from school.

Hi, I'm Josh and I have too much passion.

Anyone know what umbrella genre dystopian fiction falls under? Sci Fi? Thriller?
