Finishing things is such underrated writing advice. You need to learn your habits and what tools you use not just to have an idea or start a story, but to finish them. You need to get used to it, and then observe how you can do it better. That starts by finishing stories at all.
"What are the experiences of people of color in the publishing industry?"

my hot writing take is that playing with POV is neat and you can do what you want. present tense first! close third! first-person-direct-address with bits of omniscient third! anything is legal if you look good doing it!!
Things that trigger a flow state:
🧸 Sensitivity: You’re not “broken” or “too sensitive” — you’re an #artist whose medium is words.
🤺 Turning Adversity into Advantage: Meaning-making aspect of #creative work.

Things that trigger a flow state:
🪁 Imaginative Play: Focus on making your #writing sessions something you ENJOY!
❤️ Passion: I am always learning and growing as a #writer.
💭 Daydreaming: Stay connected to your writing project, and your brain will work on it even when you’re not writing.
Can we PLEASE stop telling authors to cut other languages from their books? I’ve talked to multiple authors told to remove the Spanish. 😠 If readers can figure out what a hobbit is or casually drop “valar morghulis,” they can context clue their way through a real language.
Only three days away!! Subs open March 12th! ✍️📚👀

I continue to be fascinated by the phenomenon whereby an expert engages with any of the LLMs on their field of expertise and is instantly horrified by the wrong answers, and then goes on to use it for things they are not experts in as though it won’t be just as bad for those.

Hi! Cussing/explicit language/explicit scenes are not an auto-reject at all! 😊 It's totally fine; I read all different kinds of books 😅👀

If there's not enough time for a person to do a developmental edit of your book, then they are likely not the right editor for you. You deserve an editor who knows your book, who has read every word, who cares about you and your goals.

🎉1 Week!🎉
The #RevPit submissions window opens in ONE WEEK, at 12 p.m. ET on March 12.
You're meeting our editors this week. We're answering your burning questions.
Is there anything else you'd like to discuss? Toss us your questions, and we'll do our best to answer them!
Every year I make a Spotify playlist for people to add songs to. Add a song or two that represents your book or writing! #RevPit #MeetTheEditor open.spotify.com/playlist/2ur...
kill the imposter syndrome in you head because not only is there someone out there doing it worse than you, they're also using chat gpt to do it
Anyways.
Time to start off my #MeetTheEditor session! I’m excited to chat with you all about my MSWL, editing process, interests, hobbies, whatever comes to mind.
Hi!! So sorry for the delay, I just found your Q deep in my notifications! Yes, a poly MlM dark(ish) dystopian romance absolutely sounds up my alley! And 120k is fine too. Let me know if you had any other questions 😊
Hi, thanks so much for your question! Yes, that totally sounds like a story I'd be interested in! I'd love to see some SFF/romance 😊
Hi! 😊 I'm up for all stories with speculative elements, from any inspiration source & from any time period! Anything w/ light or heavy SFF!
(& I do love traditional Earth-based HF but am not seeking it for RevPit.)
And sci-fi romcom retelling 👀👀 I'd love to see retellings with a new twist!
As for your WC question, we have this article on the #RevPit FAQ page. www.writersdigest.com/whats-new/wo...
Hi Revelers! It’s time for my #MeetTheEditor session. Here’s my intro video to get started.
Yes, I love butterflies. 🦋 #RevPit
A water lily on a pond is centered around its reflection. The text above it says: Reflections one year after winning #RevPit 2025: Below the water lily, the names "M" "Iris" "Marena" "Rakan" "Ree" "Nadine" and "Wera" float
When I submitted to #RevPit last year, I was curious about what happened to the previous year’s winners. In the comments below, a few folks from the 2025 cohort have reflected on their experience! We'd love to hear stories from others as well!
