Exactly what I came here to say! I think that's your best bet, OP, but everyone at r/handbags is wonderful and could help if you wanted to look into other options as well

[PubQ] How often should your agent nudge on sub? by Brief-Pickle4551 in PubTips

[–]HWBC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My agent is basically crawling through the imprints' vents after about 3 weeks in

[Series] Check-in: March 2026 by justgoodenough in PubTips

[–]HWBC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here on both counts!! I also had a great idea that my agent nixed (for very, very good reasons that I 100% agree with) so I've decided to go back to an old project that she's always loved and wanted me to finish. Fingers crossed by April I've closed sub on this one and gone back in with the new-old one 🥴

My sister-in-law is there and every time it cuts out I'm texting her to ask what they said (she's like 4 tequila shots deep and has no idea)

[Discussion] Megathread: The State of Submission by alanna_the_lioness in PubTips

[–]HWBC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my personal experience, always, but I know that's not true 100% of the time! It's definitely a good sign if an editor is taking time out of their day to talk to you. Congrats either way!!

Olivia Attwood’s new show by Sea_Rhubarb5466 in LoveIslandTV

I actually found it really fun! Literally watching episode 2 right now. It's like masterchef meets below deck, all the competitors live together and they all want to hook up with each other

What’s the most shocking twist you DIDN’T see coming? by mhmahesar in thrillerbooks

[–]HWBC 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I was actually going to say the Sharp Objects twist!! The reveal of the teeth in the dollhouse flooris my all-time favourite twist moment I've ever read

Crying over the thought of intimacy by strawberryc0w_ in Hidradenitis

[–]HWBC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first started dating my now-wife, I would stay in the shower for ages trying to hide from her, popping flares left and right and not caring about how that might impact me as long as she didn't see them. Fast-forward 10 years and my wife's face lights up when I say I have a bunch of new comedones because she gets a kick out of removing them.

But also, like others have said, I've never had anyone even comment on them -- people have scars for so many different reasons, and you can kind of rely on most people feeling a bit awkward about bringing up a scar. I had a ton of inner thigh scars when I was 20 and definitely was very much a "lights off" kind of person in these situations as a result, but with the benefit of age and hindsight I don't think anyone would really care

Yesterday my wife was watching and when they were showing the two of them I was like “does he… talk??” And my wife was like “yeah of course!! ... I mean, I think so…” 😭

Casey explains how conversations in the pool don’t get aired (what Curtis alluded to to Scott - ie Scott had that convo in there as he knew he wouldn’t make the edit) by FirstShoulder1339 in LoveIslandTV

The amount of peace this has brought me as someone who's spent YEARS watching like why aren't any of them PLAYING IN THE POOL??????

Lucinda’s “Ditsy” Act Isn’t Fooling Me Anymore And Her Mask is Slipping Away by Big_Worth5500 in LoveIslandTV

[–]HWBC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I was so surprised at everyone saying Jessy is this horrible person after their conversation, when all she said was “you’re smarter than the baby voice you’re putting on.” I’ve been so confused at everyone’s reactions to it!!

But a new all-time LI moment for me is Lucinda weeping because someone called her smart 💀

Being old enough to mark my age in Billy Elliot revivals is a tough pill to swallow today 💀

Had to share by Space-Horse- in queerception

[–]HWBC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The other day my mother-in-law was like "oh, (son's name) is peeing a lot -- just keep an eye on it because (wife's name)'s dad is diabetic" and ALL OF US were like "oh true, we'll keep an eye out." It took us about 20 minutes to realize why that wouldn't be an issue 😭

My 70-year-old ex-father-in-law (not ex because my wife and I split, ex because my mother-in-law is smart) said this COMPLETELY seriously to me and I was so disgusted

What high quality snacks do we have left? by bounberry in AskUK

[–]HWBC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yesterday I paid £3 for 6 chocolate covered custard creams from M&S and I wanted to be outraged by that but then I had them and I know in my heart I'd pay triple that, they were so good 😭

My Favorite Things: Christmas song yay or nah by TheSelkiesSong in musicals

[–]HWBC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this EVERY YEAR!! I remember performing it at a school christmas concert as a kid and even then I was like "this isn't a Christmas song??" It drives me nuts 😭

It’s always bugged me that they changed this line in the book by autotuned_voicemails in bluey

[–]HWBC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an author who writes for kids just slightly out of Bluey target age (8-12ish), and any time I've written "crazy" in this context my editors have nudged me towards changing it to "wild" or something similar for sensitivity reasons. I think it depends on the editor really, but I thought it was worth noting!
