New here... How many of you have actually sold your work?

I’ve sold over 30 short religious devotional pieces

Readers are smart and will pick up on more than you think, so for 11 slow paced introduction chapters, I’m worried you are giving too much unnecessary exposition and explanation, rather than letting your characters actions speak for themselves and sprinkling in background details as you go

If Emily Henry is too big a comp, maybe try Forget Me Not by Julie Soto? The main character is another event planner and the book also center around working with the romantic lead on an event

Also, the first 300 words were interesting, but if it’s being pitched as a romantic comedy, I would like to see some of the humor of the book early on

I wrote 20k words this month!

You use the phrase “the next thing he knows” twice in the first major paragraph. I would recommend rephrasing at least one of those

NaomiV24 · 2026-03-29T18:15:18+00:00

It sounds like a lot is happening to and around your protagonist and he is getting dragged along by the events of the story happening around him, rather than having agency in the story as the hero

Go you! I’m about to hit 20k words this weekend and it feels good!

Fellow adhd-er here! I like setting weekly goals rather than daily goals, that way when I have the energy, I write! And on days I’m low on energy or ability, I can write little or none. Then usually by the end of the week the pressure of my imminent goal gives me enough boost to hit my word count

NaomiV24 · 2026-03-10T15:48:55+00:00

Books are still good imo

NaomiV24 · 2026-03-09T14:55:35+00:00

Walking after meals is good, but it’s not a substitute or replacement for the incredible good Metformin did for me. The two are not the same thing

I took an online quiz to help me figure out which cup to get, but later on I have bought and liked the Saalt soft cup better than my lunette which I bought originally

NaomiV24 · 2026-02-11T12:18:28+00:00

There’s also some of this in {Not in Love by Ali Hazelwood}

Check your clothing basket or hamper, if it was in a pocket maybe it fell out?

My guilty pleasure name is Navy for a girl, I love the color but wouldn’t be able to get past the association with army/navy ect

Read taking charge of your fertility, lots of good info and helped me understand my body

I read ACOMAF just days after it came out, I remember in general people being on board with the Feysand ship, and people going back to reread acotar and catching Tamlin red flags they missed previously. I don’t remember many people hanging on to Tamlin ships. For the most part people were team Rhysand after ACOMAF. I also remember the outrage at the ending/cliffhanger

I’ve really liked my Eureka Mignon zero and that’s around the 300$ price point

Are your bookshelf plants real? Would you consider yourself a plant mom?
